Comments Thread For: Jacobs Faces $1M Penalty, 3 Pounds Overweight At 2nd Weigh-In

[bigdunny1]

Not a fan of GGG and I was rooting for Jacobs in that fight but I said it then it was a dirt bag move by Jacobs and defended GGG on that one. And I will be clear again I don't like GGG. But it's not cheating! Bush league? yes but it wasn't cheating against GGG and it's not cheating now that Jacobs has done it once again against Canelo.

He's definitely doing it for an advantage but there is no rule that says you can't it's just bytch made to agree to something, promote the fight agreeing to it then on the sneak tip pull this stunt. But he was willing to give up the IBF belt by doing it last time and there was a penalty out in place as a deterrent this time and he said phuk it I will pay the penalty. So it's not cheating but I don't want to ever hear anymore about how Jacobs is some classy guy when he has twice done this bullshyt. He smiles in your face but secretly plotting to do dirt. He's like a Derek Fischer motherphuker who used his kids to get out of contracts and boned one of his teammates wife's but did it with a smile to fool the media and fans. lol

The hipocrisy of the people celebrating that a cheater needs extra weight to win a big fight.

Jacobs did this against GGG too.

He is a fu.cking disgrace to this SPORT.

And it's not a man, he does not have Word of man.

Exactly. People just really want Canelo to lose regardless of it being by hook or crook. **** Danny for doing this in both of his big fights. If you have a problem with it don't agree to the ****ing stipulations in the first place.

So f☆☆☆ed up how Golden Boy can make such a rule anyway, why would Jacob's agree to it? Jacob's should just have told them to go f☆☆k themselves. Canelo is the one desperate to fight for all the belts so without Jacob's he wouldn't get that chance so he should take it or leave it. Hope Jacob's beats the living crap outta Canelo..he deserves it.

Good for him. Smart long term investment. Even if he still loses, but just performs slightly better, performing better still leads to more opportunities and bigger money in the future than performing worse. And at that level, "bigger money" adds up to 1 mil very quickly.

Ppl will also know your a liar???? Anyone that fights Jacobs in the future best be ready for some shenanigans....

[Senor_frogs]

That’s good. This way Jacobs won’t have any excuse on why he lost. 175lbs Yeah right. He’ll be closer to 190lbs by the time he steps into the ring.

Fair enough. I was in my feelings the previous thread so my apologies

No need to be. We should all be forcing DJ to go for the ko. Any other strategy would be counterproductive.

[TheUntouchable]

He's not cheating he's following the contract he signed. If you don't make weight second day you pay a penalty. He's paying the penalty which is provided for in the contract. He made the weight 160 that is stipulated by the NSAC and the boxing commissions.

If anything this contract bull**** is cheating. No respect for those dogmoves, no matter if it's Mayweather or Canelo.

[bigdunny1]

I just want a action packed fight. Jacobs better not "run" & try crying robbery as hes been sounding like hes gonna do. I can honestly care less about their weight as long as Jacobs makes a good fight & doesn't cry afterwards that he was robbed(inevitable for most fighters after losing unfortunately)

He can't scream robbery after pulling this stunt. He lost the moral high ground.

The canelo hate is strong with you racist clowns

He really did a number on you noobs with dismantling of ggg huh

Lmao boy you came outta wayyyyyy left field with that bs. I have no hate whatsoever for nelo. Hell, I like the fact he's fighting good comp...albeit with these rehydration clauses. But i call it how I see it. Jacobs had to sign that rehydration clause to get the fight. Now he is tryna give himself the best chance to win. Its established that its tough to beat him on the cards or by ko. So the least jacobs could do is come into the fight at a comfortable weight. Sacrifice a bit to hopefully gain a lot. I cant be mad at that

You obviously don't even realize that Jacobs has to meet this exact stipulation in his prior IBF fights. So all gbp did was say he & canelo BOTH have to abide by the same as hes been doing. You hate canelo THAT much to use this as a way to hate on him? Whatever happened to Canelo supposedly being a cruiserweight who can only win by weight bullying opponents by blowing up to 190? It WAS BS thats what happened
