Comments Thread For: Daniel Jacobs Wins By TKO in Five, Chavez Jr. Retires in Corner

[TJ highway]

If Jr has any dignity left he will retire quietly. ˇPinche! Jr!

[Corelone]

No Danny, you didn't do your job. You need to tell Hearn you don't want to ride in the clown car.

Chavez: Refused drug test, so promoter coddled him & moved fight, badly blew weight, gave up $1M of purse, had awful hair day, still cheered by crowd, fought OK for 2 rds, outright quit, left ring being pelted by beer/trash, made excuses about phantom fouls, asked for rematch.

Don’t mean to brag but I called this exactly as it happened two days ago. Jacobs landing massive hooks on the inside and Chavez quitting on his stool.

Oh ok, is that what was going on? I wasn't able to catch any of the card before this and just thought I missed Gabe and was going to rewatch after the main.

He had a late change of opponent so was scheduled to go on after the main event.

Jacobs talking about JavezJr being a cruiserweight wasn't realy classy, dont remember Golovkin complaining about Jacobs's weight after their fight

Hearn doesnt know anything about the US market. BIG FIGHTS DON'T GO TO ARIZONA! EVER!

The fuck?? Fans threw **** at Manny Pacquiao when he got the BS decision in the third fight with Marquez. Should they not have big fights in Las Vegas because of it?

Phoenix is the 5th largest city in the US; putting major cards there is a great idea. Booking a sideshow like Chavez Jr in a top-level matchup, as opposed to a showcase, was where it went wrong. Should have had Chavez fight Rosado tbh.

I'm kinda surprised by the Phoenix fans.

Nothing to do with Phoenix fans, everything to do with Chavez. It happened to him before in California, when quit against Fonfara.

I'm kinda surprised by the Phoenix fans. I thought they were more friendlier. I've been to other sporting events when I lived there and fans from other teams were more rowdy and cheered louder than the home fans.

Nothing new from Chavez Jr. I'm glad his own fans turned on him this time (minus the part where they throw bottles in the ring).

Chavez was not motivated. It was written all over the place since he started complaining to the ref.
He wanted out and he took the opportunity.

Just got home from this **** fight. Chavez is a coward. It’s been a bad couple fights for Mexicans. First Ruiz comes in like a blob, didn’t even prepare and looses title against a chicken **** Joshua. Now Chávez. This dude is and has always be a biznatch. I did have a fight break out just after the fight. Someone threw a beer and hit the dude next to me. Seen other dudes lady get stomped out. Crazy stuff.
