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

By throwing **** at anybody and everybody? You got to be pretty ****ing ****** to be pissed off at a promoter for selling you a "product" you know is ****ty. Chavez's track record is very known. I'd be hard-pressed to believe that many people were going in blind as to what Chavez is capable of doing, or not doing. Imagine going to a movie that you were "sold" on, find out the movie sucks, then proceed to go around and slap everyone in the movie theater to vent your frustration. That would be ridiculous.

It's good that the crowd voiced their displeasure. In the end it's their money that is fueling purses and network profits.

Maybe it will send a message that promoters and fighters need to be more responsible with the show they provide to paying customers.

I swear khan and Chavez jr need to go to the hall of fame for being the only boxers able to get paid to just show up to fights and quit.

I am glad I could vote in the poll after the fight ended.

It's like I am a time traveler!

Dude got a bloody nose and quit

what happened with the rosado fight?

I don't know if the Rosado fight happened but they stilll have some fights going on right now.

I am soooooooo sick of this DAZN BS! This is why the Bobfather says Hearn doesnt know anything about the US market. BIG FIGHTS DON'T GO TO ARIZONA! EVER! Throwing beer and water bottles in the ring?? WTF?? I hate the fact that Danny Jacobs went over to DAZN and is letting Hearn ruin his career. Looking at him frightened during the post fight in ring interview that something was going to hit him in the head was sickening. First, they put him the Canelo fight KNOWING he would'nt win without a knockout and just giving up his belt was bad enough, then they let him fight a PROBABLE PED CHEAT who came in overweight and quit in front of his father is just the icing on the cake. I think this was Danny's last fight under matchroom. If so, he needs to go back to PBC with big money AMERICAN fights on FOX or SHOWTIME with Charlo, Caleb Plant, Benevidez etc. Andrade (who's getting disrespected over on DAZN as well) needs to go to PBC. Man, with Chavez jr quitting, Andy Ruiz partying, Canelo ducking and Mikey clout chasing, this whole Mexican warrior mantra is starting to be debunked. You guys gotta bring back the kings, Erik Morales, Chavez SR, Juan Marquel Marquez, de la hoya and Salvador Sanchez. Then you can restore the feelings!

They got fleeced out of their money by a promoter and a quitter. Of course they're going to vent.

This is exactly why people need to stop paying to see Chavez Jr fight. If he' guaranteed to make $3m every fight without giving his all, training is tail off, respecting the fight game, and ultimately respecting the fans, why continue to enable the guy?

On another note: DAZN nor any other big fights (no matter the network) will WANT to fight in Phoenix ever again. That was a disgrace. You boo the person you don't like, you NEVER throw things into where these professionals display their art.

Eddie Hearn shares some of this guilt as well as he does not ALWAYS care about boxing itself. It's the spectacle. It's the story. Anything that creates a story or stirs the pot, he wants in. That, in and of itself, is not so bad. Afterall, he is a promoter at the end of the day. However, when you go through great lengths for a fighter (based on the crowd Chavez can bring out) you had better be sure the person you're bending backwards for can deliver and ultimately worth it. Think about it: He tells Chavez his purse is $3m (chavez tests positive), he says he will move it to Phoenix (chavez missed the weight limit by a large margin), he says the fight is still on (chavez pulls this). He wanted a spectacle and paid dearly for one. SMH

And they ruined getting another shot at having boxing in that city by acting like classless ****s. Casuals or not, you don't throw **** at people who had nothing to do with Chavez quitting.

Junkfood Seizure Shoplifter, Jr. was out of breath after two rounds. Then the complaining to the ref started.

Funniest sight in boxing 2019. . .Jr. exiting the arena in disgrace wearing Mickey Rourke on his back like some kind of greasy hipster bear pelt. . .
