    I'm not talking about his image INSIDE the ring, I'm talking about his image OUTSIDE the ring.

      Absolutely.

        Andre Ward was most of those things and more..but he didn't make big money.
        Yet James Corden, a british, fat, talentless fake celebrity arse kisser is even a relatively big name in the US. America is a plastic nation, fake, dumb people.
        the black boxing fans are mostly xenophobic little people with poor mental development..that's why they behave like animals, all territorial n ****.

          Because he's not as good as you dream him to be. Being GGG's best win might make him an ATG in your deluded mind, but not in the real world.

            WTF are you guys talking about , Jacobs well respected in America people respect his story

            However, Jacobs can't win the BIG ONE! Came up short vs GGG and was schooled by Canelo. Had he won those fights yeah he would be the most popular Boxer in the US or at least one of them

            Jacobs still having a good career and made great money for himself so he is OK even without the "Popularity"

And he's a very good boxer, only lost to elites like GGG and Canelo and the mysterious Pirog (and he had cancer at that time).

                The guy is squeaky clean. Why isn't he doing commercials, or making appearances on TV talk shows?

                What other US boxer could possibly be more appealing to everyone? And let's get real here...he is a non-threatening black man, unlike Wilder who has made some poorly thought out remarks IMO.

                What's up with dat?
                He's not very attractive, has 3 losses and has wifi receptor ears.

                But he's a cool dude.

                  Most popular black American boxers ever were mike Tyson, a very threatening black man, and Muhammad Ali, a socially threatening black man. It may seem simple from afar, but racism exists here. Blacks typically play the villain here, his cook Chris algieri has a better shot of being an American hero.
