Comments Thread For: Daniel Jacobs, Gabe Rosado Reach Agreement To Fight November 27

Why da **** is DAZN approving this garbage by Hearn. Unquestionably, a tremendous mismatch. Do us all a favor John Skipper and tell Hearn to go kick rocks

Show's DAZN stance of Canelo is bull****. DAZN lets GGG and Jacob's fight anyone with a pulse yet DAZN when it comes to Canelo's fights want him to fight unrealistic opponents such as De La Hoya and Khabib.

Outside of personal beef, this fight is nonsense. But that trashtalk was funny af

DAZN apparently pushed for Ryder but in the end, they accepted Rosado despite this being Jacobs' last fight of the deal...crazy!
It really makes it looks like DAZN, when push comes to shove, don't mind mismatches, they only mind "high 8 figure purses" mismatches!

Not a bad fight. The question is how much are they getting paid for this fight

OK Pandemic fight I guess

Glad Rosado was able to secure a payday...maybe his last big one, but he secured an exceptional purse for this one. I'm sure.

Most DAZN fighters haven't fought since when, late February? Early March? I just want these guys to be active and we can figure the rest out later on. Some of these guys haven't seen action all year.

Good question!
With Keith Connolly as his manager, Danny will finesse at least a mil (if not two) out of this fight even in these pandemic times.

What a pathetic choice by Jacobs. Jacob's moves up to 168 and his first fight is a former middleweight who by the way sucks. Rosado was a gatekeeper at 160, but that was years ago. He is so past his prime that he is not even good enough to be a gatekeeper at 160.

This really is a bad choice for Jacobs. He should be testing the waters at 168 with a legit lower ranked top 10 super middleweight. Instead of doing the logical thing he is fighting a guy and beating him will mean nothing and will tell the public nothing about how Jacob's will do at 168. If this is the kind of fights Jacobs wants at 168 he does not deserve a title shot anytime soon.

Rosado’s best days were at 154.

His middleweight record is :

4 wins (1 KO)
7 losses (4 by KO)
1 Draw
1 no contest.

Now he’s about to fight at 168. Lol. I like Gabe. But this is a horrible move for Danny Jacobs in terms of career progression, which you’ve already explained.
I’m just here to tell you it’s even worse than thought.

Jacobs bs Ryder would have been a good fight

[Jab jab boom]

Well, at least Rosado won't quit like Chavez Jr did.
