Comments Thread For: Jacobs Feels Golovkin's Hype is Built on Calculated Matchmaking

[Sugar Adam Ali]

top guys like who??

Name them.

Sturm
Serg
Cotto
Canelo

What Jacobs failed to cite was his own record! Beating Sergio Mora is hardly called taking a risk. I feel Jacobs has a shot, he can punch but if you look at both fighters records you'd have to easily lean towards GGG in this battle

[aboutfkntime]

Wade and Willie Monroe were top 10 middleweights willing to fight him. So we have to put things in perspective. No one is pretending. Jacobs opinion is no different than many that post here on NSB.

neither of those guys are/were genuine top10 middleweights

they may have been rated by someone.....

[Kigali]

Sturm
Serg
Cotto
Canelo

Cotto and Canelo are not MW's
GGG is the one that ducked Canelito.

Sergio didn't duck him....and he wasn't a true MW either.

Sturm.....well he was KTFO by Javier Castilejo...who cares who that f&g ducked.

Wade and Monroe are rated in a dead division.

At least he fought him.

Golovking had the chance to fight Mora on HBO...but chose Adama off TV.


Beating a WW is hardly taking a risk either.

Nah.

His hype was built around "I'll fight anyone from 154 to 168" then claim that he's being ducked.

They made I'm out to be a feared fighter. That's where the hype came from.

Wade and Monroe are rated in a dead division.

Some people make out like GGG is in the best division and he's Superman.

This is funny coming from Jacobs. The nerve of these PBC fighters talking about resume

They're just hard-up for a hero.

We see this every couple of years....a puncher with **** defense comes along and certain demographics get all moist.

You'd think they would have learned by now.
