Where's Herr Schmeling at?
He made a thread the other day about how the WBC title wouldn't be on the line for this fight, that there was no 30 day weigh in because Jacobs refused to do VADA testing.
Let's see if he apologizes and retracts his lies. But I won't hold my breath.

I knew damn well it was going 12 rounds.

(Walker was the reigning welterweight champ; Greb, who won a 15-round decision, was the defending middleweight champ)

1940s: Sugar Ray Robinson vs. Jake LaMotta I, II, III, IV and V
(Robinson, who went 4-1 vs. his crosstown rival in four hotly contested 10-rounders and one 12-rounder, was a top welterweight prospect and contender; LaMotta was a top middleweight prospect and contender)

1960s: Emile Griffith vs. Dick Tiger

Luis Rodriguez vs. Nino Benvenuti

(Napoles, the reigning welterweight champ, was stopped in Round 7 but Monzon, the defending middleweight champ)

(Duran, a former WBC welterweight champ and reigning WBC 154-pound titleholder, dropped a 15-round decision to Hagler, the defending undisputed middleweight champ and won a 12-round decision over Barkley, the defending WBC middleweight titleholder. Duran-Barkley was THE RING’s Fight of the Year for 1989. Duran was also the former lightweight champ, which is why Hands of Stone is a true all-time great)
Sugar Ray Leonard vs. Hagler
(Leonard, a former welterweight champ and WBA 154-pound titleholder, won a 12-round decision over Hagler, the defending WBC titleholder. It was THE RING’s Fight of the Year for 1987)

[Former welterweight titleholders Trinidad and Oscar De La Hoya also challenged Hopkins, but they did so as fellow middleweight beltholders, so I’m going to leave those matches off this list.]

Kell Brook vs. Gennady Golovkin

GGG is a prima donna. Some people choose not to apply the same standards to him as every other boxer. It cracks me up. Pac**** all over again

Kind of like when GGG drug an average WW (Kell Brook) up 13 pounds and conceded...oh wait, nevermind. GGG made no concessions he just drug a much smaller fighter up 13 pounds.
What a stud this GGG is.

Brook was never the MAN at 147. He was a Top 5 contender and lil G drags up a "decent" WW 13 pounds instead of fighting JMW Lara or other JMW who would gladly take the fight.
It's a different story in historical fights when guys jump weight classes, but this was just a regular fight. Brook was never a historical WW. Just an average contender.
Absolute ***** MOVE by lil g and somehow dogsh.it people like yourself support it.
If Jacobs wins the aftermath will be hilarious
