Excellent Danny Jacobs interview

come on man stop with the BS. HE WAS FORCED TO VACATE ?!?!....did Oscar put a gun to his head or what ?!? This was not about money...for GGG, but for Oscar and the future of GB, yes it was. They couldn't afford to let Canelo lose against a guy that already has the appeal of the Mexicans. IMO Gennady should move up in weight in 2017 because Canelo/ GB will continue quacking

 

It seems no one can still answer how other fighters turning down GGG over money is a duck but GGG turning fighters down over money isn't.

 

and I was a huge Canelo fan until the blatant duck. I loved what he said in the ring after the Khan fight. Boxing needed this fight so badly to "repair" what was broken on the night of May 2nd 2015...but sadly I don't think it's gonna happen

 

who did GGG turn down over money issues. pls educate me ...with a link added to your argument...I know GGG didn't want to go up to fight Andre Ward but I don't think it was about money

 

Ward, Lara, cited resume of all things for Ramirez off the top of my head... stop acting bro trip is a cool fighter but I'm just saying y'all need to stop being hypocrites.

Jacobs as mandatory bypasses for now = ducking
Golovkin as mandatory bypasses shot for 2yrs=not a duck
Golovkin team says someone isn't a draw=not a duck
fighter says GGG isn't a draw=ducking
JMWs not moving up to MW=ducking
GGG not moving up after saying 54-68=not a duck
GGG fights a garbage champ=not a duck
fighter fights a better but still garbage champ=ducking
the sh!t doesn't stop now I'm not saying this to hate on GGG but go through this thread and look at the response to Jacobs saying he'll wait for more money.
then look at any thread when GGG was side stepping Cotto/Canelo citing the exact same reason.
And then guys like you will act like it's not truth and ask for information that is already known only to have an excuse about why it's different.

 

Loved Jacobs long before GGG. So idc if he's throwing shade.

 

So, you're saying that Cotto offering GGG 800000 $ to not fight him and Jacobs asking for a money that none of GGG's challengers collected before are the exact same mandatory situation?

 

link to any of GGG's ducks over money issues ( except Ward wich wasnt over money, GGG could've agreed to a fight after the bout with Lemieux) ....the rest of ducks are false...come on man GGG aint ducking Jacobs or Canelo over money issues...he'd jump at those opportunities ....I hope Lara stays adamant about a GGG fight and this bout happens im the winter after Eubank jr...I, as you, want to see the best fights...and Lara would be an interesting one while it would last, IMO Lara is a bit too small and GGG would walk him over

 

the typical GGG challenger gets like 500k, this is the same as GGG-Canelo GGG makes 1mil a fight if GBP offered him 1mil for fight Alvarez that would be considered a duck and lowballing. As far as the Cotto thing I thought when the Rubio fight happened we'd actually see GGG push for the fight instead for 2 years we got side stepping.

With Cotto I personally feel if the biggest money he could make was vs GGG he'd take the fight and he himself has said it multiple times, the whole situation though goes to contradicting points one day it's all about the titles I'm sure GGG would get more fighting Cotto/Canelo than agreeing to side step, the next its about money and business decisions that others get

on for.

Me personally again can't speak for everybody but as someone who liked GGG when he first arrived this dude has a different story everyday, and anybody else would and does get bashed for it. I don't even gave a

about how much guys make and all this but Cotto would probably make like 5-10 mil fighting GGG and ended up getting 15-20 for Alvarez $800k for a guy nobody knows to make 20+mil is a no brainer.

 

Yeah, Cotto did the right thing to offer GGG money to step aside, but I don't think you understand how "stepping aside" works. If you are offered something to step aside, It means the guy who offered you something to step aside doesn't want to fight you next, which means either you agree to step aside or enforce your mandatory status and force the champ to drop the title, which means you never get to fight him.

GGG's only chance to land the fight with Cotto/Canelo was to agree to step aside and wait, I don't know what on earth makes you think he'd land the Cotto fight had he not agreed to step aside, he wouldn't have. Cotto would've just dumped the belt(just like Canelo did after he fought Khan) and still taken the fight with Canelo which is also a no brainer for his point of view.

And the GGG/Jacobs situation couldn't be any further apart than that. In one case, the mandatory is demanding the fight and the champ is offering him money to NOT make the fight, in the other case the champ is demanding the fight and the mandatory is making demands to take the fight.

Also, lile I said before, the only way for K2 to meet Jacobs' demands is to make the fight on ppv, I don't know if HBO would be willing to do that, I suspect they might.

 

Jacobs seems like a good guy.

GGG's people apparently need to start paying for GGG to aquire some more notches on his belt. Does K2 just suck or what? What kind of money are they offering these fighters?

 

Jacobs is delusional and quite frankly, more than a little thick. I have a better memory than most of you: Like when he claimed Pirog had no power then got promptly stretched by him.

He apparently learned nothing from that loss or his subsequent battle with cancer. The guy is gum on GGG's shoe yet he is demanding huge money. Typical Murikunt who thinks he is the center of the Universe.

 

What part of the interview is excellent and why does Jacobs think anyone wants to watch him fight Mora ?

 

Acie please read this.

We all get that GGG's mortal sin to some people was not moving up 8lbs to fight the p4p best before the public demanded the fight and the big money was there (oh the horror). But that "duck" and ggg fan boys angering you should not make you irrational. Your failure to see the differences between the ggg-cotto situation and the ggg-Jacobs situation is sad. It's willful ignorance, blind hate or stupidity on your part.

 

I guess you didn't know about the deadlines. For Canelo the timing was all wrong. I mean who honestly thinks he is going to beat GGG? I see it as a 60/40 fight in GGG's favor. Let's be real. Nobody wants any parts of GGG and want to make as much money as they can before taking the L against him because
1. They will get ktfo or take a brutal beating
2. It could be career ending
3. Could leave them with permanent brain damage

Each prospective opponent is watching out for both themselves and their finances. That's the reality of the situation.
