    I was also 1 of the few to pick Danny Swift Garcia over Lucaz and got KILLED on here for it

    CST80 and 90 percent of esb thought he would get KOd lol

    Picking one against the stream that's actually right, or at least partly (predicting a KO) doesn't make you a good predictor, if almost all other predicitions fell flat.
    If I take 20 fights and predict the underdog to win in all of them, and maybe 2 are right, does that cause people to value my predicitions on other fights you think?!

    I only picked Rubio and Stevens to beat GGG. I then realized ggg is pretty good I will admit

    Not many beat ggg but i think Canelo does. He is more skilled then ggg but ggg has more power

    This fight is a total mismatch. A waste of time.

    Jacobs has a chin made of pure candy glass yet fights like a guy who has an iron chin. He doesn't possess the skills or technical ability to save himself from a very early stoppage loss.
    Even if he had a good chin his skills are far too raw to have any success against Golovkin.

    You're saying this because you know ggg is a GREAT, why don't you just accept that fact. Jacob's is a very talented fighter with power to boost. You're playing his chin like flute, it's not remotely close to as bad you try claiming.

    Mora caught him perfectly and if Jacob's did not recover immediately I'd see your argument, but it was what is called a flash kd which means nothing.

    Pirog hit him so many times and that shot that had him down, he revovered too. If he got an 8 count, he'd of made it, and that's from the perfect shot.

    Some of you can't grasp, there's nothing that can be done from the perfect shot. That's after being hit repeatedly clean by pirog.

    Watch that fight against, if his chin was close to what you claimed he'd of gone down hard in the 2nd round

    1. You're going to make yourself look even more stupid and less credible than you already are.

    2. Now Golovkin-die hards are going to go on bragging when Golovkin selects an opponent in 2018 saying "Everybody thought Golovkin would get KO'd by Jacobs" when it was really just one person saying that garbage so congratulations for starting that bull ****.

    I think Csnelo has the chance to rock GGG with his massive inside upper cuts but in the end GGG will grind him into rubbish but GGG will likely stop the young lion inside 10

    Based on what?

    GGG's defense is solid when it needs to be. When he faces guys that can punch like Lemieux or Stevens he neutralizes them without taking many shots. He covered the distance on both and wouldn't give them space to get their shots off.

    Brook, Monroe, and Wade were no threat so he gave them some freebies. He would never do that with a puncher. This is similar to Ali letting Bob Foster punch him, since Foster couldn't hurt him.

    Canelo may be running from ggg, but when they do fight, do not expect it to be an easy job. Alvarez is overhyped, too cocky, but he is also dangerous and skilled. I still think GGG will knock him out in the later rounds but it will be a tough fight.

    I also feel Canelo will bring some pain and discomfort to GGG

    Hes a young 35. I think he has atleast 2 near prime level years left in him.

    Unless he moves up, Canelo is the only real challenge for him. I favour GGG in that fight, but all this nonsense about him getting hit when he wants to is ridiculous. GGG has no head movement - that's why he gets hit. Brook with his angles and skills proved that. GGG is running out of time, and fights against Jacobs or potentially BJS aren't going to seal his legacy. He needs Canelo or a unified DeGale, otherwise who is his best victory? Lemieux? Geale? Macklin? Lol.

    Canelo is flat footed and has no power. How on earth is he going to stop GGG? He is also a midget.

    Cruz ain't prime but he's a bad man. I like his style.

    Ali was playing like he wasn't hurt but he was hurt for real. Foster could crack.
