There was a article on boxing scene where the trainer of Jacobs said that he would like Danny to throw over a 100 punches in a round, could it work against someone like a Golovkin?
One round war to win title its being done before. Ray Mancini vs Arturo Frias ( round of the year ) Jamie Garza vs Juan Meza ( ko of the year ) Jimmy Carruthurs vs Vic Towell ( Jimmy estimated to throw 126 punches to Towell one )
Hmm. Improbable. Danny has thrown an average of about 58 punches a round (last 10) against guys who in the main didn't have much return fire to offer. He's suddenly gonna up that by 80% against a murderous puncher? Well Rozier did say Danny was '195% prepared' - maybe that's what he meant? https://www.throwdownfantasy.com/fighter/2849 In fact Golovkin is the greater volume puncher here throwing an average of just over 61/ round over the last 10 and landing 37.8% compared to Dannys 33.1%. If he throws it all in early it's possible Jacobs'll outhustle GGG for a round or two, but there's nothing to suggest he can outwork GGG in the long haul. https://www.throwdownfantasy.com/fighter/3939 EDIT: The stats are slightly different than I post above. Compubox connect %s and thrown per fights are based over 18 fights for Golovkin and 13 for Jacobs whereas I calculated punches per a round based on the total rounds fought over the last 10, but the figures will approximate to the same given their similar overall records of early stoppages.
I wondered if Danny might employ a different strategy against 3G. Seeing that 3G tends to start off cautiously, this might allow Danny to get a few early rounds. But that volume, especially when you aren't accustomed to it, can tire you out quickly. That could spell disaster for Danny mid rounds.
