    If Jacobs is huge , then wtf was Andy Lee?

    Lee made Chavez Jr look small and Jr was a gigantic MW..

    Jacobs is a regular sized MW . Same size as guys like Qillin , Taylor , Felix Sturm etc.

    Most GGG fanbots dont know sh** about MW history which is why they think Jacobs is an above average sized MW.

    Go take a look at Mikey Nunn

    They're the same thing. Show me evidence to the contrary. Pro-tip, you can't.

    Come back to me when you have an argument why Jacobs is a "huge" MW , cos right now you don't have any.

    I'd actually class Nunn off the top of my head as one of the biggest if not biggest at the weight ever, but he's not much bigger than Jacobs. That's what you said

    Pavlik was a strong and big middleweight. And he liked to brawl and hit guys when they were open. I give him a good chance to win.

    "(Golovkin and Alvarez) haven't seen the likes of my era, my guys. Most of the guys averaged 6 feet tall and walked around at 200, 190, 180 pounds. Just different. I'm taking nothing away but the last couple years you had numerous welterweights and junior middleweights holding the middleweight title. Triple G is a good sized middleweight and it's not really his fault but there is just a lack in the middleweight division,"

    Kelly Pavliks words.

    Nunn was big , but the biggest ever? nah. Pavlik was bigger than Nunn, Keith Holmes too.
    Holmes was as big as Richie Woodhall who would be a decent sized SMW. Physically stronger than him too.

    Guys like Barkley , Collins , Benn , Hopkins , Pavlik , McClelan are in the bracket of big MWs and Jacobs is not as big as them , so how on earth can Jacobs be a huge MW?

    It would have been a great fight.

    I'd have loved to have seen it.

    I'm sure GG would have been caught flush.

    Kelly is 6'2 with a 75" reach, and we've seen GG hit flush many times in the past.

    It would have been a classic.

    Danny is thickset with a renowned fight night weight. He's big and strong. He can be classed as a big MW. But in terms of height and reach, Pavlik is on the list with the likes of Hearns, Hopkins and Nunn etc.

    I think Gerald is the one.

    He ticks all of the boxes.

    He was tall, he had a 77" reach, and he was thickset with huge strength and power. I think he was physically bigger and more powerful than Iran Barkley.

    Reading comprehension isn’t your strong point? I said if GGG is weary of his opponents power he won’t get caught flush, he becomes a cautious boxer against people he knows can hurt him.
