    Why the **** was Jacobs trying to fight Chavez Jr lol... if that ain't a money grab, idk what is, and is that even a money grab? Does Chavez Jr even have fans anymore?

    Lol you gotta laugh at the double standards here with Chavez.Im not saying this in hindsight as I said it at the time but Chavez was a walking Pharmaceutical study in weight loss in his run up to fighting Canelo.
    That fight simply could not have happened under any strict testing which is why they didn’t have any lol.

    Given he’s in Mexico I don’t understand why he can’t just blame the tainted meat or has that ship sailed now lol?

    What’s wrong with a money grab though?

    I knew when they said Gabe Rosado was in training as a backup in case Chavez Jr pull an infamous stunt and that’s the fight we’re gonna get regardless.. What does Jacobs vs Rosado do for Jacobs as a tryout for 168??

    Its probably a showcase fight moreso than a money grab, but his last 4 or 5 opponents have a combined record of something like 140 wins and 1 loss when he fought them, and after fighting Golovkin, Derev, and Canelo... I think its understandable that Jacobs gets a bit of a restart in a showcase fight like this to try and get some momentum.

    Not a bad fight and will provide him decent money which he rightfully deserves. Let's please not forget that Jacobs has been fighting nothing but serious opposition for almost half a decade straight now. 4 of his last 5 opponents are undefeated and still the one with 1 loss(Alvarez) is the toughest of the bunch and arguably one of, if not the, best active fighter today.

    He deserves one or two easy paydays after one sadly underrated yet pure hell of a ride.

    Can you remember Oscar Fishnets claimed the Clenelo/ Chavez jr debacle was to prove which was the #1 Mexican fighter ???? ROFLMAO. Ive seen heavy bags fight back better than Chavez but Ginger couldnt put him away

    What??!

    Do you just make things up to sound cool? Lol

    Both Canelo and Jr. were subject to random testing with VADA. Also, did you not read the tweet? It says Studio City, as in U.S.
