    That goes to Holyfield. Low IQ and bible thumping trash.

    Okay, buddy. Cope.

    Sturm didn’t want him, Martinez didn’t want him, Cotto would never take the fight even if GGG came in at 150. Stop lying to yourself.

    HBO commentary - GGGs own hypetrain - all said Jacobs won the fight.

    Yeah again youre just making sh!t up since you dkwtf youre talking about.

    GGG got very unlucky w Pirog then Sergio but reality is he was nowhere near the victim some of his fans claim. He made things harder for himself too. Even with all that he still had a great career but definitely left people wondering could it have been an ATG career? We'll never know

    When he was out with his injury? Or when he was in a lawsuit w/ Goosen? And the 50-50 offer? Garbage. No one in their right mind would have taken that. Not with a non-draw like Ward. Ward was trying to ride 3G's coattails of rising popularity IMO.

    It seemed he didn't want a CW for the middleweight title fight. Nothing wrong with that. Once upon a time, fans on this board hated the idea of a title fight at a catchweight. Not sure what changed here. That's hardly prima donna stuff. And no one likes fighting guys w/ beards.

    HIs goal was to unify at 160, not 168. Should be common knowldge by now. Fights w/ Froch or JCCjr would have been just high pay fights, to which he'd still fight at 160. The kinda guy? What, one who'll take a big money fight? Weird, not from a PRIZE Fighter. :lol:

    I've never claimed 3G was infallible. Never claimed he's the greatest this or that. What 'stans' say, or the haters, doesn't even really matter in the big picture. Especially on a message board full of idiots.

    “I know your brother died while you were at camp for this fight and then you lost, if he can see you from above tonight what would he say”???

    What's the point of a post fight interview if not to promote yourself for your next outing? In that sense GGG did all that's needed; mumble some platitudinal catchphrases into the microphone ready for the next fight which he would probably win by KO.

    GGG'S post fight interviews ran Circles around the snotty Charlo brothers. He was a breath of fresh air.

    It's all good. Honestly though even though he's an all time fav of mine, I found his intetviews frustrating, maybe it was a 'lost in translation thing.

    Nope, HBO had GGG winning by 1 round. I had GGG winning by 3. Jacobs had himself winning. Which you would expect. HBOs Lederman had it even sfter 11 and gave GGG the 12th as did all the others.
