I've been pushing Saunders for the last two years, nothing new there, I think he's an elite talent, who prefers to coast and box to the level of his opponents instead of push himself. "Chav" aren't you the elitist Gannicus, I'd be considered a "chav" in the UK as would most of the posters on this forum. What are you going to start calling people philistines next?
Even though Jacobs isn“t elite like Hopkins, Martinez or Golovkin, he is an a-level operator at 160, an opponent that makes your resume look better. He has some flaws (chin, IQ) but he also posses some skills (fast hands, KO power, size). I would place him in the same middleweight group as Holmes, Joppy, Trinidad, Abraham, Murray, Taylor, Pavlik, Lemieux, Sturm, Quillin, Wright etc. To me, he is better than b-level operators at MW like Stevens, Eastman, Allen, Echols, Ouma, Macklin, Geale, De la Hoya, Sylvester, Asikainen, Monroe Jr., Rosado, Barker, Chavez jr., Miranda, Soliman, etc.
