Are certain fans going to hype up Jacobs now?

    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?:lol:

    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.
