    1. Brook - Spence is a good fight, honestly if I was Hearn I'd tell Brook to go to 154 lb. But it seems that negotiations are serious, so maybe.

    2. Please be intellectually honest here, this is a best fight GGG can get before fighting Canelo in September. Like it or not, with BJS pricing himself of both Canelo and GGG fights, the best MW option was Jacobs. Even the logical Canelo fans here appreciate that GGG-Jacobs is a good match-up.

    3. Canelo - Chavez Jr is a fun matchup, although not particularly significant (obviously). And yes, it will sell well of course, although not as much as the GGG fight in September if both win.

    Didn't you just say you weren't around when this was happening? Since you weren't here let me fill you in on what actually happened. Dumb as a brick GGG detractors such as Uppercut Artist made thread after thread on how GGG will duck Jacobs and never fight him but then as soon as the contract is signed it was nothing but silence with other GGG detractors coming out of the woodwork and calling Jacobs a bum.

    i was here during the prelimnary talks....when jacobs was holding out for some money apparently...and what i saw were ggg fans saying jacobs wasnt anything and he got knocked by mora and he wasnt worth any money cause he doesnt sell and has no fans......now i see everyone all hyped about it now that its signed and sealed. thats what i said....

    Please...

    This is a thinly veiled passive aggressive attack from you. Who are you trying to kid? We all know your M.O.... Questioning whether or not it's a good fight or not, but leaving enough of a grey area so the mods can't ban you. There shouldn't be any questioning of GGG/Jacobs, it's a legitimate fight. Looks especially silly when you go on to praise Canelo/Chavez Jr. in the very next paragraph.

    Spence hasn't fought anyone and has yet to face a puncher, this is a fact.

    Golovkin is closing in on all the middleweight records whether you like it or not.

    The fact you complain about Golovkin getting hyped and excuses made for him despite him never fighting anyone then in the very same posts/topic are doing the exact same in regards to Spence speaks volumes.

    Brook has been pro 8 years longer than Spence, and his best win is a close MD against Porter lol. Safe to say that at this rate Spence may have a greater career.

    How bout dat?

    Golovkin's resume is garbage for an elite fighter, garbage. He may supposedly break records, but with that resume, he will never be a LEGEND like Hagler, Monzon, or Hopkins.

    And I said Spence may yet turn out to be the real deal but as it stands a MD over Porter shits over anything Spence has yet done....how about dat?

    Hopkins reign at 160 was equally as poor in quality as we see now, only difference being GGG isn't having to face fighters of the calibre of Robert Allen 3 times to prove who's the better fighter.

    We Mexicans don't **** around...yet I'm a 155 fighter when Golovkin is mentioned but 165 is ok for Chavez jr LOOOLLL

    You claim Golovkin is a hype job and has fought no one despite him holding 3 titles, is the concensus number 1 in the division, selling out arenas in USA, highest KO % in middleweight history soon to break most defenses.

    Then in the very same thread hype up a true hype job in Spence who has fought........absolutely no one.
