    Lets see how enthusiastic Jacobs is about fighting GGG if the mandatory gets ordered. I suspect GGG will be blamed for 'ducking' that fight also when Jacobs doesn't take it.

    Do you remember how long it took Hagler to even get the Middleweight championship because nobody wanted to fight him? Does that sound familiar? It took 49 fights to get the title shot then was robbed with a Draw and then had to wait 3 more fights to get another shot. Was he also a bum who wasn't trying to be great? He was wrecking people and guys were not lining up to fight him.

    Well in another post you said Hagler dared to be great be beating up 3 fighters who were smaller in Hearns, Leonard and Duran.

    Yet at the same time complain because Golovkin is apparently picking on smaller fighters in Canelo and Floyd? Despite Canelo being a champion at 160 and saying he would drop down to a weight in which Floyd was an alleged champion. I cannot see the big deal.

    And whilst Floyd has been a champion in 5 different weight classes did he really fight the best opposition at the time? And he doesn't have a victory over an ATG in their respective prime. Smoke and mirrors my deluded *****.

    People want PBF to move up yet again because they think GGG can beat PBF. These same people who are calling for PBF to fight GGG were noticeably silent or made excuses when Ward called for GGG to fight him at 168. Why is that? I'll tell you why because they think Ward will give him that work that's why so they don't want the fight. They would much rather to see GGG stay in a weak division and call out 39 year old former 130 pound fighters like he's doing something. These guys have no shame.

    Jacobs is a nice story buy to be honest he's not very good. Hell even by your own admission has a glass jaw. So who wants to see that? BJS is a much better fight than Jacobs is but that still isn't saying very much.

    No because Duran didn't start off as a 135 fighter either,he started off at super bantamweight if I'm not mistaken yet still fought for the 160 belt at 160.

    Again certain fighters say they're the best ever whilst other fighters go out and prove they are great win or lose.

    Golovkin said he'd go down to 154 for Floyd.

    Ward said he'd fight Floyd at 160.

    The difference is 2 of them are arguably top 10 ATG fighters and the other is arguably the biggest puncher in boxing history and an ATG to boot. GGG doesn't have that level of comp coming up to fight him if he did I wouldn't have anything to say about it.

    Lastly, once again you have the audacity to question PBF's level of comp when the best name on GGG's resume is Martin Murruy:lol::rofl a guy who was never seen as the best fighter at any weight he's fought at, you want to talk about smoke and mirrors. I mean you just don't get it, PBF's resume and accomplishments are 10000000 light years beyond that of GGG's and that can't be refuted. Log off.

    Again certain fighters can have Martin Murray as their best win and can been seen as the second coming without ever beating or even fighting a fighter of note. Certain fighters can stay in weak divisions not daring to be great, while others can move up and fight in 5 weights have a much superior resume and still be questioned as not have proved anything nor have not chased greatness.:nutGGG and his fans hide in the bathroom whenever you mention Ward's name.:yep

    martin murrayand david lem would knock everyone out in floyds resume and himself

    floyd wont do what the past greats did like duran and lenny

    duran was smaller than floyd yet fought barkley at 160 when he was 38 years old

    Why don't you ask GGG to do something? Why don't you ask him to move up? Why? Why is everything always on a 39 year old guy who has already proven himself? Yet you give the other guy a pass. I don't understand this logic it's hypocrisy at its finest. GGG wants to be where PBF is not the other way around.:deal

    No one thinks GGG beats floyd everyone KNOWS he knocks him out in round 1 floyd himself knows this thats why he tells him to fight ward

    floyd would get knocked out the ring with a jab
