    "It’s like you’re watching social media all day, looking for what the fans say about you. Like I don’t care about that stuff. That stuff doesn’t matter to me.

    . I don’t even like to go on that stuff, because at the end of the day that stuff does not matter. People’s opinion of you and what’s gonna happen, when they can’t predict the future,

    . And I don’t want that happening. I wanna have a good camp, focused. This is a big task and I just wanna mentally prepare myself for this."

    Man, this is NOT a good thing for Jacobs to admit. He is clearly rattled by the KO predictions. This dude is mad shook to be turning notifications off on his pink iphone 5C...

    LOL. His confidence grew after the Brook fight but went back down to zero when he opened Faceb00k.

    Hmmm, he implies he does it in general but one can assume it's because of the Golovkin talk.

    Floyd did the same for the Manny fight. It's a good sign. Social media can be a huge distraction. It only works for guys who are flavor of the months like Connor McGregor whose already been exposed and tapped out.

    True, but most sportspeople don't get so frustrated about social media that they go talking about their frustrations.

    Golovkin turns his house lights off when Jacobs walks by.

    So he would be viewed as strong-willed and confident if he said he was studying social media and taking notes on peoples' predictions? Huh?

    Come on man, at that point your just finding a reason to give the man a hard time. I respect your opinion of course, but I feel it's nit picking at that point.

    This might be a good idea for Jacobs. He knows he is up against a huge challenge and doesn't want to psyche himself out. However, some of the past greats, like Ali, were energized and enlivened by the naysayers. To each their own, I guess. Whatever works for him.

    Surely he knew he was gonna be classed as the underdog right?
    It doesn't mean that much as Jacobs hasn't got the same fan base,what did he expect a 50/50 split of folk on social media?
