    Abel -- Danny was more resilient than I thought
    GGG -- he's the best opponent I've faced
    Abel -- Danny will be champ (again) very soon
    GGG -- I was not angry that Danny did not do day-of weigh in
    GGG -- I was not really frustrated when he switched to southpaw
    Abel -- Danny's size/weight helps make him a good opponent (tough) for us

    DJ Promoter -- I thought Danny won the fight and outworked GGG
    DJ Promoter -- I could not be more proud of Danny
    DJ Trainer --- We came in with little chance given us to win by the media
    DJ Trainer --- Danny showed tonight he's not just elite but a world champ MW
    DJ Trainer --- No one is more proud of Danny than I am
    DJ Trainer --- Tonight Danny made me great
    Jacobs ------- I'm really proud of myself. I gave it all that I had.
    Jacobs ------- I showed some true grit tonight
    Jacobs ------- I do really think I won the fight
    Jacobs ------- I think it could have at least been a draw
    Jacobs ------- I won't complain about the decision
    Jacobs ------- Fans were the winners. It was not a dull fight.
    Jacobs ------- I'm grateful for this opportunity
    Jacobs ------- My future is brighter now after this performance
    Jacobs ------- I definitely think I shocked a lot of people tonight.
    Jacobs ------- I proved who I am and proved what I can do.
    Jacobs ------- This was a win-win situation for me (career elevated even though he lost)
    Jacobs ------- GGG's power wasn't what everyone made it out to be. It wasn't the bogeyman power like eveyone said.
    Jacobs ------- I thought before the fight that if he caught me that would be it. But that wasn't the case.
    Jacobs ------- GGG is a fair-sized MW. I knew I would be the bigger man.
    Jacobs ------- He was a tough fighter, but he showed respect (for my power).
    Jacobs ------- My boxing ability and power commanded his respect. He didn't just walk through me like he did others.
    Jacobs ------- He showed some vulnerability when I switched to southpaw
    Jacobs ------- My confidence grew after I felt his power. Knew I could handle it and be ok.
    Jacobs ------- I landed my jab at will, at times, especially in southpaw stance
    Jacobs ------- Would love a rematch
    Jacobs ------- In the past, GGG has shown vulnerability to southpaws. Saw this in watching his old fights.
    Jacobs ------- The gameplan was not to stay southpaw, but to switch to it to confuse GGG
    Jacobs ------- He had tougher time landing when I went southpaw, especially his right hands
    Jacobs ------- I thought I backed him up/hurt him twice in the fight. One was a body shot.
    Jacobs ------- I heard him grunt when I hit him with that hard body shot
    Jacobs ------- GGG is a man. He's human (not a robot, can be hurt)
    Jacobs ------- Not sure if extra weight helped me take punches, I just know I'm a big MW and he's not the biggest MW
    Jacobs ------- The weight drain and re-hydration went great. Chris Algieri helped me with that.
    Jacobs ------- I think I was like 175 (believe he said to question about re-hydration weight)
    Jacobs ------- I was in the zone late in the fight, to try to keep him from gaining momentum
    Jacobs ------- I wanted to let him know (with bravado acts) that this was not going to be one of his easy outings
