    Who said he's in a good place? It's clear 3G is being dicked around at 160. His legacy is NOT set in stone. He has years still to fight, don't you get that? And in regards to history, it will show how badly he was ducked by his 160 counterparts.

    Like I asked, if Jacobs doesn't want this fight, what does he have for HIS LEGACY? Who does he fight at 160 for big money?

    GG can fight BJS and move up. GG's fans are happy so I'm good.

    GG doesn't have years to fight. Not at his age. Some of you may think that we hate or don't like GG but we want to see him in a real fight. A real fight. We are tired of the "duck" talk. Just tired of it.

    And yet, for some reason, when 3G is ducked, most of you take the side of the other guy. Hell, even c0ckmaster tries to pretend he's a 3G fan. If one is a fan, you don't go out of your way to insult a guy when often times, the circumstances abound are not even of his fault. 3G cannot force anyone in the ring who doesn't want to face him. I'm tired of the duck talk too. But who's fault is that? Shouldn't Jacobs get a healthy portion of the blame here?

    What about his regular title defenses if you take them off he only has 7 defenses?

    He will be 40 when he's challenging bhops record, he will never make it. Might as well move up now?

    Flip flopping Robney, that is not on.
    GGG hasn't even proven he wants to make fights, it's hard to duck someone that won't fight you.

    Canelo offered 10mill and he turned it down
    Jacobs offered 60-40 and he turned it down

    If Danny isn't a world champion with his belt then GGG only has 7 title defenses

    Kovalev and Ward signed a year out?
    Why can't GGG vs Canelo?

    Stop listening to the fanatics. We don't have to be a GG fan and we don't have to like him. But you must respect him. And I do respect him. He can fight. I sided with him on the Canelo thing, but I have criticisms of GG as well. This one fight can make me a fan. I want to see him in a fight with a very dangerous guy. We have. I seen that yet. I might be wrong but Jacobs does not deserve Wade type money.

    And GG never deserves 100% of the blame in any situation that he's been in.

    No they didn't. If you watch Ward's post fight interview after he beat Barrera, you'll hear him say "It's not a question of if, It's a question of when". And that was 7 months ago.

    I don't consider his amount of defences to be anywhere near that of B-Hop and I don't think they ever will be. I don't think that's a legitimate aim. Unifying? That's far more reasonable.

    I also think that there's little point moving up now Ward, Froch, Kessler, Bute and co have retired or moved up. I don't think Degale or Jack bring much in the way of interest or money.

    The Canelo, Jacobs, Saunders and Eubank fights are all good fights IMO. I'd also happily see some of the bigger guys at 154 currently starving themselves out of being middleweights step up and challenge as some of them would be real threats.

    And Sugar, GG doesn't have too move up. Those 3 names right there plus the big guys at jmw are good enough names to where GG can stay at 160 because...who is really at 168 that can enhance his legacy and make him money.
