Jacobs isn't any bigger than Golovkin is. GGG has no problems with his size.

    Gongratulations, you just proved Kovalev to be bigger than Jacobs. What´s your point though?

    Jacobs is clearly physically bigger than Golovkin. Height and reach is just one dimension of size, no way near the whole picture.
    Golovkin is a strong, full fledged MW. Jacobs is a big MW.

    That Jacobs isn't a "Huge" MW like he's perceived to be draining down to fight smaller men. He's a good sized MW.

    I don't recall the Chavez/Lee rehydration weights, but it was obvious to me Chavez Jr was much heavier. Lee's usual ring weight is 167 and Chavez Jr is about 180+, and that's what it looked like to me if not greater. This has nothing to do with Golovkin/Jacobs nor is it a fight I ever commented on, so I'm not sure what you are in disagreement about.

    I made no comment on walking weight. 30 day weigh in is not walking weight, Duckman.

    Lemieux was shorter and this was exaggerated by fighting out of a crouch. Lemieux was 8 pounds heavier 30 days from the fight and was a pound heavier on the day of the fight and likely hydrated even more, so I wouldn't describe him as tiny.

    Golovkin 168.6, Lemieux 169.2

    Are you just typing to type? This has nothing to do with anything.

    I doubt he will. Even if he did, he is still two inches taller and could be described as bigger. End of story. Jacobs is bigger. Only at boxingnews24....you see stuff this crazy.

    So you're telling me Jacobs won't make weight? Being taller means nothing. Is Jacobs bigger than Mike Tyson too? :facepalm:

    I think Jacobs is definitely bigger than GGG, problem is that Glass Jaw of his.

    Oh god I read that wrong..you actually said the DAY BEFORE the fight? Are you really that stupid and inconsistent? I thought you meant the day of the fight.

    You just used Chavez Jr vs Lee as an arguing point! Two men who weighed the same the day before the fight, but on the day of the fight there was likely a 15 pound difference. Day before weight means nothing, it's what they hydrate to on fight night that counts, and you yourself are aware of this by bringing up the Chavez Jr fight. I'm at a loss....

    You argue hydration counts when arguing size but than revert to official weigh ins in the same post to argue size. That makes no sense, Duckman. None at all.

    Mike Tyson? I don't believe Golovkin will have 60 pounds on Jacobs so I don't see the point in that analogy. I would say Golovkin will be his usual 168-170 and Jacobs his usual 170-175 in the ring. Given Jacobs will be taller and heavier, he's bigger, no way around that unless you got rocks for brains.

    Planet Hater: The taller and heavier man is not bigger...

    I'm ****ing embarrassed for you guys. At what point did your brains turn to mush? Were you always this ignorant of physics? Do you look at a building in the distance and think you are taller than it? Do you occasionally look at the sky and try to grab the moon cause it looks so close? This is like trying to teach insects mathematics.

    Golovkin came in around 170-175 as well before he picked up the IBF belt. He will be no more than 170 come fight night and neither will Jacobs.
    Don't brush your stupid onto to me. Im the antidote to clowns like you..

    Unless they have fight night weights, you're blowing smoke here.

    No , I used Andy Lee as an arguing point dum dum.

    According to you size is height and arm length. "Jacobs is taller and has longer reach, therefor he is bigger than GGG"

    Andy Lee was taller with longer arms than Chavez yet he went onto fight at 154 while Jr moved up to 168.

    Jacobs is taller than GGG but GGG is broader and thicker. You looked up boxrec , saw Jacobs was taller and made simple minded conclusion that he is bigger.

    You did not understand the correlation to Hatton , Froch and Calzaghe. It went straight over your stupid head .Hence this post.
