    I like Sergiy but I think Jacobs takes this one in a close fight that goes the distance. I think Jacobs is very underrated in todays middleweight division.

    Agree with this. Jacobs is fleet of foot and quick of hand. He might well be able to outbox SD who doesn't seem as fluid as he might need to be to really corner DJ. That said, if Jacobs gets drawn in to a slugfest or slows down, Sergiy has the firepower to mess him up badly. All things considered DJ, by UD.

    Jacobs gets dropped and stopped. He's a good fighter, but he's still packing glass. Dancing away from an ageing GGG isn't something he'll be able to replicate here.

    Both fighters have the same trainer, no ? So that's not gonna happen.

    It would be a dumb move. Wait to be made mandatory for a fight he would lose (GGG) or take a winnable fight now for a vacant title ?

    They share a flat in Park Slope and get coffee at Starbucks together.

    What vacant belt bro ?
    Did the IBF call for GGG vs SD and I missed it ?

    I read somewhere that Jacobs vs Sulecki is for some WBA ranking but maybe thats not the case, ish changes so quick in boxing
