Will Daniel Jacobs Bounce Back?

Funny how when I made a thread years ago about Dirrell and Ward at 168 were future kings of the division, Some people came on and claimed Jacobs was the better prospect at 160. I never saw anything special in Jacobs. Just a good textbook, ordinary fighter with above average speed.

 

Yes, I think he'll bounce back.

 

Not with that Glass Jaw he won't. I guess he could be like Khan and only fight guys that have KO rates below 25%?

 

Jacobs looked clueless in the 1st round. Pirog looked VERY impressive.

 

he does have talent but I think he may be overrated. Real blue chippers rarely get starched like that. Khan got blitzed but he is a way better fighter than Presscott. But Pirog, despite punch stats, controlled everything in that fight and was the much stronger man.

It wasn't a lucky punch, it was inevitable. Jacobs had no answers or clues on how to deal with Pirog. I waned on Jacobs after his struggle with Michael Walker. And I remember against Ishe, I felt during that bout that if Ishe had more pop, Jacobs would have been KO'd. Jacobs future prospects don't look great. More sizzle than substance, I'm afraid.

:smoke:smoke

 

He has talent but I dont think he was destined to be a P4P great regardless of this loss. I see him being a 37-6-1 guy when its all said and done maybe winning 1 or 2 title fights in a few years but never winning all the belts at 160 or 168 lbs.

 

He'll go the Abagnale Khan route - feasting on light hitters, shot guys and guys in the division below. In a few years there will be people back here considering him to be a p4p beast for beating on these kind of people.

 

ofcourse he can but im staying away from esb whenevr he fights because i dont think i can take any nmore "glass jaw " bull****

 

atschatschGlass Jaws exist in boxing. This has been proven time and time again. Hell, there's even a movie on the subject.

 

:rofl No, it's a guy called Roy Jones, who has the most disgraceful Chin in the business.

 

Yeah because there is no such thing as a Glass Jaw right?

Jacobs has a paper mache Chin he was an over hyped fighter who got his fragile Glass Mandible shattered all over the place.

 

:rofl:deal

 

i hope so.....but im sure it wont be easy after a KO like this

 

Just give it a few years. Jacobs will have beaten a few C level guys, feather-fisted puffs, and semi-retired smaller guys, and people will be back on here claiming he's the GOAT.

It's already happened with Abagnale Khan. GBP will follow the Abagnale Khan blueprint.
