Wow, Jacobs is READY. 50:50 fight, believe, this fight is going to be huuuge

maybe the best fight at 160....but that,s not saying much..
GGG is way too strong

 

It will be a good fight for sure. Big drama show !!
The undercard has Chocolatito and Usyk until now.
If u can u should go watch this.

 

50/50?? Lol No.

Jacobs will be out of there in 5 rounds

 

No one can predict the outcome of this fight simply because it is 160, a dead division where both fighters have fought the best in the division but the division's "best" are just mediocre.
Technically, Jacob has fought and beaten the best in the division, Deer-In-The-Headlights Quillan, but that's exactly what I meant by mediocre. Who did Quillian beat but b level fighters.
Golovkin has beaten more of the b levelos than Quillian or Jacob, so this is the only reason to give him the edge because he has more experience beating b level opponents.
Should be a good battle of the B's.

 

Jacobs, but I've been picking him since before the fight was even finalized. The press-conference/stare-down didn't change that for me

 

So far Usyk is fighting the dreaded TBD and Chocolatito is fighting Wisaksil Wangek.

 

I don't think Quillin was ever the best at 160. Draw with Andy Lee and he was getting outboxed by N'Dam in the rounds that he didn't get several knockdowns, which is funny in itself. Rosado was arguably en route to beating him prior to the cut he sustained. That being said I don't dislike Quillin and would like to see him back in the ring vs good competition and I really want to see him rematch Jacobs at some point.

 

I meant that before the Jacob fight Quillian and Golovkin were both unbeaten while Jacob had one loss.
Those three were the best in the division and none ever fought an A level opponent, simply because the MW division has no A level fighters.
Thus, the battle of the B's.

The MW division is so devoid of talent that people are actually praying that Canelo, Lara, Andrade and Charlo will move up from 154 to bring some talent to the division. I know I am.

 

Eh, I strongly disagree. I think we have some solid middleweights out there and I expect to see some good matches in 2017 and 2018. I don't care if Lara moves up, but I'd like to see Jermall and Canelo move up since I think we'd see them at their best at 160. I'm not sure if Andrade drains himself a lot to make 154.

 

Jacobs reminds me of Terry Norris; a great, offensive machine, but very chinny. Both great amateur pedigree, but Ggg is a step above. Other than Ggg, Jacobs can upset anyone else if he's on his A game. He's a hot and cold fighter Imo, kinda inconsistent.

 

Good on yer,like to see folk with convictions

 

I think the division needs to come alive as we have also Eubank jnr who has totally lost his way,Khurtside and Derywhatshisname to add those you mentioned.
Totally agree about this fight as we have nos one and two facing off for **** loads of titles,still don't think it should of been made a PPV but Jacobs pushed for it,you tube has gone mental over this though which is good?

 

"Solid" (Good?) is quite different than Elite.

OK, fair enough, but please enlighten me on who at 160 is A class elite level, but consider between Canelo (154) and Golovkin (160), exactly who is considered A class?
