GGG vs Jacobs

[ikorolev]

Lemieux would likely destroy Quillin as well as Jacobs, IMO.

No he wouldn't.

Quillin would never lose to guys like Alcine or Rubio and has done better against common opponents.

Again, Peter is another level from anyone lil g has faced not named Murray...and he is better than Murray too.

Who are the common opponents? I know of Rosado, Guerrero, and N'dam, and I wouldn't say that overall PQ did better against them.

Rosado was on his way of beating scared Quillin, so a ref and a doctor had to save Petra.

[Chepppaaa]

Had Jacobs done the same thing to GGG in the first round, He would be knocked out inside the first minute of the fight by a HUGE counter.

GGG MURDERS Jacobs its not even a contest.

yall underestimate jacobs, that dude got a 88 % ko ratio, more than lemieaux, jacobs can hurt ggg, so can ggg hurt jacobs, both its a close fight, where i would favour ggg, but aside from 99 % of all others middleweight jacobs would have a great chance of actualy troubling ggg in a serious manner.

So What? Rubio had 80%, Lemieux had 86% and was a real champion unlike Jacobs. Did you see them land anything? Just because Jacobs beat Quillin in 1 rnd doesnt mean he has the power to trouble GGG, He went 12 rounds with Truax recently.

Also you forget that GGG has a GRANITE chin unlike Peter Quillin and his defense is miles better than Peter too. MILES better, just look at the Lemieux fight how he used his shoulder to deflect punches, slipped punches well controlled distance, never let lemieux get on the inside.

Golovkin Knocks out Jacobs inside 3 rounds. with ZERO trouble.

you seem to not understand boxing, do you

athletiscm, speed + power is a very dangerous combination. lemieaux only had 1 out of 3, jacobs has 3 out of 3, you can follow?

anybody with big power can hurt anybody when he lands clear, no matter if its good or bad chin.

[Chepppaaa]

Do you remember when Pirog flattened Jacobs?

no shame in losing against piroq. p was a russian killer and when he landed clear on you, you were in trouble, anybody, even ggg.

Pirog wasn't a major puncher.

Look at his other fights and you'll see that aside from Jacobs he didn't flatten anyone meaningful with one punch (and of course he also hurt Jacobs earlier in the fight). Danny has a history of chin problems going back to the amateurs and I think the nature of his loss to Pirog had at least as much to do with a lack of durability and is it did Pirog's power.

again a non expert on board

piroq wasnt no julian jackson, but p was damn sure a strong puncher.

the punch he kod jacobs was a picture perfect shot, well timed, well balanced, perfectly on the chin, ggg wouldve gone down too, no doubt. saying lack of durability is just stupidity. also because after 5 secondes jacobs wanted to come up and continue and the ref was holding him down, saying its over, with jacobs responding "i am good"

[Pureist]

Let's not get carried away now, 80% of those fast short punches Jacobs threw were slaps, look back over the tape, while he was slapping he'd be dropped by a good fighter, he jumped quillan and got lucky, that's all

lets see what happens when he faces him, i am not so sure, that it would be an easy night for ggg, although i favour ggg

I do understand boxing very good. Quote me back when and if the fight happens and u will see you were wrong.

Only a few of his hard shots landed, and those few destroyed Quillin. Imagine if he wasn't a "slapper" or if he fought a "good" fighter OMG he'd probably break the Earth

You really should stay off the gear, you don't make any sense

Based on what Mr Expert? All the evidence of GGG going down I presume?

[SFW]

Calling that lucky, I'm not sure you know what sense means. Certainly don't understand what happened I know 85 seconds is a long time to focus but there are pills for that too. Luck lol. Hey, whatever helps you sleep at night, it's not a lie if you believe it yourself right

Pirog was a solid puncher but hardly a standout one. His stoppages were mainly the product of him using superior skill to wear down over-matched opponents, and despite watching many of his bouts I've never seen him blast another opponent out in the manner he beat Jacobs. Now admittedly it was a solid shot that ended that fight, but Jacobs was also clearly hurt in the second round by an unspectacular looking blow that I doubt would've even fazed GGG, who unlike Jacobs hasn't been hurt and dropped several times throughout his amateur and professional careers.

[Evanderheadpunch]

Jacobs beating Quillin in one round doesnt make him close to a match for GGG. He just landed a well timed right on a glass chin

He got lucky how :?? ........you get lucky on your first date or playing the lotterie's......... Ok I get what your saying ''the lucky punch'' but mate the Jacobs V Quillan fight I didn't see any lucky punch I believe Jacobs is similar in style to Willie Monroe but with a punch that can earn him respect
from his opposition Willie did give GGG a bit of trouble with his fast hand's and especially his fast feet he lacked that kick in his punch's that would
have gained him enough respect with his power so he could use his excellent movement and boxing ability to give some-one like GGG a moving target that is hard to find I believe Jacobs style will stand him in good stead against GGG.......Jacobs has been stopped before and GGG is one of the best KO artist in the business that is what will make this fight a must see I think a boxer and a puncher with about the same talent is style wise
the best match up that can be made I will be barracking for Jacobs to win a 12 round un dec but I wouldn't count out a GGG win inside the distance.

[Pureist]

You clowns live in a fantasy world, Jacobs won't win 1 round before getting stopped, you talk about hyping GGG, what are you doing with Jacobs, get serious

I'm with this guy

[caldo2025]

Pump the breaks people. Let's let Jacobs face Andy Lee or Saunders as that's more his speed. GGG's chin is world class and we all know that Quillin has been hurt in every fight he's been in. Let's face it, Quillin's time is done. He got the most of his career and had a fine career at that. But he's done now and comparing him to GGG is impossible to do as they are not even on the same planet in terms of talent

Agree with some of this.

But make no mistake, caldo.

Quillin is another level over anyone lil g has faced, maybe with the exception of Murray.

Jacobs has the right to claim he is the best middle in the world based on that win alone.

He may not be right but he DOES have a point.

This is just another edition of KC's Flavor of the Month Club, nothing more. Next week, it will be the winner of the Lee/Saunders fight. Then we'll get another post saying how Saunders should now be able to claim MW title over GGG because Andy Lee was better than GGG's opposition.

Unfortunately, we live in a boxing world where boxing fans have to argue their case and point because boxers refuse to get in the ring with GGG. Now we have to look at strength of schedule and have to listen to ridiculous claims like this one just because a boxer wins a fight unexpectedly.

Jacobs < GGG no matter how you slice it. Ridiculous Claim.

[tiny_acres]

I would expect GGG to knock out Jakobs within 5 rounds.
But Jacobs would be one of GGG's best names on his resume.

[caldo2025]

I would expect GGG to knock out Jakobs within 5 rounds.
But Jacobs would be one of GGG's best names on his resume.

I'm just tired of the resume talk about GGG. In one year, GGG knocked out Rubio, Murray, Monroe Jr AND won another version of Middleweight title by knocking the tar out of David Lemieux. This all happened from October 2014 to October 2015. In one year, this is what the kid did and people have the nerve to knock him for "his resume". Name another boxer taking on that kind of challenge in a 12 month span? It's hilarious to me how pathetic these arguments against GGG's dominance are.

Then I have to sit here and witness the Roman Gonzalez love fest when one of his fights in 2015 was against a guy with a 38-29-3 record. Give me a break. I haven't heard anyone knock RG for his "resume". Imagine if GGG booked a fight with a guy that barely had a .500 record.

There is not a boxer on the planet that had a tougher schedule than GGG the last couple of years but KC can keep on knocking "little G" with his pathetic arguments. Floyd never took on 4 fights like that in a 12 month stretch. Laughable. All of it is Laughable.

[sucracristo]

i've seen guys get ko'd fast and then win the rematch later, and if Q landed a good
shot on jacobs (he is more than capable of doing so) then it's lights out for jacobs.
i said before that fight someone was going to get sparked and i wasn't sure who,
but i picked the wrong guy in the end. don't just go by jacob's 1st round tko over Q to
assess their relative talent, because crazy me thinks those two are still pretty well
matched unless Q is broken after that loss. when you lose in the first round nobody
is going to take you seriously if you ask for a rematch, but after the fight they both
said they wanted a rematch at some point, and if quillin earns it by beating a top
10 guy, i would like to see a rematch between those two.

and GGG mows through both of them

Of course it is laughable, caldo, but you fell into koolturB's trap by mentioning the guy on the poster duct taped to the ceiling in his mommy's basement apartment

[ikorolev]

... and Quillin has only TWO decent wins: N'Dam and Rosado, and Rosado win was a gift from a ref who stopped the fight due to Rosado's cut when Rosado started bullying Quillin.

Jacobs now has ONE decent win. How would he be the best name on Golovkin's resume ?

Now we are getting into a theoretic area. OK, Lemieux would stop Jackobs in 3. Murray would take Jackobs the distance and likely outpoint him. Pre-GGG Rubio had a good chance of stopping Jackobs. With how Jackobs looked against Truax, I would give decent chances to Stevens and Rosado too.

Once again, Jacobs hasn't demonstrated an ability to beat those opponents of Golovkin. He did demonstrate a poor defense and a glass chin.
