Crybaby Jacobs: Golovkin Will Avoid Rematch With Me, I'm Too Much Risk

“I think they might avoid me, to be honest with you,” Jacobs told BS.com. “I think I’m a lose-lose situation. “I think I’m too much of a risk, no reward. In my opinion, Triple-G the fighter probably wants to rematch me, because in his heart he wouldn’t be able to retire without defending such a controversial decision.
“So we’ll see what happens. I’m not expecting it. I’ll push for it. I’m definitely gonna push for it. In my opinion, I’ve done enough to have big fights with other fighters in the middleweight division because even with this loss, we still proved that we’re the best and we can take over the middleweight division.”
“I feel like I won the fight because I feel like I did enough,” Jacobs said. “He definitely landed a lot more jabs than I did, but I landed a lot more combinations and power punches than he did. Now if you’re judging the fight based on the jab, then yeah, he won the fight. But it’s the overall package. If you go back to [the knockdown], it really wasn’t a legitimate knockdown. But you have to score it because it was [from] a punch.
“I can’t cry about me being off-balance because that’s the name of the game. It comes with the territory, so I understand those two points. But as I’m scoring the rounds, I mean, I’m being as neutral as possible – but I’m still giving me rounds, close rounds, that I feel like I deserve, that I feel like I edged out. He didn’t have that momentum. He didn’t have the crowd into the fight. You didn’t see the same Triple-G fight that you normally see.”
“I think if I do [get a rematch] it’ll be at the very end of his career,” Jacobs said. “And then when I knock him out, I probably wouldn’t get the credit then. It would be a losing situation for me, but in my heart I’m happy with the fact that I proved to myself that that night I’m the best middleweight in the world.”
Why Jacobs just dont STFU about the GGG fight and come to say 'I want to fight Lemieux or Jermall next' ? He looks annoying with this ol' $het!
