    Default Jacobs signs for Matchroom. Jacobs-Arias/Miller-Wach/Benn-MexRS (SKY/HBO)

    Interesting news this. I believe this is a big statement of intent from Jacobs. He wants the GGG rematch or Canelo or anyone else. (Although very little chance of BJS growing a pair, seeing as they're on different networks.)
    The point is , for all those people who say "Jacobs isn't a big enough name or high profile " , this changes everything.
    I think that highlights what a load of bollocks that all is.

    So what does this mean for Jacobs? What matchroom fighters can be made for him?

    Jacobs signs for Matchroom?

    It'll be funny when he gets beat by Linares.

    It's not about Matchroom fighters, it's about having the clout behind you to get the big fights with nobody avoiding him. Like your mate in a rematch for example.

    We would have made sense to sign for K2 for GGG rematch and Oscar for Canelo.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    Yeah, in your World.
    1. K2 may not want to sign him if they don't want the rematch.
    2. Why sign a rival to your top man? Lose, lose.
    If GGG wins, you've signed someone with less future earning potential and if Jacobs wins, you've blown your top earner!
    Time for a rethink?

    How does Matchroom give you more clout?
    Bigger man George, bigger punch!

    With the financial backing of Sky/Matchroom , fights can be made easier. They had enough financial muscle to tempt GGG to fight in the UK against a guy 2 weights below, so it's feasible that they can push through fights against Canelo or GGG imo.
    until now, it's been all too easy for Canelo and GGG to ignore Jacobs and push him out of the picture, waiting on the sidelines for sometime never.

    Speaking of ignoring Jacobs, throw Charlo in. And Charlo/Jacobs is quickly getting talk as I said months ago it would, knowing GGG, Canelo, Lemieux and BJS would have no interest in fighting 6'1 guys with power in both hands. Jacobs said he wants the top guys and was the first one to say Charlo's name without "I won't fight" attached. Charlo fired back that he's down. I'm rather sure we all suspect Canelo will go after BJS/Lemieux winner, if GGG won't fight Jacobs or Charlo that leaves those 2 to fight. Any way you slice it MW suddenly has many good possibilities between

    BJS
    Lemieux and the good fighters

    GGG
    Jacobs
    Charlo
    Canelo

    Sucks Canelo is completely in charge of who fights whom.
