Gennady Golovkin v Daniel Jacobs - 18/3/17 MSG

[smashup]

Can't wait for this one and i see this as Golovkins biggest test to date against the "miracle man".
Two MASSIVE punchers with KO records of - Jacobs 88% and Golovkin 92% so there's no way this goes the distance.

We saw Golovkin backed up a few times with a bloody nose against Kell Brook last time out, read into that what you like but the facts are that was a Welterweight doing it to him, surely Jacobs has watched that fight over and over and will (i hope) just meet GGG centre ring and have a tear up.

On the other hand even though Brook did back GGG up Golovkin seemed to thrive on it and just waved him in for more.

This has war written all over it and i'll be staying up for this one.
