Peter Quillin vs. Danny Jacobs in the works for 1st February 2014 at Barclays

I actually think Jacobs will win this. I don't like how Quillin has been looking. He seems too sure of knocking his opponent down with his shots. I know Jacobs isn't where he would like to be considering his obstacle but I think he can outbox Quillin. Quillin just never impressed me. He seems like a guy who is potentially talented but doesn't have a good foundation. Kind of like he is not that good yet. For a world champion he is still greenish. He gives me that Cintron impression.

Great fight and I too think Jacobs can win this.. I think he's a little more skilled than QUillin..

This guy just beat cancer, wtf does he have to fear. When you overcome such obstacle, your mentality changes.

Great fight for Jacobs..

Up until literally 1 fight ago half of all the negative I see being said about Quillin was said about Jacobs. Its a very solid match up, great styles and power wise and awesome for the promotion but to sell Quillin short is a mistake. Jacobs had the look very early of Pirog revisited vs Lorenzo and finally hit a switch in 3rd and gave us a solid ko but dude has holes and he hasn't faced anything close to Quillin in competition..I don't think he is ready and I think he losses.

i never saw anything special in jacobs even before the whole cancer thing. he has always seemed to me like an overhyped fighter. so far, he has turned out about what i thought he would be. he can look impressive against nobodies but cant beat anybody with a name. quillin will KO him within 6.
