Re: Peter Quillin vacates WBO title, wants bigger challenges at 160
Doesnt make a lot of sense to me. Its not like quillen had been calling people out for years or something. He knew he was playing is fairly safe. The Jacobs fight has been out there for a few weeks in the rumor mill, and its an all brooklyn fight. I personally think Jacobs needs to be showcased for another fight before they build this. So quillen should have fought Korobov. As it is, they are rushing this and wont get the money they think. Not only that. If quillen loses, he most likely drops out of sight...
I'll watch it.... and Root for jacobs (hope he's got that wild swinging out of his system in the last fight.)
They want your @$$ beat because upsets make news. News brings about excitement, excitement brings about ratings. The objective is to bring you up to the tower and tear your @$$ down. And if you don't believe that, you're crazy.
