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

[Sleepwalker]

It seems as if Jacobs is relying so much of Kell Brook's early success against GGG and is saying to himself: "If Kell can do it, why can't I? Plus, I'm bigger and stronger."

But NOT quicker. Add the fact that GGG almost intentionally stood in front of Brook.

well I'm all geared up for the long night ahead, I've just realized that Iron Fist is now on Netflix so I can get a fair few episodes watched before the boxing starts

[imp]

Jacobs has already lost.

If he's not bothered about making weight and getting the ibf belt then he can't be bothered about anything else.

So unprofessional.

This is a cracking matchup but I don't think Jacobs is tough enough to take a beating. Getting ironed out by Pirog ain't half as bad as being dumped by Mora - it wasn't even a nothing flash knockdown, he sat there like a space man then had a wibble-wobble standing up.

Jacobs can obviously punch, but I can't see Golovkin getting snipered with one shot, you'd need to bash him up to stop him. Golovkin is too smart to start reckless, he'll have a little look at first, which will make Jacobs sniper right-hand from distance look sexy, then Golovkin will take the distance away from him, force him to fight going backwards and it's goodnight vienna.

Golovkin KO rd 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 at a general 10/1-14/1.

(sorry to write this, not my style, but I'd be surprised if Jacobs isn't brutally knocked out)

I think the same way, but hope Jacobs can win a few rounds and maybe go the distance. That would be an achievement and far beyond what anyone else has done against GGG.

Shows how tough Murray was

[smashup]

Said before i think GGG will do exactly what he did against Lemieux but will Jacobs come forward looking for single shots like Lemieux?

I also have a gut feeling this could be like Hagler v Hearns at some point

Really wanna see Golovkin take some heavy shots and be in the trenches tonight, hopefully Jacobs is the man to finally do that
