Daniel Jacobs hints at the GGG fight happening in 2016

[brettWall]

No way loeffer let's gg fight jacobs. He will come up with a million excuses. Like the purses, venue,network etc etc.
Loeffer is a conniving snake

You'll never know. The victory and euphoria they had from the Quillin fight could end any time. It could end in his next non-3G fight. Who knows? Might as well make it ASAP before the celebration ends.

The WBA is supposed to release the time-line for the mandatory to take place anytime now.

why not? At some point doesn't the have to have super and regular fight?

It will be ordered the timeline will be clarify by a resolution during the convention

— Gilberto J Mendoza (@GilberticoWBA)

and at the convention 2 classy middleweight champions

— Tom Loeffler (@TomLoeffler1)

When was the WBA resolution?

I would think they would have an answer by now?

[Beercules]

Make it happen.

like I said , amir khan of mw, never been outboxed just knocked out...

well, dunno about the algieri fight tho

Khan is weird because although he was KO'd by Prescott/Garcia, hurt by Diaz, he survived bigger bombs from Maidana.

To be fair, Jacobs was actually beating Pirog and had lost his grandmother a few days before the fight.

As insane as the Mora knockdown was, it was a flash knockdown. And of course, if GGG catches Jacobs like that, it's game over.

The problem is, what if Jacobs catches GGG? We haven't seen GGG hit with someone who posesses the power and speed of Jacobs who is also capable of outboxing GGG if GGG decides to box and not rush in.

Only by the crooked GB judges. Pirog was outboxing Jacobs clearly for 3 of the first 4 rounds, nearly had Jacobs down in the 1st.

[Hougigo]

Not really hinting at anything

that was pre Robert Garcia maidana.. the one who fought Floyd would've koed amir khan EVEN with hoe cortez's help

It ended on the 19th, I don't why they haven't released it yet. They might be waiting til after the holidays. They had mandated Jacobs vs Eubank first, but Eubank might be going after the British title instead or abandoning the WBA for the WBO held by Saunders, even then Eubank and Hearns said the WBA fight could range anywhere from 3 to 9 months from now.

Which rounds did you give Pirog?

I had it 1,3, and 4 for Jacobs.

Eubanks vs Jacobs is a good fight as well.

If you could call the shots, given Canelo is also in the mix, how would things play out for you in 2016 with Canelo, Jacobs, GGG, etc?
