Jacobs looking bigger than GGG

[doninlouisiana]

Gennady "Good Boy" Golovkin (36-0-0) vs Daniel "Miracle Man" Jacobs (32-1-0)
Middleweight / 160 lbs / 12.0 Stone
3.19.17 HBO, Madison Square Garden

I see Jacobs winning the early few rounds with activity, having early limited success similar to Brook but keeping his distance with fully extended punches and movement. GGG takes over in the early-mid rounds to close the gap on the cards, and forcing Jacobs into a fight as GGG stays on top of him. I see a bloodbath, a phonebooth fight with Jacobs against the ropes, getting stopped late in a controversial wave off by the ref, trying to save the heap of blood and flesh that Golovkin is pounding away at deep in the 11th.

That would be amazing if we get that good of a fight, I'm sure hoping for it.

$65 on Ring TV

Better be HD if they're going to charge the same as TV.

I can't speak for Ring TV, but when Top Rank distributes PPV on their site they charge the HD price for the HD version of the stream and don't offer a non-HD price or stream. I bet this is the same deal here.

Jacobs looking bigger than GGG

Maybe height wise bigger but looks thinner around his body (chest, back, stomach). That being said it's likely Jacobs will weigh a bit more on fight night. He was 170 fight night for Pirog and he looked thinner then than he does for his most recent fights.

GGG looks to be in terrific shape, doesn't look as sunken in in the face as he did for weigh in with Brook.

[Ce1ska]

It's worth noting Jacobs is wearing some huge ass timbs there.

Pirog fight was nearly seven years ago, of course he's going to look bigger. Probably comes in around 175, GGG 170.

GGG is a small middleweight. I dont understand why boxing fans cant accept that.
