ok thought I was the only that favored Keith in the ring even though it looks like he's unsure if he'll be back to 100 in the next few fights...funny enough if you ask Danny about their last fight, he feels like he won

Watching this Floyd/Judah fight..Floyd got hit kind of hard in the 4th. Judah looked pretty good in the first two rounds as well.

Nowhere's safe for my brother Keith as far as competition...he wants to get a few light touches before he ramps up the level of competition. EVERYONE else (media, fighters, some fans) ain't having it.
god...i just hope there is a purpose to all this for jacobs..keep pairing him with big baby..i might have to take a quick nap before this fight airs so i can stay awake through it lol
Daniel Jacobs vs. Maciej Sulecki Finalized For April 28, HBO
Daniel Jacobs will face undefeated Polish dangerman Maciej Sulecki at Barclay Center, Brooklyn on April 28 on a huge night of action live on HBO and Sky Sports, as Katie Taylor aims to unify the Lightweight division against Victoria Bustos and Jarrell Miller and Johann Duhaupas clash in an eliminator for the WBA World Heavyweight title.
Jacobs is back in action at the scene of his biggest career victory, a stunning first round knockout of Brooklyn rival Peter Quillin in December 2015. Known as the “Miracle Man”, for his miraculous recovery from cancer in 2012, Jacobs is returning to battle following a dominant 12-round unanimous decision over then undefeated Luis Arias in November at NYCB Live, home of the Nassau Veterans Memorial Coliseum.
Challenging for Middleweight supremacy in March 2017, Jacobs lost a very hotly contested and controversial 12-round decision to Gennady Golovkin in New York City, the first distance fight for Golovkin in nine years.

Jacobs is currently world ranked #2 by the WBA and #3 by the WBC, IBF and WBO in addition to being ranked #3 by ESPN.com. This will be his fifth time fighting in his hometown venue, Barclays Center and his second fight under new promoter Eddie Hearn and Matchroom Boxing USA.
“I’m very excited to be back in the Barclays Center, it always feels like home fighting there,” said Jacobs. “I want to thank Eddie Hearn, HBO and Brett Yormark for making it possible.”
“I’m looking forward to fight Sulecki on April 28, he’s an undefeated guy that I know will be looking to make a name for himself by beating me. I’m looking to have a great training camp and get myself focused to really put on a show for the Brooklyn fans come April 28.”
A native of Warsaw, Poland, now living in Florida, Sulecki capped a very successful 2017 with a ten round unanimous decision over former world title challenger Jack Culcay in October at the Prudential Center in Newark. Over the course of his eight years as a professional, Sulecki has compiled wins against notables including Hugo Centano Jr., Grzegorz Proksa, Darryl Cunningham and Damian Ezequiel Bonelli. Sulecki is ranked #6 in the world by the WBO.
“This is an excellent opportunity for me to fight one of the very best Middleweights in the world,” said Sulecki. “I’ll be very well prepared to stay undefeated and defeat Jacobs in front of the Polish boxing fans at Barclays Center as I continue my march to become a world champion.”
Heavy-handed Miller scored two dominant stoppages in 2017. Fighting for the first time at Barclays Center in July 2017, Miller stopped former world title challenger Gerald Washington at the end of eight rounds.
Following that up most recently, Miller stopped former world title challenger Mariusz Wach in the ninth round in November 2017 at Nassau Coliseum.
Duhaupus stormed through 2017 with three dominant wins including an eighth-round stoppage of Newfei Quatah in December in Levallois-Perret, France.
Among the top names Duhaupus has battled over his thirteen-year professional career are WBC Heavyweight Champion Deontay Wilder, Alexander Povetkin, Robert Helenius, Manuel Charr and Erkan Teper. Miller is currently world ranked #3 by the WBO, IBF and WBA while Duhaupus is world ranked #7 by the WBC.
“Nothing makes me more gratified and blessed to do what I love best and that’s to get back in the ring and continue to solidify my place as the next Heavyweight Champion of the world,” said Miller.
“This fight on April 28 is just the next step to being recognized as the best in the world and a training ground for Anthony Joshua and Deontay Wilder. Thank you HBO, Eddie Hearn and Dmitry Salita for this amazing opportunity. Big Baby Miller and Big Baby Promotions is here.”
“A top Heavyweight does not have to be heavy or light, fat or slim – a Heavyweight just needs to be strong,” said Duhaupas. “I will show on April 28 that I am strong enough to beat Jarrell Miller.”

it ain´t that bad... how many better opponents free for him out there?
I mean let´s see Charlo for example, another MW contender. He fights the dude who was KOd by Sulecki not too long ago.
that fight has no heat to me...but worse big baby is on the card who i think is complete struggle..at least if there was a better fight paired up i wouldnt mind it too much
it will be funny if keith's fukkery leads to him getting stripped of his belts (if this continues after the warmup)..then lucas would be the lone WBA champion
..something i can rock with since arum/WBO/possibly oscar kept him away from bashing up hornIf Thurman was smart to get heat off of him he should fight the AB Figgy loser(AB) or Granodos and beat him emphatically to completely take Porter off the table but the boy is pure bytch out here so lets see.....Finds it comical Porter in nikkas faces after getting his ears lightweight boxed off.....Too much fukkery brehsit will be funny if keith's fukkery leads to him getting stripped of his belts (if this continues after the warmup)..then lucas would be the lone WBA champion

RIP MR. SMOKE
And nobody will say anything as all these guys keep fighting no name bums and still expect canelo to fight little g, charlo, and Danny in consecutive fights
......hbo has both Danny and Andrade, but they can't get em in the ring together
......why even sign Danny if you aren't gonna get him fights that actually increase his star power
......no wonder hbo boxing is dying
If Thurman was smart to get heat off of him he should fight the AB Figgy loser(AB) or Granodos and beat him emphatically to completely take Porter off the table but the boy is pure bytch out here so lets see.....Finds it comical Porter in nikkas faces after getting his ears lightweight boxed off.....Too much fukkery brehs
after this warmup, hes going to be forced to face a mandatory...be it for the WBA or WBC...which is porter or danny..they are not going to let him live fighting once a year in 2018
