Matt Korobov? :huhldup:..they better get this GGG-JACOBS done gotdammit

Korobov ain't even that bad as an opponent. He had a pretty good scrap with Vera earlier this year.

I would rather Lee get the fight, but both names are better than Wade.

Jacobs still ducking that fade tho.

I don't think Korobov is that bad either...he was giving Andy Lee that work before he got caught iirc & that's his only loss.


Jacobs:snoop:

I do prefer the idea of extending the negotiations and cancelling the Dec. 10 fight...if it leads to GGG-Jacobs. It is the most needed fight at MW, until GGG-Canelo can happen.

@ChocolateGiddyUp is exactly right, Jacobs "insider" was saying they already were in camp preparing for only GGG.

I think the Lee rumors were because he wasnt committed to anything and will fight anyone. But, i remember in a past chat (he also fueled Lee rumors), Dan said Lee wanted time off and a 2017 return was most likely.

I dont hate the Korobov fight possibility, and i wouldnt be surprised if it happened...from a competitive standpoint i think Korobov gets wacked...but Korobov and GGG have ties due to their home countries and amatuer system, so i think on a personal level the fight means something to them (they both have said so).
It still is a lower tier fight and deserves criticism, but at least i understand why they made it, then some random bum.

It is funny cause I was thinking the other day if Korobov was ever a possibility for GGG.

He isnt as bad as some will say, but also not as good as the networks wanted him to be. For a minute HBO was investing in him to try and build him into a GGG opponent, then Lee KO'd him and he fell of the face of the earth. Dude is actually an okay fighter and i am suprised he hasnt gotten better fights to progress his career.

He doesnt deserve a GGG fight or bring much hope he could win, but in today's state of boxing he certainly isnt the bumiest of bums.

He's not a bum at all.
