By Allan Fox: Daniel Jacobs’ promoter Eddie Hearn reportedly is saying he may invite interim WBC middleweight champion Jermall Charlo (27-0, 21 KOs) into the ring for a face-to-face confrontation this Saturday night if he beats Maciej Sulecki (26-0, 10 KO) in their fight on HBO Boxing at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York.
By Dan Ambrose: Daniel Jacobs (33-2, 29 KOs) says that fighters are not running from IBF/IBO/WBA/WBC middleweight champion Gennady Golovkin (37-0-1, 33 KOs) like the way some people believe. Jacobs says the fighters are running towards him to try and get a fight against him.
By Allan Fox: The World Boxing Association has made the Daniel Jacobs vs. Maciej Sulecki fight a final WBA middleweight title eliminator for April 28. The winner of the fight will be the WBA mandatory for the winner of the Saul Canelo Alvarez vs. Gennady Golovkin 2 fight.
By Dan Ambrose: Saul Canelo Alvarez could be given an even bigger suspension by the Nevada Athletic Commission on April 10, which will make it impossible for him to face middleweight champion Gennady Golovkin in a rematch on May 5th in Las Vegas, Nevada.
By Jim Dower: Daniel Jacobs didn’t expect Saul ‘Canelo’ Alvarez to be someone that would test positive for a performance enhancing drug, but nonetheless, he says the fighters are finding ways to cheat in the sport.
By Jeff Aranow: Daniel Jacobs (32-2, 29 KOs) has a tough opponent in Maciel Sulecki scheduled on April 28 on HBO, but if he wins that fight, he says he’ll be pleased to face Jermall Charlo if he doesn’t get the Saul ‘Canelo’ Alvarez vs. Gennady ‘GGG’ Golovkin winner from their rematch on May 5th.
Following a back-stage flare-up this past Saturday night at Barclays Center, former Middleweight World Champion DANIEL JACOBS was emphatic in his words to contender JERMALL CHARLO.
Said Jacobs, “All my focus right now is on Maciej Sulecki and I know it’s going to be a tough fight. This is the third undefeated fighter I have faced in a row and after I’ve taken his 0, then if I don’t get the ‘GGG’ vs. Canelo winner, I’m happy to take Jermall Charlo’s 0 too.”
By Dan Ambrose: Former IBF middleweight champion Daniel Jacobs and unbeaten Jermall Charlo got into a heat confrontation last Saturday night while attending the fight between WBC heavyweight champion Deontay Wilder and Luis Ortiz at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York.
By Dan Ambrose: Former IBF junior middleweight champion Jermall Charlo says he’s ready to face Daniel Jacobs, and he wants to face him at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York. Charlo (26-0, 20 KOs) says he heard Jacobs (32-2, 29 KOs) was trash talking him. He says he should face him. Charlo says Jacobs recently fought Luis Arias, but he didn’t fight him.
By Allan Fox: Daniel Jacobs (33-2, 29 KOs) isn’t overlooking his opponent Maciej Sulecki (26-0, 10 KOs) in their next fight on April 28th at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York. Jacobs says he isn’t looking past Sulecki, but with the way he’s rambling about wanting to rule the middleweight division, it sure sounds like it.
