Come December 5th, the bout between middleweights Peter Quillin (32-0-1, 23 KO’s) and Danny Jacobs (30-1, 27 KO’s) will be one of the biggest bout to ever take place at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn.
Both Jacobs and Quillin call New York home so it's got a turf war flavour to help promote the huge event..
Lou Dibella is convincing in selling the show, "This is the biggest fight in Barclays history and certainly the biggest fight I will have promoted in Brooklyn and it's going to have the biggest crowd, I think we’ve been doing great crowds with Garcia-Peterson, Garcia Malignaggi. Khan-Algieri did a good crowd. This is going to be a great fight.”
If Dibellas mathematical recipe is correct, of put on a 50/50 fight in the right area, watch the magic happen..
As far as the matchup, it's a natural, both Brooklyn natives, both champions in the same division, both big characters and both former NY golden gloves winners.
Its a matchup that’s been a long time coming. Both guys in their primes , Jacobs overcoming huge adversity in his life has built a huge following, Quillin has Cuban heritage bringing a hispanic element into play.. It's a mouthwatering fight, and there's no (Pacquiao v Mayweather) 18 months of messing around, the fights was easy to make and it's a classic.
