Jacobs has however been having trouble winning good fights but since he has won the IBF middleweight title, then he probably has a boost in popularity. Jacobs knocked out Derevyanchenko in the first round delivering 180 punches compared to his opponent delivering 160 punches.

"From sparring him I know he gets a little tired in rounds. Seeing his fights and studying him, I knew that if I let him load up and miss the
shots I could come back and hopefully get another knockdown" he said.
