For sure GGG is a favorite, but this is hardly a foregone conclusion fight & if you think it is I'd love to see your betting/prediction history with foregone conclusion fights lol.
Canelo vs Khan & Smith were foregone conclusions. GGG vs Brook was a foregone conclusion. Mayweather vs Berto was a foregone conclusion.
There are plenty of fights in boxing that are still higher profile fights that are foregone conclusions, but between Jacobs power, GGG's inability to avoid getting hit or lack of desire to use his defense & GGG's age potentially coming in play as most great fighters in boxing history have been done or woke up one day at GGG's age & were done I don't see GGG vs Jacobs being one of them.
That said I don't see this fight happening this year any damn way so it won't even matter, although I'm hoping I'm wrong cuz its probably the most meaningful fight either guy could take next time out.

Sorry to ruin the party, this is not a good fight. It's a one sided beat down in the making.
Bank on it
If it goes, say 9 rounds, and Jacob's wins six and outboxes ggg due to speed and skill advantage(before getting koed by accumulation of damage) it will prove that ggg is vulnerable a little hyped, and there are guys who could beat him.
If it goes, say 6 or less and GGG is even or ahead on cards before catching Jacob's with a shot he can't handle, it proves that he would overwhelm every conceivable opponent at 168 or below with the exception of ward dropping down.
It is the tipping fight for ggg detractors. First scenario they can continue to hate on ggg and the people who give ggg too much credit. Second scenario, he pretty much has to be recognized as legit, and haters will be forced to witness, and should expect, the construction of a resume at MW that will put him in the conversation for ATG middleweights..... i.e. ten more champion defenses by KO....
