Probably, I expect GGG to be wary of Jacobs power early on. It's a great fight, the two best middleweights in the world. The odds on Jacobs might tempt me to back him.
Are you joking this is the most eagerly anticipated fight of all time it is impossible to call the winner right now, I slightly favor Jacobs because he can take a punch and Golovkin is not knocking the entire division over.
This fight won't last more than 5 rounds. If GGG gets caught the way he was getting caught by Brook then it will be lights out for him. Same for Jacobs, if he gets caught it's lights out.
Having said that, I favor GGG to win but it aint out of the question for Jacobs to take it, but only by KO as I don't see this going the full twelve rounds and even if he did, I don't think Jacobs can win a decision.

Usually this would be a momentous fight the no.1 vs the no.2 guy in the division but it's a poor fight, said it before the most exciting part of a GGG fight is calling the round he stops his opponent, this will be no different. I'll say it's over in 5-6 rounds. Jacobs has enough power to keep GGG honest for a few rounds, and he moves well enough to potshot the ferocious feral beast in front of him.
I think Jacobs will last longer because of the danger he poses to an attacking GGG. That said, I still think he gets figured out and knocked out in ten or less. He will not hurt GGG because he will simply not land clean enough.
