Comments Thread For: Golovkin Drops, Decisions Jacobs in Toughest Career Fight

[King_]

how would you have scored the fight minus the kd ?

I didn't keep track, but I think 7-5 is the best you could give Danny, IMO.

8-4 seems about right, but I'd have to re-watch and score.

I wouldn't say robbery or that I'm devastated by results but I had Jacobs winning

then you're a ****in ******. GGG won

i had dj winning by 1 rd. not upset he lost. even w/o that kd. the better man won. they usually do.

especially when they land more punches, right compubox haters ?!?!?!?

they know who they are

I had it 114-113 to GGG
Mad respect to Danny.. he came in with the better game plan, if not for the KO I think he would have a draw as the best outcome.. Golovkin didn't press action against the ropes and Danny has got amazing speed.. warrants a rematch!

There goes GGG ever moving up to fight Super Middleweights! At least any of the good ones.

K2 was VERY wise keeping Ward away from GGG. I always knew Ward would win that fight all day and everyday. But this just shows how easy it would of been for him...

7-5 is correct. A lot of British/Euro experts had Jacobs winning though.

7-5 seemed fair ...Trella must have had a even around somewhere with his odd score but this is probably the best thing that could have happened 2 GGG going 12...

[angkag]

Just to remind everyone, the 4 criteria judges score on are
- clean punching
- effective aggressiveness
- ring generalship
- defence

Lots of talk about the punches thrown/landed, but on the defence side (punches landed/thrown %)

Total: Golovkin 37.6%, Jacobs 32.3%
Jabs: Golovkin 29.5%, Jacobs 18.2%
Power punches: Golovkin 48.6%, Jacobs 38.8%

To give Jacobs a majority of the rounds on the established scoring criteria, you have to really want to.

Geegg won the fight im looking at it a second time im not sure what people are seeing that makes danny win by 2 rds... good fight tho but jacobs let geegg get off first too much he gave the fight away, he could have won too
