just watched the fight - Honest opinion

[i_am_a_champ]

GGG lost

Had an off night?

Couldnt get off?

Problems: counters in punches stun him

Problems: straight combos with left hookz drive him back

Problems: Upper trunk movement confused him this fight as he couldnt let that big shot upstairs go.

He should have worked the body more. A lot more.


That said...its basic math. Footspeed wins.Combos win.( i.e Jacobs this fight)

Canelo looses. Neither has the footspeed to evade or trouble GGG.

If he gets GGG on the ropes he can let his hands go. Slim chance.

GGG knocks Canelo out

Yea, the decision was pretty bad. I'm mostly wondering where GG goes from here now that it's clear to everyone that he can't cope with lateral footwork. Does he adapt his style or stick to what he knows?

Even though Canelo looks basic, he and his team are clever and know how to exploit weakness.

His team are clever i agree. They had a few of floyds tactics on he ropes figured iut and Canelo knew what to do until Floyd switched up immediatly and canelo was lost .


Jacobs team leveraged everything.

Why u think jacobs trainer was urging danny to go up and down with the jab over and over?

Ggg has a slower trunk movement and cant keep up.

The weight played a factor too. Jacobs took some big shots.

Canelo cant bounce around like jacobs.

Hes going to get hunted down. Hes not string enough to push GGG back

It was a close fight but ggg won 114 113 cause of the kd

[-EX-]

I had it 114-113 for Jacobs on 2nd viewing

Rds 1,2,6,7? ,10,11,12 I gave to Jacobs

Rds 3,4,5,8,9 I gave to GGG

I feel crazy giving Danny the last 3 but I felt like he outworked GGG even though a lot of it was BS flurries and slaps, just no urgency from GGG really and couldn't get off...I felt the 7th and 8th were tossup rounds

Regardless nobody CLEARLY won in my eyes, normally I'd say a rematch but no way is that gonna happen...

You are entitled to your opinion. My opinion is GGG had an off night. GGG clearly won just like the judges in Jacobs's hometown said he did. GGG would probably KO Jacobs in a rematch. Canelo is better than Jacobs and has a much better chin. Canelo is a bigger threat to GGG than Jacobs. Just my opinion which is different than yours.

It was a close fight and a lot of rounds could have gone either way. The Boxnation colour commentator scored it for Jacobs, but even he gave Golovkin the last round.

So he's had off nights his last 2 fights in a row? Get real man, the guy is B level...that's it.
