canelo aint no king, he's a queen.

Danny was landing the uppercut all night and when he let off flurries GGG just froze.

upper body movement nullified GGG attacks on the ropes.

GGG needs space, stationary target and be able to have both feet planted before he fires. he has a rock solid chin, missile jab and great timing but Danny's handspeed and reflexes made him think twice.

Canelo has faster handspeed and better reflexes than Jacobs. a better uppercut, better defense and way better counter puncher. GGG fires one shot at a time, Canelo is gonna be slipping shots inside and ripping off combos like a beast.

GGG chin will keep him upright but he'll lose a wide decision. taking a beating.

Danny's best asset was his footwork. Canelo doesn't have that

He will land plenty on GGG in the pocket but without being able to move around and stop GGG from setting he'll take a beating in the end

Don't see a rematch happening. Danny Jacobs is not a real middleweight and that's why all the shernanigans surrounding the really early first weigh in then Jacobs being a no show for the second. What most also fail to realize is Jacobs LOST the fight and it was only close when looking at it from the perspective of a Jacobs fan who gave any round Danny wasn't knocked down in to him. Jacobs landed some good shots and his light heavyweight size prevented him from being knocked out but even with every advantage given him, he lost! GGG haters are now saying what a great boxer Canelo is and how now he'll beat GGG. Father time will be the downfall of GGG and not Canelo who folks have already forgot has avoided GGG to the point of giving up his title and moving down to fight blown up welterweights. As a boxer ? Well Mayweather embarrassed him and even his handlers know he's limited and that's why you see all the careful cherry picking of opponents. Lets be honest the only thing that makes Canelo so marketable is his ability to draw boatloads of fans because of his mexican heritage not his awesome boxing ability. Canelo can be defined as a young mexican fighter who has beaten some of the best smaller, past their prime fighters still active today. He should fight a few active middleweight contenders before he gets a shot at the title. Why reward him for running away

I want some of the medication that has you feeling this way. Danny Jacobs is not a real middleweight?? The guy has fought pretty much his whole carrier there. How the hell is he not a real middle weight? Call him a big middleweight, but to not call him a middleweight is ******. GGG weighed 169.9 on the next day weigh-in, and I can only image he went up to about 170-175 fight time are you gonna call him not a true middleweight ? Jacobs on the podium after the fight said he weighed about 175 before the fight. GGG upper body has significantly more mass that Jacobs.

GGG = a King that excites people and fights anyone (Notice Seinfeld, Louis CK, Dave Chappelle in the audience - people want to be entertained)

Canelo = a Princess with the charisma of a wet noodle, promoted by a she-male that gave away his belt, no one is going to watch his boring ass catchweight fight against a drained mexican waiter

No one is gonna watch his fight ???
Is that why it sold out 2 months in advance...quit while you're ahead.YOUARENOTBOXING YOU ARE A HATER

naw. Canelo handspeed and reflexes will have GGG frozen and covered up. GGG throws one punch at a time. tailor made for a guy who counters with 4-5 punch rapid fire combos. Canelo don't need no legs to beat GGG. if you notice Jacobs had more success in the pocket letting his hands go and on the ropes upper body movement nullified GGG's attack. he was eating uppercuts nonstop, one of the most lethal Canelo weapons.

GGG takes a beating. a heavy tattooing.

Great point NEETzsche. Honestly, after the fight Saturday, I thought Canelo could handle GGG. You're right, though, that Jacobs moves a lot better than Canelo.

I was surprised that GGG froze so much when taking shots and wasn't good at countering.

I scored the fight 114-114, but some of those rounds were really close. Also, I'm pro GGG, so may have been overcompensating for Jacobs.

[twosweethooks]

I can't remember when a lineal champ was too chicken to fight a man for his title and just give it to him !!!

What is truth is you take the title from the champ in da ring by beating him BUT this here Mang just GAVE the title to GGG !!! WOW !!!

Big D did NOT beat GGG maybe next time??? Maybe Not!!!
