Proof GGG took it easy on #37

[BrometheusBob.]

Wins 7-5 on purpose so Canelo and Saunders will fight him

It's all his plan

Same way he let Brook, Murray and Munroe hit him so Jacobs would fight him.

Jacobs GGG was about as close as Pac Floyd

The difference being that there are major media members who actually scored the fight for Jacobs.

This makes no difference. There have been tons of fights where the guy I like won over press row but took an L. You can impress the media and the crowd but the 3 judges around the ring are what matter.

as per abel sanchez, the reason the fight was close is cuz ggg stepped up his competition, the moment he fights a B level fighter he is no longer dominant and gets a controversial close decision...

This by far is the most nut hugging GGG post after his gift Saturday night. Take it easy? Nothing could be worse than not dominating A top middleweight. There will not be a rematch for 1 simple reason GGG knows he would lose. Jacobs said it his self he respected GGG power to much and it was not as much as the media made it seem.

That post was a response to a claim that this fight was 'as close as Pac-Floyd'.

And my point was that this fight was by no means as wide as Pac-Floyd. Not on the judges scorecards, not by media members, not by fan scoring apps etc etc.
