Jacobs most certainly hits harder
He moves on his feet much better
He has a better boxing IQ, more variation to his game
Stronger on the inside tussle
Yep Jacobs definitely is better conditioned than Canelo too
Only thing Canelo really might have to go his way is he can rob a certain loss and turn it into a win If he lasts 12 rounds, he has a decent-ish chin, but that could still be up for debate because he hasn't fought many big punchers (he avoids them).
you're right. Canelo's 3 main attributes are that he's a good combination puncher, he's had a significant size/weight advancement fight night over all of his opponents and lastly, judges for one reason or another seem to be extremely generous to him. It started with the judge who scored his fight vs floyd a draw somehow. Then if you look at his 3 fights vs trout, Lara and cotto, if you take the most lopsided card in canelos favor, profesional judges somehow gave Canelo 30 of the 36 rounds vs those 3 guys. How? An argument can be made that Lara himself won 7-8 rounds.
It's possible but I gotta question Canelo about certain things like, for example. Jacobs moves quicker than Canelo, so how can Canelo say he can do more in that regard?
Canelo is known for being cement footed...so Jacobs\Canelo in movement

Jacobs legs move faster then Canelo but nothing else moves faster then Canelo and he has much better defense, chin, faster hands, better combination puncher, better body puncher, higher Ring IQ and more used to winning tactical boxing battles. Jacobs doesn't win decisions he BEFORE GGG had been to the 10th round but TWICE his entire 33 fight career. Stop pretending like Jacobs is some slick fighter he's not, stop pretending Jacobs is some high IQ fighter he's not he is a guy who tries to knock his opponent out does not try to out point and win decisions. It's an indictment on how basic and simple GGG is that a fighter like Jacobs can in 1 training camp adjust his entire fighting style to outbox GGG. Compared to Jacobs Canelo is much "slicker".
Canelo doesn't fight anything like Jacobs, painfully obvious.
Golovkin can't fight on the outside? Again what the hell is he talking about?
Golovkin fought lemiuex going backwards quite a bit.
Canelo better move better against Golovkin than he did against Lara or he's going to be eating powerful jabs until his eyes swell shut.
So GGG plan is to flat out RUN from Canelo and get booed all night long and fight a style that a more slick Lara was unsuccessful with? If GGG does that his rep never recovers and he loses the fight to a cheer of boos. FYI jabs didn't effect Canelo Lara actually landed only 55 jabs through 12 rounds at 22% connect rate. Lara wasn't effective of anything but running that night. A better comparison is Cotto/Canelo. Cotto didn't run but stayed on the back foot and tried to jab his way to victory. Throwing a career high 374 jabs but ONLY landed 54 at a 14% connect rate. Canelo is VERY good at slipping and avoiding jabs. Lara and Cotto more skilled and intelligent fighters and NEITHER guy landed a high amount of jabs on Canelo. But slower 1 dimensional GGG will? LMAO
