Would canelo beat jacobs?

[bluepete]

Canelo is like five inches shorter than Pirog, who was much lighter on he's feet. It's hard to judge how well Canelo would do against Jacobs size, because we haven't seen him fight someone that big and athletic before.

You forgot Khan and Liam Smith, and Chavez Jr who didn't throw any punches at all.

Yes, I get all that. However, in all honesty Canelo lost all three of those fights I've mentioned against Trout, Mayweather and Lara. He received gift decisions in two of them and almost got one against Floyd.

Did you not see how pirog shoulder roll and counters put a end to Jacobs early...Canelo easily wild brawlers are tailor made for canelo....canelo damn sure ain't about to let a wild brawler box the shyt out of him

Did you not see how lil Floyd walked him down?

Canelito didn't even go near the big boys at 154...because he knows he loses.

Jacobs makes easy work of lil red.

Hmmm....not sure about the Trout one, but then again I haven't actually watched the whole fight The highlights make it look like Canelo was dominating, although the commentators say otherwise in the highlights too so you may be right.

It's no wonder Caneo has gone out of his way to avoid these type of guys since the Lara fight.

In all sincerity, the fight with Austin Trout was close. I remember this forum, was divided over that fight. Most posters had Trout winning that fight due to his activity and workrate. On the other hand, because of the open scoring many fans were irate that Canelo was coasting and not trying hard because he knew he was well ahead on the scorecards.
