    OP, please list the 7 rounds won by Jacobs. If you can't do that then one of your arguments fails immediately.

    Re: being exposed. The bigger, faster, and supposedly more skilled fighter operated off his back foot for 90% of the fight. GGG couldn't get the KO because Jacobs fought to survive. Remember Danny collapsing against the ropes (or onto the canvas) at the final bell with this massive expression of relief on his face? That's not indicative of a guy who just exposed another fighter IMO.
    THIS RIGHT HERE! Body language was of a guy happy to have made it to the final bell. Not a guy who thought he won.

      GGG wasnt exposed at all. Jacobs was a fcking giant 100% lean muscles and still got dropped. The right guy won that fight and I can't see how you can score for Jacobs.

      Btw I think that Jacobs can beat Canelo. Jacobs is bigger and has better movement. Speed and power are about the same, but maybe even in those Jacobs is better than Canelo considering he fights at mw.

        I hate the word "exposed". It gets thrown around way too often. Exposed to me means anyone can do it and it will work. Maidana exposed Broner for his poor output and stamina, so now EVERYONE just throws a ton of punches at Broner and it will be a close fight at the very least.

        Jacobs used in and out movement and his athletic ability to present a varied attack and plenty of angles. Andre Ward might be the only one from 160-175 that can fight that way. I'm not saying GGG can't be beat, because he can be beat, but not many can implement the gameplan that Danny Jacobs did against him.

          It was a closer fight than people expected, but that's about it.

          Gennady clearly won that. He outboxed, outlanded, dropped down Jacobs. You can hardly make an argument for Jacobs winning more than 4-5 rounds.

          + I believe Jacobs gave it all he could. He almost collapsed at the end of the fight. He simply isn't good enough to beat GGG.

            I think Jacobs won by a point but I think he'd push Canelo's shit in.

                How did he expose GGG? I really don't get this way of thinking.
