    Agree

    I think Canelo would lose against Jacobs.

      Agree, Jacobs style is all wrong for Canelo.

      Been thinking what if Canelo wins, and I bet a fight against Jacobs (or Charlo) wouldn't happen. Jacobs and Charlo could face off for the WBC belt maybe, so they wouldn't be frozen out, but Canelo would busy himself with a Cotto rematch and winner of Monroe/Saunders for the first year of his reign for a couple of soft touches.

        Both would embarrass him. He's too small and slow to beat either of them. He'd be giving up 4 and 5 inches in height and arm length. He has a better chance against against GGG for the size and athletic variables, but I still think GGG will be superior, just because he's a better boxer.

        He'd probably be stopped by Danny and jabbed like crazy against Charlo to a TKO loss.

            Jacobs would of probably won but not by KO. He boxed on his back foot and backwards most of the fight without throwing any serious power punches.

            If he fought like that yes he would win. If he fought aggressive, come forward??? 50/50 fight because his Khan like chin.

            Again if Pillow fisted Mora dropped him I'm sure a good solid hit from Canelo would at least drop him or worse.

              And a lot of boxers and experts are picking Canelo.

              This fight is going the distance and that's the SAFEST bet to make.

                No he wouldnt have, the judges would have seen fit to give Canelo a unanimous decision victory if he manged to see 12 rounds. Probably very wide decision as well.

                  Jacobs would lose by robbery.

                    It's funny how some folks try to judge GGG's entire career and ability on his fight with Jacobs, that's bit like judging Marvin Hagler on his performance against Roberto Duran (Hagler struggled against the former lightweight before winning a very close decision), or judging Foyd Mayweather on his performance against Castillo (a fight which most thought he lost clearly).
                    That's what happens when you take the first step up in class though, people judge you off that because it's your first big test. Golovkin hadn't fought anyone who was really good until Jacobs. It's a bad comparison because Hagler didn't struggle against Duran at all and it was actually a dominating performance. I think I gave Duran maybe 3 rounds. Mayweather got judged off the Castillo fight but then ended all that talk by winning the rematch easy. Unless the Canelo fight is really controversial and warrants a rematch he needs to fight Jacobs again after.
