I would favor Jacobs to win. He is a harder puncher and a more proven champion who has fought better opponents. Somehow Jermall got to be a middleweight champion without beating a very good middleweight. Jermall had a close fight with Trout and never hurt Trout much and I think Jacobs would have knocked that same Trout out. It's time for Jermall to fight a really good middleweight to see if he can back up his constant bragging.Comment

When exactly did Jermall become a MW champion?I would favor Jacobs to win. He is a harder puncher and a more proven champion who has fought better opponents. Somehow Jermall got to be a middleweight champion without beating a very good middleweight.

Trout is tricky, but he was certainly stunned a few times in that fight. He even mentioned it saying Jermall could really crack. What Trout did was make Jermall pay for looking for the big shot in the 2nd half of the fight and had some success.
In this match up, I just trust Jermall's chin more than Jacobs' chin. Jacobs has a terrible habit of backing straight out and gets caught with hooks. And on the inside Jermall is as cool and calm as damn near anyone in the game. He will have to overcome Jacobs jab, but the same goes for Jacobs who got hit with Derevyanchenko's and GGG's jab quite a bit. This is a fantastic match up, lean Charlo though.Comment

Jacobs wins a close decision. He can definitely confuse Charlo alot, Change to southpaw and use lateral movement. I think he can Make Charlo miss and make him pay, but he will also get hit with some big shots in return. The Trout fight showed me that Jermall is very beatable and I think Jacobs has the style and experience to do just that. I could be wrong thoComment

The last 2 fights Jacobs had he was getting hit with some flush shots but if he can take Charlo's power, he'll get the W.

Charlo seems terrified of Charlo. Jacobs really wants the fight but Charlo wants to face the Monroes and Centenos lol
On a side note - how come Charlo is really popular with the LDBC black fans... but the much more proven Jacobs hardly has any fans?Comment

We all know talk is cheap and the Charlos Talk to media and others well. Jacobs is a solid pro , not flashy , not talking stuuf on youtube or to some dontaes' boxing or such. He just goes out and wins.Comment
