    Canelo vs Jacobs, Who ya got?

    Didn't think this fight was gonna be next, but with David L f#cking up in December I did suspect Jacobs chances went up.

    Anyway who ya got?

    Lean Canelo's way cuz Canelo is much slicker & crafty, but if this turns into a war Jacobs gots a shot. Although as always if you go to deciscion with Canelo you needs 9 rounds on lock or better to win a 7-5 decision. But yea I see this as a 70/30ish fight Canelo's way & I couldn't argue it against being a lil closer at 60/40 Canelo. Should be a fun one either way. Looking forward to it.

    What say you? *Richard Dwyer voice*

    Canelo is never losing a decision on DAZN in Vegas. Not sure if Jacobs has power to KO him. I lean Canelo (63/35), but this is best fight on paper scheduled in 2019. Lets Go!

        Sucks knowing that if a fight goes the distance, you already know who's going to win. Danny has to KO Canelo and I don't see that happening.

          I have not made a final call who I think will win. And by "I" I mean who I will put down in my book as the winner not who Vegas decides wins. When it comes to who I think Vegas will pick as the winner I lean heavily towards Canelo. I think Jacobs has to beat him decisively and that is a hard mountain to climb when you are talking about the quality Canelo is at. As for me personally I think it will be a very interesting fight. I lean towards Canelo but I can see Jacobs having a plan that will cause Canelo some real headaches. Excellent match-up.

            I applaud this choice by Canelo but at this point in his career this feels empty for me.

            It was clear how bad they wanted GGG3 but GGG learned his lesson that no matter what you do, if you dont get the KO you're not winning against Canelo.

            You cant win against canelo on DAZN and in Vegas. The odds just are not in your favor. After how hard his first fight bombed under the DAZN banner they needed to make a splash and they did.

            So props. If the judging was fair this could be close. But we all know the judging isnt gonna be fair so Canelo by wide decision. Hes not gonna take any chances he doesnt need to. He just needs to look good and make it 12 rounds.

            Probably something like 9-3 Canelo.

              Leaning towards Canelo. Jacobs need to get his stamina up and use his length and lateral movement. I'd say 50/50 but Jacobs accuracy can be bad so 51% or 52% for Cinnamon.

                Jacobs will give canelo a very tough fight! The sad thing is if jacobs keeps it close and then seals up those championship rounds they still wont give him the decision. You basically have to KO canelo to get the W vs him which is *****ing sad.

                I predict jacobs makes this a veryyyy veryyyy close fight much like GGG and post fight boxingscene will be flooded with posts how jacobs was robbed.

                  The fight will most likely go the distance. I have Canelo winning a - legit - 8-4 unanimous decision.

                  Jacobs doesn't have to look for the KO at all costs. I mean if Lara can get two fair scorecards in Vegas against Canelo, so can he.

                    I think Jacobs has gone down hill some since losing to GGG but he is still very good. Canelo is fighting better than ever. I think Canelo hurts Jacobs with a vicious body attack and knocks him out.
