Comments Thread For: Saunders: Jacobs Must KO Canelo, He'll Never Get a Decision!

[Shadoww702]

I didn't use the word robbery. I said he's benefitted from favorable scorecards more than anyone else I can think of. I can't think of 1 bad scorecard scored against Canelo, but there are several that I can point to that are ridiculous and nowhere close to what happened in the ring. He gets the benefit of the doubt in almost every close round. You tell everyone that they predicted a ko for ggg yet you and I had several back and forths where I told you that I expected the fight to go 12 and wouldn't take your foolish bet that Canelo wouldn't last the distance. Now, during the weigh in when canelo was acting all out of character, I thought he would put himself at risk of getting ko'd if he fought ****** but other wise that's it.

Round 3 Morratti had Ggg

It's funny that everyone says this, but in reality if you've watched all of Canelo's fights... Personally I've only had him losing to Mayweather.

That also happens to be the only loss on his record. So... Not sure what everyone is talking about lol.

gayweather jr got robbed as well. a judge scored it draw. you are living on denial street.

Your su****ion is very ignorant considering Canelo has already suffered injury’s in fight and we barely were able to squeeze it out of Canelo! Keep in mind he injured his knee in the first ggg fight and we didn’t find out about that till after the clenbuterol fiasco which he probably orquestrated just so he could have his knee surgery performed!

It’s very possible. Canelo is a heavy stocky guy on the upper frame, his movement in the first GGG fight was very unorthodox for his style and its very likely he twisted it during that fight. We’ve seen fights like from Danny Wheeler or Groves whose injuries in a fight were far worse yet they finished.

Now Canelo is starting to walk forward with a high guard and different approach. It may very well be that Canelo is insecure to hurt his kneee again, because only the athlete knows what it feels like, so it’s very well possible that Canelo is cautious. Never thought about this before. Caenlo’s been using a knee brace for everything since his surgery. That’s fff’d up but lucky he got a bag with DAZN. Not sure how long Canelo can hold out on that injury in the next 5 years. The guy’s a beast.

One judge scoring it a Draw will never technically have “their” fighter winning. You need more than 1 judge to have a fighter win. If 2 judges had a 114-114 card that would seem like a su****ious attempt, but not one card. That’s not how robberies work, and these officials are all at the same dinners with the promoters before the fight.

I thought you supported Canelo.

I did supported Canelo over GGG's overhyped ass, but now the problem with Canelo is that even if they put a big threat like Jacobs against him, its not going to be as exciting going into the fight knowing that regardless what Jacobs does, Nelo will win a decision.

This is getting to be a bit Passe.

I liked GGG and felt he shoulda got the W in the first fight, and yeah Canelo is the home town boxer in Vegas so he will benefit from the cards a bit (as happens with all home town fighters and really home teams in all sports). But everyone is making it out to be like he is getting Sven Ottke treatment. It aint that bad.

Will he get the benefit of close rounds? Most likely. Can he lose a decision? Yes. Will he? Gotta wait and see.

I think you’ve assumed I’m one of the band of Canelo haters, i’m not and never have been. I was probably marginally a bigger fan of GGG when they went head to head but even then was prepared for it to go either way.

I have a history on this forum of making big calls, often unusual predictions that come true, so don’t go thinking I’m talking nonsense. Going back to Garcia vs Khan I called the round and the method of despatch, I was the first to call out Canelo on PED’s way before the news broke (like a year before) and I took a tirade from his fans on here for that. I recently predicted a draw in Fury vs Wilder and voila! That’s what we got. Not to mention only last week calling out that Fury vs Wilder 2 would wait whilst Wilder fought Breazeale and look how that’s going.

So have your pen and paper and jot down the points per round as to elude doubt against scorecards and your own criteria for winning a fight?

[sportbuddha]

Oh sure cause Canelo has a history of quitting in fights and making excuses when he loses the way he did against Mayweather huh??
You idiot!

Hold on a second here Stomps, I’m not making these predictions as some kind of sideways Canelo hating. I have made crazier predictions on here that have come true.

The reason I think this is possible is more to do with circumstance. Jacobs is coming to make a statement and Canelo is now on a huge contract and just expected to win. Canelo imo was on more PEDs than just the Clubeterol (and I really don’t want to get into a debate on this specific subject, we can agree to disagree), but imo he has had to reign those in and with each subsequent fight I believe he’ll lose some stamina. Also, you are right, Canelo to date has been like granite, but he is a human and after two wars with GGG he might begin to break down. Quitting on his stool is a long shot, getting KO’d not so much, Jacobs can punch and gets stronger as fights go on, he’ll be dangerous in later rounds.

Wow..I agree with BJS. It will probably rain today. Let's break it down though: both have good chins, I don't see knock out either way. Both are on elite level meaning that the fight will be close, there will be no one-sided action there. And we all know how close fights are judged when Canelo is involved. Its only logical to assume that Danny will lose. Its not even about Danny's ability as such, replace Danny with any elite fighter's name and it will be the same outcome. There is no suspense, no surprising results when Canelo is involved. I don't hate Canelo, I respect him as a fighter and even his PEDs issues, I think he did it because of some self-doubt (unfounded, perhaps) rather that out of necessity. Fighter like him does not need PEDs, but, sadly, he sometimes needs the judges.
