Anyone think Canelo chins Jacobs?

[Curtis Harper]

No, I'm almost 100% sure this goes the distance with no knockdowns.

Title fights between legit champs/contenders tend to end this way.

An era nobody really cares about!

I'm trying to think of good opponents for Canelo. Please fight all these Euros at 168 and 75, including Kovalev. Don't waste a fight on Golovkin. Fight Kovalev. Aim higher. I love Kovalev but Canelo could beat him. Fight Bivol and Gvozdyk first.

Dare to be great. No more bums, Canelito!

I personally think Jacobs wins via KO. But you all have to remember that even Sergio Mora knocked down Jacobs....that's a reason for worry for us Jacobs fans.

Canelo would make Jacobs look like a bum. Levels. Watch and learn.

Really amped for this fight.
Jacobs usually fights as good as the occasion so hoping he puts together a blinder and we get a great fight.
I also see it going the distance.
In Nelos favour of course.

They both have the power to KO each other. Canelo is a much sharper, accurate puncher and he's better technically but Jacobs has a much greater reach and size advantage. He's also pretty fast on his feet and he's a smart fighter. I think the fight will get to a point where Jacobs is getting tagged hard and he'll begin to back track in order to avoid getting into exchanges. He may go into survival mode....But that's just one scenerio that I can imagine....Jacobs is an excellent fighter, and if he can use his range and movement effectively , this could be a really difficult fight for the much shorter Canelo. Alvarez won't be able to come in recklessly because Jacobs has the range, power and ability to hurt Canelo, though I think Canelo has a better chin than Jacobs and is tougher bother physically and mentally.

It's possible. One thing I don't like is Danny's accuracy and Canelo is not easy to hit. I'm thinking Canelo on points.

Canelo kinda hittable in straight line,

[creekrat77]

I can already here those body shots and they haven't happened yet.

Canelo is obsessed with ripping left hands to the body now. I can just tell he's only going to meld that even more in his offensive strategy.

Let's not forget Jacob's stopped Kid Chocolate in the 1st round. He also gave GGG a tough fight with his size. He's a big big guy for middleweight. Canelo may be big, filled out, but he is small dimensions wise. Jacob's needs to use that to his advantage. Make him reach and miss. When Canelo get's frustrated he will move in hard and fast with single shots. Jacob's should meet Canelo with that same intensity like how Maidana answered Floyd's pull counter.
My first approximation of Canelo's weakness? The body. Anybody who has that much of an affinity for bodyshots has a weak mid section themselves. He's too stationary with those flat feet and it's because people aren't truly targeting his body. Not yet.

My first approximation of Jacob's weakness? Chin. All that size, strength and will power won't help when you have a vulnerable face/head. I'm not sure if Canelo has the same power and offensive strength to hurt Jacob's like GGG did.

My gut level instinct is Canelo stops Jacob's late. The accumulation of body shots will wear him down enough to it getting waved off after some unanswered punches by Canelo.

[Idunnoshet]

I think it's possible .
It wasn't that long ago that most on here labeled Jacobs as " chinny " .
Looks like overachieving against GGG by surviving with just a knockdown has made believers out of some .

[MONGOOSE66]

Seeing how Jacobs handled G’s power check. I dont see Canelo being a bigger deal. Problem hes going to have is Canelo is quick and shifty.
A good fight either way. Cant wait.
