    Canelo knocks him out in my opinion. GGG beat him in Jacobs's home state by ud. Jacobs weighed an estimated 180 pounds against GGG on fight night due to unusual circumstances. He will be closer to 170 for Canelo. GGG dropped him and took some fight out of him and he hasn't looked as since then as he looked then. Canelo will weaken him with a body attack and finish him with body and head combos in my opinion.

        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!
        “No more bums” lol

        Tell me how do you feel about ggg?

          It will be a close fight. Danny wouldn’t get KTFO. Even Golovkin couldn’t do that

            Could be. Canelo's punch technique is alot better than it was 1-1.5 years ago.

              If Sergio mora can drop you , for sure canelo can no you , I think Jacobs saw a lot of Ggg shots coming as the speed wasn’t there , Canelo is faster and more unpredictable although not as powerful , can see Jacobs getting kod by one he doesn’t see coming

                It's possible, it's happened before.

                But after the Pirog fight he's shown some improvement in recoverability.

                He's fought two good punchers after Pirog, which are GGG and Derevyanchenko and fought well against both.

                I'd like to think he's vastly improved and I don't think Jacobs is a "KO waiting to happen" anymore. But man, he did get dropped by Mora and GGG though, so that still lingers in every fight and Canelo can hit hard.

                On the otherhand, Canelo, even though he's shown he has a good chin and doesn't block punches with his face, needs to be careful too. He's gone 12 rounds in each of his last 4 fights but that doesn't mean his power is gone. He did drop Derevyanchenko and Sulecki. He's got not so sneaky power and Canelo needs to be cautious about that.

                  Definitely Canelo can knock Jacobs down with a punch Jacobs doesn't see coming. What bothers me is Jacobs inconsistancy. He was over anxious against Sulecki. Once he settled down he dropped him. Can't afford to do that against Canelo. I believe he can outbox Canelo if he keeps his concentration. Establish his jab go to the body and don't get too brave.

                    Im pretty sure he does. All canelo throws are powershots. The only real danger from jacobs is that short counter overhand as a fighter comes in. Other than late rd rallies, jacobs doesnt do anything the majority of the rds, and by the middle rds he has slowed down.

                      May be he might go down with a body shot as Canelo is a good body puncher but I think this fight goes the distance, Jacobs might outwork Canelo but not get the nod by the judges imo.
