Comments Thread For: Canelo: Jacobs Is A Much More Difficult Opponent Than Golovkin

[MickG]

Alvarez did not say that Jacobs was better than Golovkin, he said that Danny was a more difficult fight for him because he brings more elements to his game, such as movement, ability to fight from both the right and left-hand stance and so on. He said that Jacobs is a more complete fighter. This is basic stuff nothing difficult to understand here, yet the distinction and nuance escape you.

Yay! Someone takes the time to read the article before jumping in right the righteous fire..Good man

Yeah.......Canelo is dreaming.....

GGG>Jacobs/Canelo.....but Jacobs is better........

I have to disagree.

STFU pednelo alvaroidz, phukin’ cheater lol Hopefully Jacobs will spark you

but he still has a very bad achilles heel ... He's too flat-footed and plants his feet too firmly.

50\50 Fight ...... without the judges, 100/0 for Canelo with the judges.

maybe he is flat footed because he has a bad achilles heel ^^

also fixed those percentages for you ^^

A lot of triangle theories going on here, and they don't usually work as styles make fights.

Golovkin gets attention as he's a recent common opponent, so understandable that he comes up. What is for sure is that, no matter who we think won what, Golovkin/Jacobs/Canelo all demonstrated themselves to be at the same level a couple of years ago - from there, its all about styles and what's happened since.

Canelo is either the same or better, Golovkin likely aged and not so good any more, and don't know about Jacobs yet. Arguably Golovkin's style is better for Canelo as he doesn't move like Lara for example, and as Canelo implemented in the 2nd fight, isn't as effective going backwards.

Jacobs moves differently than Golovkin, is more adept at fighting going backwards, so it might indeed be a harder fight for Canelo style wise, but this doesn't mean he's 'better' than Golovkin was, just that his style might be more difficult for Canelo to crack (or not, we'll find out on the night).

Canelo will be able to come through

Says the guy who lost 2 fights against Golovkin.

I'll take that bet? How much you willing to WiN?

[Junbengreat]

hold on a sec, he barely squeaked past ggg in that fight and lost the first (imo) but now hes facing a much more difficult opponent, has canelo discovered another 25% in his game at least since then or is he by definition doomed in this fight by his own admission ^^

How is he going to beat a much more difficult opponent than ggg when he might have even lost to the lesser opponent, this will be tough ^^ He must have found some new special meat in that case

By your effed up logic than Canelo should be Jacobs with ease because Jacobs lost to ggg and knocked him down. That’s if we are going by your effed up logic.

For as awful is g apparently is in everybodys minds they do seem to bring him up a lot.

maybe yourself and that shadow guy should actually read the thread title, golovkin is in it LMAO or maybe u did read it ^^
