I'm sorry but I swear I just watched a close, competitive fight

    DLH and Hearn both had it 7-5 Canelo, I had it a bit wider than that but make no mistake, the right fighter won here.

      No need to apologise, I saw it a close fight as well, and the commentators didn't call **** for Jacobs. Sad as hell.

      That's why ppl can't stand boxing and prefer mma. You think Joe Rogan could get away with what those boxing hacks we're able to get away with? Fans would crucify him, and he'd feel the impact.

      Boxing fans don't have an outlet besides boxingscene to speak the truth. No one's trying to follow some hack boxing commentators.

        You thought it was close? Seriously?

        I think a decent showing from Danny is what it was. He put up enough of a fight to not feel too bad about this loss, but it wasn't all that close.

        Danny maybe won 3 or 4 rounds, tops.

Had Jacobs been a little busier he could have easily won this fight very decisively since he wasn't getting hit all that much by Alvarez.
          Both guys were pretty sloppy man. I really like them both but if people put emotion aside it's clear Canelo never looks good down the stretch. Jacobs has always been sloppy.

            Canelo landed more power punches than GGG and had a significantly higher connect percentage. Are you high comparing the two?

              Boxing will be fine with fans switching to that kicking and wrestling sport. Hell, boxing has been ''dead'' since Ali retired

                Lol. The same Joe Rogan who screams “ohhhh he’s hurt” every time a solid punch lands?

                  Jacobs could of easily won very decisively? Log out and never log in again. Start watching tennis. Thanks.

                    I'm not even claiming Jacobs won, I'm just really blown away at how bad the commentary was.

                      I scored it 8-4 Canelo, and that was being a little generous to Jacobs I felt. Was expecting wider on the judge's cards, was actually surprised. A draw is laughable and the Boxing Scene "experts" are known to regularly prove they DKSAB.
