Originally posted by EasternEuroFan View PostI had it about 7-5 Canelo.
I thought Jacobs won rounds 1, 7, 8, 9 10 and Canelo got the other rounds. Round 1 could've been a Canelo round, but round 3 could've been a Jacobs round.
Depending on how you scored those rounds, it could easily be a 6-6 or 7-5 either way. But i think Canelo just edged it in the last couple of rounds.
I think Canelo was the better fighter throughout the fight overall and deserved the win, but when you actually tally up the rounds, it appears to be a closer fight.

Originally posted by buddyr View PostI didn't give round 1 to anyone. Neither fighter did anything. I know judges feel the need to actually give round to one fighter, but there have been more even 1st rounds than people care to acknowledge. So many 1st rounds of fights that nothing happens and both guys either land 1 or 2 punches then compubox comes with bs numbers to persuade the audience than one is doing more than the other. I have no idea why judges are afraid to give even rounds when there are little to no punches landed from either guy

Those kind of rounds are generally going to get scored for Canelo.

The fight was close but there's no way Jacobs should've won. A draw would be generous.
I like Jacobs but he just didn't do enough to win. He fought with no sense of urgency. He's capable of a better performance than that. Unless he made a silly mistake he was no danger of getting KO'd.
Canelo wasn't great either but he did exactly what he need to do to secure the victory.

Originally posted by NC Uppercut View PostI don’t care who you are rooting for, but let’s at least be honest....worst case senario that was a Draw between Nelo and Danny. I tried to patiently watch and score the rounds. I’m not an official judge, obviously, but that was a 6-6 fight.
Let’s discuss without all the negative comments and emotions.
116-112 Canelo.
