The cards seemed right to me, assuming both 115/113 judges gave Canelo the 12th, Jacobs could have earned a draw winning the 12th. He didn’t do that.
FYI it was a draw at worst

man fugg that go get your eyes checked or rewatch the fight soberI 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.Comment

Judges score clean punching, effective aggressiveness, ring generalship, and defense. Does anyone honestly believe that Jacobs bested Canelo in any of those factors during the whole fight?
Some people here appear to think that the boxer who lands the best shot wins the round, and it's just not the case. Canelo took Jacobs to school for most of the fight. Sure, Danny eked out three or four rounds, but this was a fight with a very clear result and the judges got it right.Comment

Agreed!
In fact when I saw the official cards I retract my statement. The two 115/113 cards gave the 12th to Jacobs, which seems ingenuous, like they were just making their cards seem less biased. Canelo won fairly, no doubt in my mind, but I think the cards would have been similar even if he had not.Comment
