POLL: Who here thinks Jacobs won? go on the record and tell us why...

[Papirico52]

Jacobs dictated the pace. Canelo wanted an inside fight trading in the pocket. Danny wanted a boxing chess match and Canelo obliged. Meaning DJ was ring general. Also Dannys defense was just as great as Canelo.. but since its not as flashy it never got the same love. Dodging punches with hands down like Whitaker looks more pleasing to the eye then simply blocking the same punches with your hands up.. even though its the same result = blocked punches.

all of this mess would be avoided if judges utilized 9-9 even rounds instead of always having to pick a winner. In the first 4-5 rounds its seems the logic ppl used was "well nothing much happened... so canelo won this round" lol.. that is the ONLY way you give him the early rounds. if i HAD to pick a winner in the early dull rounds it is JACOBS because like i already said he dictated pace and maintained control of the tempo all night.

I had Jacobs clearly winning at the final bell but expected fully to see him get robbed (history prepared us for that). I didn't feel TOO bad because DJ was aware ahead of time he will never win on pts. but he won it for me.

This, exactly what I saw.

yup Jacobs defense was great alright. Canelo couldn't land nothing he blocked punches like this with his hands that was CGI that made Jacobs face look like that when he got hit



And compubox is just lying too Canelo didn't land almost 200 punches at double the connect rate then Jacobs.

[Richard Hamilton]

First to Jacobs. Next 5 to Canelo. Next 4 to Jacobs. Last 2 to Canelo.

I only saw a YouTube highlight vid and it seemed like Jacobs was taking fight to Nell and pummeling him

[rudy]

Most of Canelo's punches were blocked, he got rocked, Danny was boxing him pretty well, I don't know if I saw another fight but i gave canelo 3 rounds tops.

Call me names if u want.

you just joined in last year if you want to watch a fight look mayweather vs castillo 1

I had Canelo winning but NSB has become a really sh-tty place whenever there is a close fight between people of different races or nationalities. Anytime someone is unhappy with your score they accuse you of scoring based on race or nationality or hate.

Happened with this fight, Kov -ward, Wilder-Fury, GGG-Canelo, etc. Why cant't people disagree on the scores simply as boxing fans?

Man I hear what you're saying - but I feel like 95% of the time in a fight there is one winner. The other 5%, 1/20 times, it is a 7-5, 6-6, could go either way type fight.

Not sure how anyone could find 7 rounds for Ward or Canelo (especially fight 1) in those fights. So when you see that almost all the people who did share the same race as those guys, I mean it just makes it clear that people let their personal bias affect their score.

Wilder-Fury, I don't see how anyone saw Fury putting on a boxing clinic in the first 6 rounds. I thought they were pretty even. Last 6 rounds Fury started to relax a little and out-boxed Wilder basically the entire time, but he also got dropped twice. I could see a slight Fury win there or a 6-6 fight as I had it.

That one was legitimately close, especially since the guy getting outboxed had two KD rounds. The other 2 fights you mentioned were straightforward 8-4 wins that it is hard to see how anyone could see differently.

Man from reading these posts it is really sad to see a lot of people who claim to be boxing fans, have no idea how to score fights.

Jacobs range of rounds won seems pretty clearly to be in the 4-6 range. Canelo in the 6-8 range. Canelo dictated the fight, Danny was on the back foot the entire fight and did not look comfortable or in control at all. He always looked like he was losing, especially after the first few rounds - every time I looked at him in the later rounds he looked like a man who was surviving. To take rounds as the defensive boxer/mover you have to be a lot more clinical than Danny was.

That being said he fought well at times, and there were quite a few close rounds. But he was not really doing enough to really take those rounds consistently.

There was only one guy who could have won the fight and that was Canelo. To find 6 rounds for Danny you have to really be looking for rounds for him. I think it's possible but as the defensive fighter you have to be clinical to really get rounds. Danny wasn't. To find 9 rounds for Canelo you have to be really reaching. This was a pretty clear Canelo win, 7-5 or 8-4. Danny showed up but he didn't show really close to enough to win.
