Canelo fights at a much more safety first/sedate pace which would either force Jacobs to be more assertive or get blamed for being too negative.


Jacobs would rip Canelo a new one.

Jacobs was forced to fight a constant pressure fighter who gave him precious few breaks in which to gather himself and pick his shots. Sure, in the exchanges Jacobs was bound to look good in some of them, such is the nature of a fight with many exchanges. Canelo would sit back at that "sedate" pace and allow Jacobs to impose his superior size. Jacobs power is underrated, and we all know Canelo can be rocked.

Jacobs by TKO.
