Anyone got Jacobs beating Alvarez?

[ykdadamaja]

Speak now or forever hold your peace.... Jacobs may be able to win this one. But Alvarez's power may be a factor, but when Jacobs fought GGG GGG's power didn't hinder him. So, who is to say who hits harder?

It may be a mistake to judge pre-cancer Jacobs and his ko defeat to Dimitry Pirog vs the Jacobs who rocked Peter Quillin's world a few short years back.

I'm rooting for Jacobs on this one. Solid UD win. May see a coupla knockdowns too.

Jacobs the moral victor by pts but losing a split decision.

[powerpuncher]

I think it will be like the GGG fights. Jacobs deserves the nod but Canelo gets the decision.

[SlimTrae]

Agreed. Alvarez by popularity. Jacobs holds is own, though.

Id like to see Jacobs do well, but I think he may be on the slide, and Canelo do3s keep getting better. My money is on Mexican tacos.

Jacobs for me, but I do not trust the judges. Jacobs should be able to stick and move well enough and land his share of power punches along the way. Canelo will flurry and try to edge rounds his usual way. I really want to see Canelo on his arse, but he is slick and has a great chin. I hate to say it but it has echoes of a Celtic James Toney.

James Toney was far more skilled and talented.

[Spicoli]

As much as I hate admitting it, I really keep getting the feel that Canelo takes it. I just think he'll start well enough but again get touched too much along the way and won't do well with the left hook to head and body of Canelo. I'd love to see Danny crack that big orange speckled melon off those long 1-2s and leave him looking at the lights but I can't get away from thinking the spring coiled nerves and slight tendency to get caught in the mix catches up to him. May change mind tomorrow .

I find they way the gits on dazn talk about this fight.... Or more like talk beyond this fight, maybe they are just trying to build up alvarez a lot but I would think they would also they would be trying to make the fight out to be a really close fight.... All of them are giving off the impression that alvarez is going to have no problems here, makes me think they kniw something we don't :S...

I think jacobs has a good chance, I'm sticking with an alvarez late KO by body punches, jacobs seems to tire later on and he's going to have to move a lot to take advantage of alvarezs weakness, so I think by the seco d half of the fight he'll be tired and alvarez will capatulize and finish him off. It's a very goo match up though

Comprehension. Chin. Canelo has a great chin, he seldom gets hurt. Otherwise agreed, Toney was the far superior fighter. Canelo is canny, but does not have Toney level ring IQ.

Particularly, defensive wise, whereas, JT later years relied on countering for offense, Jacobs is more aggressive like the younger Toney. That is where Canelo takes advantage.
And I don't think either is in decline. Just a great matchup, IMO for 2 guys who aren't past it....just yet!

[Ron Swanson]

The Jacobs that beat GGG beats Canelo easy, but we’ve only seen that guy once.

[Batman]

I'm thinking a Canelo UD on points, hope I'm wrong and I might change my mind tomorrow

[Batman]

UD on points?? yeah I've had a fucking drink,

[Primo Carnera]

Jacobs could win the fight, but he won’t get the decision. And that’s it.
