Daniel Jacobs vs. Sergio Mora

[Spicoli]

Broner doesn't look bloated..and he shaved that feral cat off his chin! Wonder if he has a big fight coming up. Did he just call out Ricky Burns?

Why is this place so dead during good fights

[Spicoli]

Not a blitzkrieg from Jacobs so far. Both standing around waiting on a bus here

[Spicoli]

Jacobs lands bigger in 2nd but really not setting anything up. Almost looks too tentative. Mora turning part mma, shoulder blocks and foot stepping. Hope we don't have 12 rounds of this

[Spicoli]

Mora in all kinds of trouble 6th. Legs giving, ankles bending and doing a poor mans Gumby impression. Looks like Jacobs can set up and finish

[Sleepwalker]

Wow, ANOTHER Ali/Frazier documentary?

Guaranteed comments like:

"The was the biggest sports event ever"

"All the top celebrities came: Sinatra..."

"Ali painted Joe Frazier as an Uncle Tom/Gorilla"

World Boxing Association World middleweight champion Daniel Jacobs (32-1, 29 KOs) won a ridiculously easy 7th round knockout win over 2nd tier fighter Sergio “The Latin Snake” Mora (28-5-2, 9 Kos) in the 7th round in their rematch on Friday night at the Santander Arena in Reading, Pennsylvania. Jacobs knocked Mora down five times in the fight with three of the knockdowns coming in round seven.

It was comical at the end with Jacobs dropping the aging 35-year-old Mora repeatedly in the 7th until the referee finally tired of the dreadful mismatch and stopped the fight. The boxing fans were booing the mismatch from the 4th round.They did not like the mismatch, and who came blame them. Jacobs’ management should have known better than than put him back in with Mora after he stopped the aging fighter last year by a 2nd round knockout.

Mora was knocked down by a left hook in the 4th round by Jacobs. Mora was bending over to try and escape the punishment from Jacobs when he was nailed by a left hand that put him down.

In the 5th, Jacobs dropped Mora with a right hand to the shoulder blades. Like in the previous round, Mora was dipping at the waist to try and avoid Jacobs’ punishing shots when he was hit and dropped. If Mora had stood straight up, he wouldn’t have been knocked down, but he kept bending over and making it easy for Jacobs to hit him with chopping power shots.

Mora fell to the canvas twice in the 6th round after slipping after getting staggered by a right hand. The referee could have called it a knockdown because Mora was hurt, but he gave him the benefit of the doubt by choosing not to score knockdowns. The mismatch might have ended in the 6th if the referee had scored the slips as knockdowns, because the fight have become totally one-sided at that point. There was no reason at all to let it continue considering that Mora looked old, weak and feeble in the ring. He clearly didn’t belong in there with Jacobs.

In the 7th, Jacobs knocked Mora down with a right to the head. Moments later, Jacobs sent Mora down for a second time in the round with another big right. Mora barely beat the count at the count of 9. After Mora got back up, Jacobs dropped him for the third and final time with a nice right hand to the head.

Few fans wanted to see a rematch because they realized it would be a mismatch, and sure enough that’s what it was. Hopefully this fight closes the chapter on the Jacobs-Mora fights, because it’s time that these two fighters move and start fighting other people. Mora didn’t rate a rematch, because he hadn’t fought since being stopped in the 2nd round last year. Why Jacobs’ management chose to have him fight Mora a second time is the big question. He didn’t have to, because he clearly beat the 35-year-old Mora last year. Putting the two together again resulted in another mismatch.

WBA president Gilberto Mendoza said that he would order a fight between Gennady Golovkin and Jacobs. The fight is expected to happen later this year.

The first fight was pretty good. I thought commey won but it was close so no arguments from me.

The main event was awful. Jacobs just looked tight and like he was scared or something. He obviously hurt mora with every punch landed but just couldn't get him out of there earlier for some reason. I do agree that this was a step back for him. He really needs to step it up. He has literally been "the next big thing" for about 7 years.

He battled cancer so he had a long layoff. Quillin is his best win. He hasn't beaten anybody else that good.
