Alvarez will get the decision whether he deserves to or not. That being said, I do expect he'll be able to legitimately beat Jacobs. Though I expect a close contest. I can't see Jacobs beating him by the kinda margin he'd need to beat him by to actually get the win.

I actually wouldn't be too shocked if Canelo stopped him. It's not what I'm leaning toward, but it wouldn't really shock me.

Abel Sanchez said it's hard to beat Canelo because he gets 'spotted' three points. Man speaks his mind. And the truth.

As of this moment we've only seen one man beat him by decision he had to win all 12 rounds to win on 2 of the 3 cards, and he was the biggest star in Boxing...so yeah

If Canelo had actually won a round or two that night they probably would've given it to him.

Criminal judging with Canelo

it's a great fight. for the unified and ring & lineal middleweight title. (wbo doesn't count for much).
jacobs looked very good v golovkin. canelo looks to be at his peak, and as mentioned is hard to win a decision against and hard to hurt.
but this is boxing. anything can happen. and jacobs will certainly know that he has to dominate to get the win. it should be a great match!
i would have to favour canelo by decision.

More chance of me going to the moon than Jacobs getting a decision-

It's not going to decision, Jacobs is getting knocked out.

how'd you do that?

Maybe- my point is though that nobody will get a fair decision with Alvarez- I reckon Jacobs will hear the final bell though

On the iPhones it’s amongst the smilies/ pictures you can add

Abel Sanchez said it best when he said that fighting Canelo in Vegas is spotting him three rounds.

Ricky my friend I think Jacobs will go the distance. But a premature stoppage is a possibility

Jacobs got hit way too much vs Sulecki. Granted, his approach will be different, i think Canelo brings too much for DJ.

We will see soon enough.
I'm actually excited about this one

Canelo looking really sharp...I still don't think he'll stop Jacobs though

I think The Miracle Man Stops Canelo between round's 9/10/11 no judge's will be required Golden Boy

You have to be anointed by God to get a points decision against Canelo in Vegas
