Just announced by GBP

Yes good fight

Pleased they didn't go down the Lemeiux route

Wow! I'm surprised and very happy!

I will have to get DAZN now I think. If Hearn is giving Wilder and Fury better offers then I am not mad at him anymore.

LOL!!

Excellent fight.

Alvarez is on a mission to cement his legacy and fair play to him too.

Excellent fight, good stuff.

Legitimate challenge for canelo, respect

LOL!!

I's being serious though. I was annoyed with the guy for going the Povetkin route.

I know, that's what gave me the chuckle. You were spot on!

Very good fight, should be entertaining. I was worried what bullsh!t will Oscar announce (you will be shocked), but this is fight that boxing needs. Danny earned big payday and earned it hard way (Sulecki and Derevyanchenko was big risk and low reward IMO). Canelo has a lot to prove and this is chance to do that. Hopefully Golovkin will get some good fight too.

canelo fighting the best is par 4 da course

They should also put Jaime Munguia to undercard to make this card even more stacked. Also wondering why Golden Boy Boxing dont have some heavyweights in stable. Their undercard is always filled with small guys

they focus on the hispanic market it seems

Yeah, it's been one of my gripes with GBP. Lack of big men.

Im so glad this fight is taking place. Was getting worried GBP would keep the lineal title hostage. Cant see how anyone would complain about this choice. Jacobs proved to be at GGG's level some might argue he even deserved the win.

Jacobs with big height/reach advantage. This better not be Bullshvt!

Yup, in he isn't there already he's very close to the all-time Mexican top 10. Definitely higher than finito who people adore with that weird I'm going to overrate a strawweight to prove I care about them syndrome.

Jacobs can talk and help sell the fight. Also hes american. I think hes got a good chance at winning and actually getting the decision. It wouldnt be bad for business as a rematch could be part of the DAZN deal for Canelo and do good numbers. I think judges will be extra careful about scoring this one right.

Id really like to see a round robin type of era with G, Andrade, Jacobs, Canelo, the Charlos, Hurd, Munguia, Sergyi, Sanders even Lemieux! We can have a golden era if the promoters dont screw it up!

Canelo by robbery

Of course! It would just be great if GBP had more balanced cards. That's all!

Great news, should be a cracker. Would love Jacobs to pull off the victory! Andrade vs the winner late in 2019 for all four belts at MW? Who knows.

It would probably be the last Canelo fight i watch if it happens.
