By rvy Go To PostHe's dead, Jim.Check out Barbozas KO in the MMA thread.
great fight, Jacobs did well and made GGG look ordinary.
Not so sure if GGG would destroy Canelo now

I am just glad it didn't end in a draw. N'jikam and Murata were waiting for this decision to be over. Fight should be the 20th May in Tokyo and me and my mate are gonna fly over a fight night in Japan, and some sumo during the day.
By Shanks D Zoro Go To Postgreat fight, Jacobs did well and made GGG look ordinary.This isn't the fight to say that about GGG. Jacobs clearly bigger than him, fighting at over 180 the night of the fight while GGG was 170.

Canelo vs. Chavez Jr. is Canelos first time going up a weight class to fight. He'd most likely fight GGG at a heavier catchweight or the weight class for all of GGG's belts.

By Slizz Go To PostCanelo vs. Chavez Jr. tonight. I can see hype levels here at max capacity.You know Canelo about to destroy that boy.
don't call me out if I'm wrong pls
By DY_nasty Go To Postchavez got rekt
Chavez got a pay check. Shit man, it wasn't even an effort thing dude isn't on a professional boxers level. Let alone Canelo's. I am starting to think they brought in Nacho just to make sure he made weight.
By Apollo Go To PostGGG VS CANELO IS GOING TO BE FIGHT OF THE FUCKING DECADE
Bold statement but yeah I'm fucking hyped, think winner of that is probably crowned p4p.
GGG got the power but Alvarez got the skills. Canelo's dominance though for is just a constant reminder of how good Mayweather was, like the fight is a much bigger W than people give him credit for
They should have already fought, fuck De La Hoya and tbh Jacobs deserves an immediate rematch.
That being said I still think GGG takes Canelo. I think we've seen more from Canelo's overall game than GGG's. GGG has to walk on eggshells every fight so he doesn't scare away potential future fights.
Also Chavez was a literal heavy bag tonight.

I am hoping Jacob faces the winner of GGG vs Canelo
Also I think Canelo takes it. Those years of wars GGG has been in are gonna catch up
By Zeus Ex Machina Go To PostI am hoping Jacob faces the winner of GGG vs CaneloDon't think Canelo wants any of Jacobs who was weighing in north of 180 against GGG the day of the fight

I didn't even know he rehydrated that fast..... man I want that fight even more now.
By Zeus Ex Machina Go To PostI didn't even know he rehydrated that fast….. man I want that fight even more now.He didn't even weigh in the day of the fight like you are supposed to. You have to be within a certain range of the weight class you signed up to fight for and he knew he was way past it. So by doing that he relinquished the possibility of winning GGG's belts. He literally only woulda got a win over GGG that night or lose his belt which he did.

I didn't even know that. Man that puts the Jacobs fight into an entirely different light. Ehh I doubt Canelo would agree to that fight unless strict weight agreements based on the purse were made similar to what they had on the books for Chaves.
Then again Jacobs might just be too big to get down to middleweight. Maybe if it happened at super middleweight
By Kidjr Go To PostDoes it concern anyone that Canelo couldnt knock him out?
Knock him out?
Canelo done made the guy look the worst thing in the history of boxing.
Canelo wanted to destroy him. He did. He punished him for 12 rounds. He stood up inbetween rounds like it was a spar.
I think Canelo could have knocked him out, buy he wanted the kid to take the punishment.
As for GGG. I think he knocks out Canelo. I was unfair on him after the Jacobs fight, but I just think GGG has the most lethal power in the sport.

Yeah I'm not sure he could or why wouldnt he lol, in what world does a boxer NOT knock someone out when/if they can unless he was worrying about killing him which he clearly wasnt.
Everyone is saying GGG but this purely comes down what Canelo's peak power is, if Canelo hits GGG and he just bites his gum and still comes forward GGG will just keep coming, eventually cut off the ring, and finish Canelo.
however if Canelo hits GGG and he respects his power, Canelo wins on points imo.

Canelo hates Chavez. Steve Bunce was worried before the fight that Canelo was maybe not mentally prepared because he was taking selfies with everyone before the fight, not his usual pre fight routine. After the fight, he realised it was because Canelo absolutely knew he would win. Canelo could have maybe knocked him out, but instead he absolutely ruined Chavez.
I don't know how Chavez can ever fight again. People stayed just to boo hm lol
As for GGG, you might be right. Canelo has the power to hurt GGG, but GGG has the power to hurt Canelo.
Will be a great fight.
Watching the Murata vs N'Dam fight.
I should have been there in Tokyo with my mates, but I had to give mine up as work told me I had to be in on this day. :(((

By Zeus Ex Machina Go To PostGotta go Ward by decision. Though I think Kovalev makes it a closer fight
I think ward decision again but a less close of a fight, alot of people thought Kovalev won the first fight.
Ward better win. Lucky the first time and didn't look the Ward I remembered, Kovalev was his first step up in competition since returning. Hopefully the rust is finally shook off.
