    Jacobs hasn't been much of a puncher against top level opposition. He also has a hell of a hard time landing power shots on guys who slip well.

    We already know what is gonna happen if Canelo can't make weight. He'll miss by quite a bit, and not tell Jacobs, so Jacobs drains all the way down.

    Well, we are on a free internet, he can say whatever.

    Is he going to put his money on it? or.. you know... maybe in another year/life/universe....

    When talking is free, people talk too much.

    Moving up and down in weight hurt Tommy Hearns career but his chin wass never as good as Canelo`s anyway and neither was Roy`s, he got floored and hurt by Dell Valle while Canelo would have rode the shot taking the sting out of it, unless moving up and down in weight effects CAnelo`s reflexes who should still be able to ride sots better than Jones did.

    This is the same Dwyer who thought that a shot to shinola De Gale would school Eubank Jr.

    Ignoring completely him going life and death with Truax twice. And ignoring that Eubank Jr has obliterated fighters at that level in his career.

    Canelo going down 8lbs is no way comparable to RJJ going from HW down to LHW. Also RJJ was a pure reflexes and athletic based fighter whilst Canelo has high level boxing skills and high level boxing brain. Canelo is the kind of fighter who will perform far better in older age and dealing with changes in weight than most.

    I can see why he fancies the upset but he is really reaching in favouring Jacobs for those reasons.

    Jacobs will still be cutting more weight than Canelo for this fight.

    It's not the worst logic we've seen from Dwyer.

    Dwyer desperately trying to claw back his daughter's university fund which he floated on Stiverne by KO at the weekend.

    GGG schooled Canelo 9-3 and didn't get the nod... so Jacobs for sure ain't getting it.

    In the first fight canelo won at least 4 rounds at worst. The second fight was damn close so where you getting that 9-3

    Dwyer is right. Clamelo is getting pieced the **** up and tucked Into bed by daddy Jacobs.
