    It's okay. I'd rather be called blind than a drug abuser or an alcoholic, even though I have very good vision (both literally and metaphorically).

    This.
    Jacobs kept his composure while Alvarez faded. Then Jacobs started finding his openings.

    Golovkin put Jacobs on the canvas

    Canelo didn’t even hurt him once

    Most observers saw GGG beat Canelo.

    Both times.

    Yeah I actually couldn't believe how well he defended his body and head from those left hooks.

    Andrade doesn't have Jacobs' power but he is a more athletic boxer, with a snappier jab.

    Wrong. It was either the 8th or 9th round I forgot but jacobs barely made it out, canelo was hammering him. Your boy was punching air all night.

    Not sure he hits hard enough or has enough stamina to take a decision but he certainly out boxes them all

    As a big Jacobs fan, you're right.

    If he tightened up his technique and really maximized his size, he'd be an even better power puncher than he is.

    His downfall tonight was similar to Golovkin...he took too long to get going, and he spent too long going backwards vs a smaller man, which creates a bad impression with the judges.

    That, and switching to southpaw was almost as bad Rungvisai sticking to it for who knows what reason. This fight was frustrating to see, as I thought it was winnable for Danny...

    Sky Sports commentary was a joke, just Froch and Coldwell drooling over Canelo like he was delivering some kind of complete shut out until Adam Smith took over a bit with some more balanced commentary in the mid to late rounds then Froch changed his tune

    Usually like Coldwell but he was painful to listen to tonight
