The fighters and trainers ain't the only people that's gonna watch the fight and form an opinion though. The fans are what makes the fight buzz. Not the trainers and fighters, even though their included in the group as well.

Nobody will ever convince me that Canelo getting the benefit of the doubt in all these close fights, ain't a factor in people picking him to win. :manny: So we just gon agree to disagree on that because when Jacobs fukking sneezed on GGG, nikkas were saying he'd wash Canelo.
Now nikkas see he gotta KO dude in order to win and now it's Canelo is such a beast. :ohhh:

I can see Jacobs either out hustling Canelo to a controversial decision loss or Canelo just happening to keep hurting Jacobs enough to bank rounds and win a decision. I don't see a stoppage happening unless its some Baldomier type of shot that just ends shyt off rip.

Fight has no buzz tho.

It definitely felt like Spence vs Garcia was bigger.
I think most people are forming their opinion based on Jacobs last fight. Where he looked wild and very easy to hit. Even in here you have people saying Danny isn't the same. But I think he has a tendency to fight to the level of his competion. That's why he looked his best vs little g and clearly beat him imo. I'm expecting to see Danny at his best and I think canelo is too. Realistically this can go either way. But I still think the best version of canelo is better than the best version of Danny.

With all do respect.....

I can't take anybody's opinion too serious if they have so much hate and bias in their heart that they always have to put in the extra effort to type out little g, when they could type ggg. :manny:

so yeah, we'll just see what happens this weekend. hopefully the buzz picks up by then.

I type like 90 words per minute. So believe me.....it's no extra effort at all. :mjgrin:



But you're right. We will see. There's not much chatter because there's really no bad blood. This is the kind of fight that sells itself. Even this thread is only 3 pages and we're die hards. I think everybody knows this is a must watch fight. I expect the arena atmosphere to be wild.

Yeah this is a 50-50 fight to me my only concern is all the running around Danny has had to do for this fight. Mayweather always alluded to this in regards to his opponents it's different when you have to fight a guy like that it's 3x the media more running around than you have ever had to do in your career and on top of that you in there with the top guy :wow:

nikkas talking about no buzz for this fight and Danny will tell you himself he has NEVER had to do promo work like this shyt different when you in there with a legit star.

but hey some nikka who makes songs about ggg and draws pics of him every day says there no buzz for this so what do i know :manny:



danny has never had to put the foundation stuff on hold for a fight, that should tell you right there the magnitude of it....I haven't said much about this because ya know my connection w the camp but yeah that's my only worry aside from that I just hope we get a good fight I like both guys.

Yea I already know you're directly connected with dude. But I think he'll rise to the occasion. I do notice that Danny has been talking a lot. Like he's trying to get in canelo's head. But canelo isn't falling for it. He just keeps a straight face and always gives Danny praise. Like he knows what Danny is trying to do. I think that's one main difference. Canelo been in this position many times before. The mind games aren't gonna work on him. This huge spectacle is what canelo is used to. But I still think it's gonna be a great fight. I just don't wanna see an early KO or either dude get slumped badly. If there's a KO, I want it to be a KO that's earned through adversity.

Scooter n him been going ham conditioning wise Canelo better be on point all night stamina wise because they ready for a hard 12.

Danny ain't even got the payday yet and clearing a bunch of bills for kids in this physical therapy spot in Jersey :wow: boxing media won't report shyt about it either :francis: bet if he was catching a charge or some shyt they would be all over it though :pacspit:

See that's real shyt. If I accomplish my vision and get that level of money I would be going straight to the source and sharing with the people directly. I'd never let a cac be a middle man for a me. You already know they're gonna take whatever they can on the sly. Go straight to the people.

Yeah man some inspiring shyt :wow: I ain't got it to give like that but I do what I can with the foundation man. I tell dude all the time he needs to put out press releases or something but that ain't really him, can't be mad at that. He a Nipsey type of dude, years from now we will hear stories about all the people he helped. :wow:

I need to watch some promotional content to get hype. I'm not as excited as I should be for this.

How Daniel Jacobs can upset the odds and beat Canelo Alvarez

Canelo vs Jacobs: Daniel Jacobs’ keys to victory
40
In a mouth-watering middleweight unification fight against Canelo Alvarez, how can the “Miracle Man” defy the odds?

In a feat not accomplished since Floyd Mayweather in 2013, Daniel Jacobs (35-2, 29 KOs) steps into the ring on Saturday night against Saul “Canelo” Alvarez (51-1-2, 35 KOs) looking to secure a historic win.


With the WBC, WBA (Super) and IBF middleweight world championship belts on the line, the T-Mobile Arena hosts the standout fight of the year so far, with a sellout crowd expected on this Cinco de Mayo weekend.

“The Miracle Man” is a 5/2 (+250) underdog coming into this fight, however, deploying certain tactics will give Jacobs the biggest chance of causing a seismic shake-up of the 160-pound division.

Canelo continues building his legacy by facing Jacobs[/paste:font]
Preview: Canelo vs Jacobs
Speed of footwork, controlling the distance
If Jacobs can deploy quick footwork in and out of the pocket, the IBF champion will gain successes in the inside which could frustrate Canelo. Alvarez is likely to target the body early, looking to reap the rewards in the later rounds against a fading Jacobs, however, if Jacobs can follow the instructions of his corner in a controlled opening to the fight, he may well force Alvarez into making mistakes.

Golovkin set the blueprint in showing how to pressure Canelo with a controlling jab. A stiff jab from the bigger man could see Canelo retreating to the ropes similar to the first fight against GGG; picking the right shots at the right times then becomes paramount for Jacobs.

Jacobs is a good boxer-mover, showing he can carry power throughout the fight. This fight is likely to replicate a chess match early on, with Canelo underestimating the technical ability of Jacobs to his detriment.

Head movement
If Alvarez becomes frustrated early on in the fight, an all-out-war approach may be deployed by the 28-year-old, head-hunting Jacobs in an attempt to test that questionable chin. It’s crucial for “DJ” not to engage, sticking to a detailed gameplan of precise, timed attacks.

“Box and move” has become a cliché tactic in the biggest fights, but Jacobs has to rely on his head movement and subsequent footwork around the ring to avoid being pinned down by one of Canelo’s onslaughts. GGG tried to walk through the attacks of the Mexican, and despite showing off his whiskers, scoring points would have been noted by the judges.

Canelo is likely to try and negate Jacob’s height advantage by mixing up attacks to the head and body. If these are anticipated well, Jacobs can get success in counter-attacks, using his footwork and head movement to move away from the pressured attacks, much like he did in his controversial loss to Golovkin.

Timed aggression
It’s no secret how hard it will be for Jacobs to land a decision in Las Vegas. Simply edging rounds may not be enough to convince the judges that he is engaging in the cleaner, most effective work, so periods of aggression from the underdog may prove crucial.

These came later in the rounds for Golovkin against Canelo, which enabled the Kazakh to steal many debated segments. Fading in the final minutes of rounds my allow Jacobs to turn up the heat approaching the bell, with flurries of attacks proving notable enough to get the nod. It will likely prove to be a case of fine lines once again if this fight goes to the judges; hopefully, they can arrive on a fair representation of the fight.

While what he writes isn’t stupid I think he thinks too much about Jacobs’ boxing ability. He can be a nice boxer if he wants but not very mobile, not a natural mover. Lara was a better pure boxer than Jacobs and.Canelo (a green version) beat him close. Some people still think Lara won that but either way... it was a close, debatable fight. I can’t really see Jacobs boxing Canelo’s ass off. I view Jacobs more as a balanced boxer-puncher who can do everything well but not exceptionally rather than a boxer-mover.

Also I know Canelo was even greener back then but if anything the Mayweather fight should be used as a blueprint how to beat him not the GGG one especially if they are talking about Jacobs having to stick and move.

Jacobs is a very good fighter but I think Canelo got this and it will be more convincing than many would think.

He should talk alpt..he went through some real shyt and there kuch to bring up. He's a survivor and the truth is..Canelo should have 3 losses but doesnt because of 117-111 and wild shyt like that. Anyone would be concerned about that except prime Roy, Hagler, Floyd, or Robinson because they can beat anybody at their best.
