A bit of perspective. The agreed contract was to fight for all titles. IBF has changed to same day weigh in. GGG did not refuel over night and made 160 in the morning of the fight.Jacobs,did not show.
Jacobs came in at 180lb's in the ring,having had almost 40 hours to rehydrate and refuel,GGG had about 12 hours having honoured his side of the contract. It was cheap from Daniels. It makes a HELL of a difference one fighter completely drained and the other ready to go,even so I still gave it GGG by 2 rounds. Even then I never felt GGG was hurt,but Daniels wasbuzzed a few times. GGG simply did what he had to. Canelo will still avoid him.
I feel most people haven't watched a lot of GGG's fights,he's always gotten caght and tagged,he keeps a high guard,and moves his head very little,he just walks you down and closes of your angles with his lateral movement,and makes you fight ina phone booth,he's always illing to accept your hook if he opens up,as he knws his hook is better. That's just the way he's always fought. too many fans just haven't watched enough of his old fights,and thinks he is meant to box like manny marquez or mayweather,when in actual fact he's closer to Winky.(but with more power and a better chin) He'll be fine,he was possibly over confident,and unaware of the closeness of the duel.Bu for me the decision should havenever been in doubt.
