jacobs too chinny to beat GGG

I think this is a small bet jacobs or no bet. Too much juice to lay on ggg who for the most part did not look against kell even with breaking his eye orbit early on. Kell really gave counterpunchers hope. GGG can get hit and jacobs after hydrating will be much heavier and does have knock out power. Love ggg and have been a fan way before he got his props but this is just way to much juice to lay.

"the bunker"
not a Jacobs fan but I thought he did more than enough...golovkin spent long stretches following Jacobs around without moving his hands....Jacobs had control of the ring,i thought ,and threw so many more combinations......

golovkin`s rep and the lure of a canelo mega-money fight tipped the scales,imo.....I was wondering why his corner was telling him to be extremely cautious in the last round of a fight that many thought hinged on the last round(hmmm?)......

.golovkin`s lucky the division is extremely weak and bereft of quick boxers(do a quick boxrec search...his opposition is not exactly legendary.....I think kovalev`s the better fighter at lt heavy)........that wasn`t actually Jacobs's forte but he was a plenty good enough boxer to make golvkin look mostly ineffectual......

a heavy footed canelo will be the perfect foil.....

When I was scouting the fight, Jacobs' pedigree looked pretty good. Good writeup, weasel.

Another reason boxing is so tricky to bet. Big favorites can look too heavy. But u still have to overcome the judges.
