People gave Jacobs way too much credit for competitiveness. He did very well, much better than I expected, but there's no way he won more than 6 rounds. Golovkin clearly had issues but I see people giving Jacobs rounds where Golovkin CLEARLY outlanded him and had the better round.
I don't understand the controversy here at all.

I said before the fight that it would be a close 7-5 fight and that people would ask for a rematch. Exactly what happened. Golovkin is more skilled than Jacobs but Jacobs being almost 2 inches taller, with more reach and weight, played a role. Jacobs was a Super MW that night.

The same people arguing punchstat for Mayweather fights... please try to point to 1 metric that Jacobs dominated that would give him the win. especially when you go round by round.
GGG landed more punches.
GGG landed a KD
GGG did more damage
GGG imposed superior ring generalship
GGG showcased superior defense
all facts.
don't get emotional now. I know it's hard for the children raised by single moms. try to be rational if you can.
