HIGHLIGHTS | Canelo Alvarez vs. Daniel Jacobs

the champion is Canelo Alvarez he is 28 years old Daniel Jacobs is 32 Jacobs is the taller man a full six feet tall Canelo only five foot nine Bela also very figure eight but Jacobs coming in at 164 the way in and well over a hundred and seventy three maybe up around 180 in the 180s right now since he weighed in at 170 three point six at eight o'clock this morning Jacobs also has the reach advantage Jacobs low has also found his rhythm in this fight hasn't been able to land too much but again this is what it is at the highest level good chap there by Canelo Alvarez yes it was stabbing jab to Jacobs body and another one that's Rob's Jacobs back got some off balance good jab again these are scoring shots it is something when you watch Canelo Alvarez at times good body shot their wicked hook to the body of Jacobs that he is able to de box and just make a man miss just actually traditionally do you know the defensive boxing stance he's defensively responsible his punches are always tight and crisp that is very difficult to deal with [Applause] great combination there by Jacobs answering as Canelo went for the hook again good straight jab by both when Finella was able to connect he drives the entire body of his opponent back Jacobs doing the smart thing right there is holding on I'm you know I rarely see Sergio to the head I rarely see a guy naturally right-handed Orthodox turned southpaw and then have great success it seems like you know a gimmick most often I wear Lisi a guy why oh that's beautiful going back and forth do you see that often well I would do it just to give my opponent a different look but I wouldn't really fight off that southpaw stance too long good work to the body they're going in with the hook digging in and now Jacobs finding a rhythm Cannella block that right hand but it's still effective I'm telling you Daniel Jacobs even though you block yourself he asked that brute strength in that brute power you still feel it and yet a lead hook from Canelo which is extremely dangerous Canelo tries to go up top change his eye level that hits him on the hip again I wonder if that's going to lead to only less movement from Danny Jenkins later in the fight you get that hip whacked on all night good clean right hand they'll just barely miss with a big right hook excuse me right uppercut good head movement again by Alvarez the champion in fine form moving cold and landing he has his hands full [Applause] those hurt and if you could come around and get your opponent to bite you can turn it into a left foot that's exactly what Cannell is trying to do Jacobs trying to stay active slightly discourage sérgio from just touching him with the jab because Canelo is moving his head so beautifully right in front of him weight to the jabs make him miss occasionally explode and he's winning these rounds that hooked us to Canelo Alvarez on the top see right there Daniel Jacobs turned southpaw and he missed that punch that's the one that he caught me with he dropped me with that punch in between those shots he turns top on you don't even know it and the power punch comes from a left-handed angle Canelo is putting rounds in the bank do you agree with that I've got a 5 rounds to 1 in favor of Canelo Alvarez I should say three of these rounds when I score after it goes you know Jason Jacobs now has him on the run and that's the thing where you're not a natural left-hander it's the defense that you're gonna be falling behind with you can punch on that angle but defensively that's where you're gonna be in danger [Applause] Daniel Jacobs corner is up trainer on de rozier said okay we need a refocus leanest ad on the jab and dig down to the body Jacobs staying close now that right hand was blocked trying to the poppy now the combination bit of a flurry from Danny Jacobs [Applause] snaps his head back again but Jake to do something and he might open himself up as well like I said earlier he has to get respect in order to beat this line in front of them but you do not want to mix it up with Canelo in the inside boom straight right hand by Canelo now to the body but this is Jacob's only chance he's losing rounds at least we believe he's losing rounds so we have to stand there he must do something different he said he learned about dealing with these mega events nine years ago when he was on a Floyd Mayweather undercard Mayweather Mosley that was against Jose Coto he was there he said he looked around he was distracted he knew immediately whoa whoa I got a focus that was nine years ago he's had lots of practice and you can see how calm he is Wow big shock like Jacobs snaps the head back by Canelo he doesn't look hurt but that's certainly landed Canelo the type of guy that's not going to show you he's hurt he's too experienced but that was a big shot landed by Jacobs on pot there's that kind of detention that's the best shot of the night from Jacobs no question and I believe he did it in that Orthodox stance now back to jabbing moving Jacobs back hit him with a hook popped him with the Hall now they exchanged let's see if they let it fly [Applause] sir Jim at what point if you are Daniel Jacobs do you just let it fly and say alright I gotta go I think we're seeing flushes that right now he there's a little changing in his Jacobs bravado right now he's standing a little bit in there he's mixing it up he's punching Canelo against the ropes that's around here right hands to the body of the head Canelo fight him up the ropes with hard hooks and when he does that Bryant it's shades of Canelo golovkin one final seconds what's left Daniel Jacobs touches gloves he brought what he could but Canelo Alvarez waves to the crowd in what looked like just an outstanding performance in a title defense ladies and gentlemen after 12 rounds of middleweight action we go to the scorecards the winner will be the unified WBA WBC and IBF champion Dave Moretti and Steve Weisfeld both have it 115-113 Clinton Feldman scores it 116 to 112 all three scores go to the winner by unanimous decision namitha caballos de guadalajara jalisco many go now the unified middleweight tracking of the so Canelo [Applause] [Music] as you guys were saying two of the judges headed seven five one had at eight four that's how it broke down but it is Canelo Alvarez who picks up another belt and stays the middleweight champion of the world interesting though Sergio as he was saying a few of those rounds could be close you

Wow, Dazn is pretty dope to have their highlights up for their big fight in the same night. Then again, it's smart knowing most people will youtube it in the morning, so makes sense they get the views instead of re-posters.

DAZN making good highlight videos. Remembering those shitty videos from hbo. Nice fight though.

Good fight. Some of my casual friends were left disappointed and said that it wasn’t a great fight, but hey that’s what happens when you have two exceptionally good fighters in the ring together; no way one will absolutely dominate the other. Props to Canelo for getting the clear (but competitive) win and probs to Jacob for making it a competitive fight and showing why he’s at the highest level.

Who does Canelo fight next? Andrade is fighting late June so that may be too soon to get him booked for a unifying match in September.

The shot at 5:15 aka in Round 9 from Jacobs, how on earth does that have 0 effect on Canelo its nuts. Don't forget at this stage Jacobs is closer to 180lbs going into this fight in the end. Crazy.
