Saul 'Canelo' Alvarez extends his dominance of the middleweight division by defeating Daniel Jacobs in a crucial unification bout
Canelo Alvarez and his manager/trainer Jose"Chepo" Reynoso celebrate after Alvarez's unanimous-decision victory over Daniel Jacobs in their middleweight unification fight at T-Mobile Arena on May 4, 2019 in Las Vegas, Nevada. Alvarez added another title belt to his collection Saturday night by winning rounds early and outboxing Jacobs in their middleweight showdown to take a close but unanimous 12-round decision.
But Alvarez was fast and quick and kept Jacobs off balance with his movement as he won a narrow decision in the same arena where he fought to a draw and a close win over Gennady Golovkin. Alvarez, a 5-1 favorite at fight time, was tested but did enough to win in a fight that had no knockdowns and no serious fouls. Neither fighter ever appeared badly hurt, though Jacobs landed some of the bigger punches in the late rounds."It was a hard shot but I went to the corner and they asked me and I said it was no big deal," Alvarez said. "I continued with the fight.
Canelo Alvarez punches Daniel Jacobs during their middleweight unification fight at T-Mobile Arena on May 04, 2019 in Las Vegas, Nevada.

Neither fighter landed any sustained flurries, but Alvarez had more snap to his punches and landed them with more consistency.
Alvarez had lost only once in his career, dropping a decision five years ago to Floyd Mayweather Jr. in a fight he acknowledged later he was not ready for.
