The 28-year-old Alvarez (51-1-2, 35 KOs) is unbeaten in his last nine fights (9-0-1) since suffering the only blemish on his record to Floyd Mayweather Jr. in September 2013. After two brutal wars with Gennady Golovkin, Alvarez moved up to super middleweight in December and plowed through Rocky Fielding in three rounds to capture the WBA belt and become a three-division world champion.
Meanwhile, Jacobs (35-2, 29 KOs) has rebounded in a big way after he lost the WBA title to Gennady Golovkin in March 2017 — a very narrow decision that many boxing pundits felt the “Miracle Man” won. He’s won three straight bouts, with the highlight of defeating Sergiy Derevyanchenko by split decision in October to win the IBF title. Alvarez vs Jacobs live streaming
