A complete list of theater locations is available on the Fathom Events website (<i>theaters and participants are subject to change<\/i>).<\/p>\n<p>Canelo, 28, is a native of <span class=\"xn-location\">Guadalajara, Jalisco, Mexico<\/span> who became the top man in the sport by giving fans the biggest and most entertaining fights. At 154 pounds, Canelo captured several world titles and defeated the likes of Austin &#8220;No Doubt&#8221; Trout, Sugar Shane Mosley, Alfredo &#8220;El Perro&#8221; Angulo, Erislandy &#8220;The American Dream&#8221; Lara and Liam &#8220;Beefy&#8221; Smith. However, Canelo scored his most significant victory yet at 160 pounds, where he defeated Gennady &#8220;GGG&#8221; Golovkin in their highly anticipated rematch in <span class=\"xn-chron\">September 2018<\/span> and established himself as the WBC, WBA, Lineal and Ring Magazine Middleweight World Champion. <\/p>\n<p>In his debut performance, Canelo became a three-division world champion by knocking out <span class=\"xn-person\">Rocky Fielding<\/span> in three rounds to capture the WBA Super Middleweight World Title in <span class=\"xn-chron\">December 2018<\/span>. Canelo will return to middleweight for this fight as he continues to clean out the 160-pound division.<\/p>\n<p>Jacobs, 31, is a native of <span class=\"xn-location\">Brooklyn, New York<\/span> who is widely considered as one of the best middleweights of this era. Jacobs rose up the middleweight rankings to win the WBA Middleweight World Title against <span class=\"xn-person\">Jarrod Fletcher<\/span> in 2014 after being away from the sport for 19 months, due to a form of bone cancer that he courageously overcame. Jacobs made several successful defenses, including a thunderous first-round knockout of <span class=\"xn-person\">Peter Quillin<\/span> the following year. Despite losing to <span class=\"xn-person\">Gennady Golovkin<\/span> in a very close fight in 2017, Jacobs has remained undefeated since his return, defeating former amateur champion and middleweight contender Sergiy Derevyanchenko to capture the IBF Middleweight World Championship. Jacobs will look to capture more middleweight hardware in the biggest fight of his career.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We are proud to partner again with our friends at Golden Boy to bring this unification bout to cinemas nationwide,&#8221; said <span class=\"xn-person\">Ray Nutt<\/span>, Fathom Events CEO. &#8220;Fight fans have loved watching Canelo on big screen, and we expect them to really enjoy this battle with <span class=\"xn-person\">Daniel Jacobs<\/span>.&#8221; <\/p>\n<p>For artwork\/photos related to\u00a0&#8220;<b>Canelo vs. Jacobs<\/b>&#8221; visit the Fathom Events <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/c212.net\/c\/link\/?t=0&amp;l=en&amp;o=2433165-1&amp;h=2740200568&amp;u=https%3A%2F%2Fcorporate.fathomevents.com%2Fpress%2Fpress-kits%2F2019%2Fcanelo-vs-jacobs%2F&amp;a=press+site\" rel=\"nofollow\">press site<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><b><u>About Fathom Events<br \/><\/u><\/b>Fathom Events is the leading event cinema distributor with theater locations in all top 100 DMAs\u00ae (Designated Market Areas) and ranks as one of the largest overall theater content distributors.\u00a0Owned by AMC Entertainment Inc.
