He's not slick. But he does have a good chin and a size advantage on BJS. He could get inside and earn a workman like decision, similar to Chavez Jr over Rubio. :good
Billy joe would easily win the early rounds. His footwork would well be to much for canelo. But canelo would definately stop billy joe when he tires.
It will be a close fight at full 160 but in the US, Canelo wins comfortably on the cards around 9-3 / 9-3 / 11-1(the judge whose last name ends with -ez). In the UK, more of a draw/SD/MD type of fight.
They are both slick, but BJS works more. Canelo usually has more solid shots. It would be a good fight really.
Be competitive BJS would be competitive against any MW in the world, in the Lee fight showed he has put his stamina issues to bed and seem's to be living the life now. I think Saunders could edge this 7 - 5
Exactly as I see it don't think either man can KO the other one unless they land something perfect, BJS will win on workrate.
Maybe Billy Joe's twin imposter, "Saunderz" loses by late-round TKO to Canelo. Saunders, however, wins a close Unanimous Decision against Canelo, even after being forced to drain down to 155. His size advantage, reach advantage, defence, movement, and timing on his straight shots make him all wrong for Canelo, IMO. N.B: Canelo's practice of draining middleweights down to 155 is not a new thing for him; prior to this, he was draining Jr middleweights down to 150.
Because he doesn't have the nerve to fight a world-level middleweight at the 160 division limit. Everyone here except El Chicano seems readily able to accept this plain and simple fact.
