    Yes! This is great news.

    1) GGG/Canelo will happen next year. Just watch.
    2) The fraud that is Billy Joe can no longer take time out and then face idiots.

    Here's hoping that Canelo KO's him and BJS fades into obscurity.

    Me too - assuming Saunders can get back to something like good form it has the makings of a really good fight, like you, it's one I see as much more competitive than GGG vs either, but I still can't approve of the #1 challenger being bypassed. Enforcing mandos is to my mind one of the few productive purposes that the sanctioning orgs serve and no matter how many times it's been done before, or what fights it makes possible it's still one more case where the little guy gets screwed in favour of the money. Sh1t, Saunders vs Canelo would happen anyway as long as Canelo wanted it, cept now Avtandil can't even get a step aside.

    canelo is not even a big puncher at 154 lol only stopped glass chinend kirkland and khan

    canelo failed to stop hatton and rhodes hatton even said brook hit much harder

    canelo at 160 would even have much more weaker power

    canelo was teeing on kirkland and finally knocking him out after 50 plus clean shots to the head and ishida knocked kirkland inside round 1

    It's all about the
    How is Hatton saying Brook hits harder than Canelo relevant to anything? All fights are different and if Canelo catches you flush with a shot you don't see it could be lights out, homie.

    Wbo
    We belittle others
    It will be funny when cameltoe wins and GGG says give me my belt cameltoe or fight me
    Unification style for big drama show
    And canelhoe simply says here you go big bro
    Wonder if the wbo will still be telling the world leave him alone and I wonder if they keep him ranked relevant in two of their divisions lol

    You go of that by him knocking out khan and kirkland?

    Khan was sparked even by a 135 iber kirkland has a weak chin

    Also if im honest i was really surprised as well how canelo could not even really hurt cotto bad in any part of the fight his power is shocking for someone his size

    Cotto was hurt more against judah and clottey

    Canelo has very respectable power but he is in no way a big puncher he is a big puncher if he is fighting the likes of khan and kirland

    :risas3: AHhh... the evil mind of O$car the Dodger plotting & scheming to keep Canelo out of the ring against GGG.

    :bandit: BOGUS contract offers delaying & avoiding coming to an agreement with GGG/K2.

    Offering a possible fight with Chavez jr. as a "Strawman'... after saying Canelo is NOT a "Middleweight".

    Then getting Canelo a mandatory championship bout with BJS even though Canelo isn't listed as a contender.

    :eyebrow2: Anyone besides Canelo NUT HUGGERS...still expect a Canelo/GGG fight in Sept. 2017 ?

    I'm going off that based on me knowing all fights are different. All it takes is one shot in Boxing and you'd be looking at the lights, and besides, Canelo is not feather fisted by any stretch of the imagination, so it's definitely not a far fetched prediction.

    Ultimately it boils down to how good BJS chin is. He took Lee's shots, but Canelo is going to be bigger and stronger at 160, and the most important thing is he's going to be hitting harder. I wouldn't be surprised to see Canelo stop BJS. He a sharp counterpuncher.

    BJ in my opinion has fought much bigger punchers lee and eubank for me are solid 160 fighters and hit harder then canelo.

    Their is no way canelo would be able to stop billy canelo can't even stop or hurt weaker less fighters in the past.

    saunders i no 154 iber or khan or kirkland he is a big 160 fighter

    We'll just wait and see. It's always the shots you don't see that put you on ***** street. BJS has never fought a guy who can throw his punches the way Canelo can, he's easily one of the best counter/combination punchers in the game. Anyways if no chavez next, bet your dollar BJS is going to get his chance.
