    No I seen him loads, but didn't think he would stand off like this. Suppose its just great movement by Saunders too

    Round 11

    Saunders is pulling some olé moves, keeping just ahead of Lemieux's 1-2 and making him miss. Saunders reaching past Lemieux's arms to tag him with the long right jab. Saunders is playing with fire a bit, letting Lemieux get closer and closer but he still isn't landing anywhere near enough to offset the jabs of Saunders. At the end of the round he finally clips Saunders semi-cleanly with a right hand, but not enough to steal it.

    10-9 Saunders

    110-99 Saunders

    Lol at the crowd going wild as Saunders moved and took the steam off a half-landed Lemieux right.

    Nah both GGG and Canelo are better than DL.

    BJS would have an easier time with Canelo than GGG though IMO.

    Lumeuix finally got through in the last 30 seconds of round 11. Let's see if he can give it all in round 12.

    If I'm generous, that may be the first round that Lumeuix won.

    I predict Saunders best round in the 12th to close it.

    I thought it was a red flag to look for in the sense that I don't know if a guy's really fixed his conditioning till I see it, but it looks like he's patched it up now!

    Saunders' corner tells him "they probably gave him (Lemieux) that one (the eleventh)".

    They DKSAB, man. No pro judge is dumb enough to give Lemieux a round for landing one punch after getting schooled just as badly as he was schooled in the preceding 10 rounds ...right?
