    He looked like utter ****. Same as Lemieux did in his last fight against Stevens. I was expecting to see two faded fighters tonight. Lemieux looked about the same, but Saunders looked better than ever. So yeah, that trainer turned his career around.

    No he is not going to appeal to many boxing fans. He doesnt even go for the KO when he has a man hurt, its all about boxing and getting the win.

    He is now in line for a shot at GGG or Canelo.

    Damn Saunders you ***** you've made thousands eat crow and bow down to you. Wow. And I think I went from hating him to becoming a fan in one fight.

    Ill have to wait to analyse how BJS looked tonight, but IF G gets past Canelo, which I dont think he will, I would consider picking BJS against him when/if they fight. Then again I will contemplate picking BJS against Canelo too though.

    I just am excited about middleweight.

    Remember the schooling fat bloated Khan put on the ginger toad before his chin let him down? BJS 2.0 will paddle his ass something terrible.

    Saunders looked really really really bad vs Akavov and that's why so why the odds of the fight were so close.
    I was on a round by round and probably 30% of the people thought it was a robbery he looked like he was sick or something.

    I was very impressed with Saunders performance. I still would've smacked his son lol, but I was impressed. He did the same thing to Eubank Jr.

    While Saunders clearly won, and won wide, it wasn't a shutout.

    BJ did absolutely nothing but run in rd 12.

    I scored it 118-110.

    Can live with 119 -109 or 117-111 as well.

    Lemieux couldn't cut off the ring.

    It was a pretty one-sided affair, opening the door for a bout with one of the big three in the division.


    Noticed he's now calling out a GGG who's on the decline and nearing 36, but he turned down a career high purse for that bout a year or two ago.

    I hope it happens. Saunders is the new FMJ in his boxing style and talk. I'd be nice to see his smug face get caved in by a GGG hook.

    GGG already easily beat Canelo, and its going to be no different a second time. However it makes more money than a fight against BJS. Alot more.
