    I think BJS is a stylistic terror for Canelo, as proved in the Lara and Trout fights.

    But "pretenders", really?

    Saunders hasn't fought anybody of their calibre yet. How he would handle Canelo's surgical counters or GGG's calculated pressure is a complete unknown.

    Have u been hiding under a rock for the last few years.

    GGG has disappeared more times than the invisible man at the mention of Billy Joe.

    Canelo's entire team including BHOP suddenly "no speaka English" when the WBO king rocks up.

    Who will step up and take the test?

    Who wants to be the best?

    He had no need to fight GGG, making him wait just gave him time to improve and GGG just get older and easier.

    GGG is a typical bully, when Billy Joe didn't want the fight GGG was Tarzan.

    As soon as Billy wanted the fight GGG put lip stick and a skirt on and went by the name of Jane.

    We've yet to see if he can take a punch like either of these two.

    Both GGG and Clenelo would beat BJS

    Clenelo would land on BJS and he has his unbias judges. Do you see BJS winning 10 rounds out of 12 to get given a 114-113 win on the cards then? You must be on crack if you think BJS is going to be that dominant against a fighter as good as Clenelo.

    "Saunders's jab didn't KO Canelo, therefore Canelo won".

    Clenelo would legitimately beat BJS in a boxing match. He is all around a better fighter and lands harder punches. BJS rarely puts in full on hard shots. That would be the difference for me.

    He wouldn’t even need his judges to call it the win.
