    Only happening because Billy isnt looking like the same guy who schooled Lemieux.
    Canelo/GBP has learned when fruits are ripe to pick from mayweather who was a master at it. Everybody is just a hair past being truly dangerous. All the killers are only being fought after they have looked just vulnerable enough to ensure Canelo doesn't get completely dominated(and if he doesn't get dominated he wins on points)


    I had him winning the trout fight and GGG rematch.
    And I think there is a good chance he has been clean(or at least not overtly roided to the gills like the few years before) since he got caught for clenbuterol, his body hasn't looked the same

    So don't dare call me a Canelo hater, but he is picking his opponents just at the right time and there is always an advamtage

    This would suggest he’s been avoiding Saunders which is absolute twaddle.Saunders has looked bad before against lesser opponents.Saunders is a great opponent and should be in his prime.

    They are already piling up, and in the most hilarious fashion ever. Did I just read some idiot claim Saunders isn’t looking as good as he did fighting Lemieux?.... :lol:

    saunders is trash, has been for a while, no way does he belong in a ring with a top 3 p4p. if it gets made, i will forever trash canelo, after i lol at him leaving saunders in a twisted bundle on the canvas.

    Saunders will outbox him and not get the decision.

    Canelo in a very easy fight. Probable late ko but Saunders may choose to run all night and survive 12.

    Post fight every excuse under the sun will be made by the usual suspects.

    i said that in the second rd of the fight. thats when i knew saunders was done as a threat to any top guy, in any division. he would not avoid the ko vs canelo, no matter how much he ran.

    BJS just does not have the stamina to fight hard all 12 rounds, same as Canelo actually. So expect an awful fight if this ever happens and 7-5 8-4 type of win for Canelo of course.

    BJS vs Andrade was even worse matchup. He should rematch Eubank Jr honestly first, at least a winnable fight for him even now.
