    Finally boxed himself into a corner and must now get brutally knocked out for our enjoyment. Great stuff

    Genuine question, does anyone see any way BJS can beat Canelo? For me Canelo’s next 2 fights are very straight forward and don’t really test him, maybe a controversial opinion but that’s how I feel.

    Idoubt it will be @ 160 Canelo would need a few buckets of Clenbutrol to make that

    Why would it be at 160? Neither of them have a title there.

    BJS will pull out, he doesn't want the Canelo fight.

    Is it me or does BJS just like to be associated with fighting the big names without actually fighting them? Five years of calling out GGG and Alvarez, never shared a ring with anyone of their level but keeps mentioning them whilst taking easy fights, keeping the WBO belts and keeping his 0 almost in a way to make him seem like he's elite level.

    BJS happy with the cash out. I dont see it being competitive but stylistically he should at least pose more than Smith.

    Billy's got almost no chance in this, he ain't outboxing Canelo and he doesn't hit hard enough to deter CA from doing what he likes. Upside is if you dislike BJS you can enjoy watching him lose (while getting paid a fortune for it), this fight might have meant something 3 or 4 years ago, pointless exercise now.

    Well finally, lets see now if he has any real intention of fighting Canelo, only way I can see him winning is if he quickly joins the kronk and somehow finds out he can actually punch like Tommy hearns!!

    Why not take this when he was in his prime, would've been more money involved with crowds, more interest, instead now this basically feels like a cash out of a career than actually never really got started
