    When the fight was stopped I said I knew BJS was hurt in the last round but to quit! At the time I didn't know his eye was damaged, it was the right thing to do. I wanted and thought BJS would lose but I haven't enjoyed a Canelo fight that much since Golovkin 2.

    Hey, at least he didn't get outboxed by glass jawed George Groves, that Callum Smith one punch brutally KTFO. And he certainly wasn't mauled by glass jawed J-Rock. Like both of your heroes were. Be quiet James. You're in no position to gloat. It took the pound for pound number 1 fighter in the sport to beat Saunders. And that match was anything but one sided. Let that sink in.

    Canelo used to throw a lot of 4 punch combos with at least one shot going to the body. These days lots of single shots and 2 punch combos. I agree it works very well for him. He puts a lot more power into his shots these days.

    Now you see why. The man is a brilliant boxer, and he looked excellent up until that freak injury.

    He quit that is worse and he got retired.

    No heart, shouldn't be in the game any more.

    Another Kell Brook in the making

    His corner pulled him out. That's not quitting.

    However, he put up a far better fight than big ass Callum did, who looked like a little girl shelling up along the ropes, letting puny Canelo tee off on him.

    Like I said, it still took the P4P best fighter in the sport to beat him in a match he was more than holding his own in.

    Everyone you support is trash. You have **** taste. Deal with it.

    I thought Canelo would win, I like many many other predicted a Canelo win.


    It was a very interesting fight for 8 rounds, I enjoyed it, I thought BJS had moments, made it very competitive and Canelo threw a shot that ultimately ended the fight.

    I am not understanding the hatred and bitterness towards BJS, people got what they wanted, BJS was beaten lost his 0 and Canelo won and now moves on.

    This need to see BJS humiliated or embarrassed or even go blind is rather sick in my humble opinion.

    He got beat, he congratulated Canelo and his team, what else is/was needed?

    And into the bargain, Chisora is now £8,500 lighter in the pocket after having bet on Saunders.

    That man simply cannot catch a break. :lol:
