    Canelo signing a two fight deal with match room, yildrim and then bjs

    Finally there are no more excuses on dates finances etc, let's see if bjs has been all talk or he truly wants to fight Canelo.

    If for some reason this doesn't happen in may it will only be because bjs has bottled it. Personally I think he wants it and maybe just maybe we will see what saunders can do when faced with this level of opposition!!

    He has always said we will only see how good he is when he fights the very best.

    It doesn't get any harder than Canelo. We will either see a massacre or a all time great british performance.

    Saunders will find a way out of the fight, even if he signs for it. He doesn’t want anything to do with being walked down, by Canelo.

    I think it is clear at this stage that Saunders doesnt want to test himself against the elite.

    He ducked out of the GGG for years when it was there for him to sign. Even admitting he was going to wait until GGG got old, because GGG was the best out there.

    He talks about his 0 as if it is some kind of baby, that he doesnt want to risk.

    He has got to the point where he is more concerned about keeping his 0, than he is about making big money in the biggest fights.

    I think he cashes out in May and gets a few mil and a hiding then retires

    I remember when people used to try and blame Warren for the big fights not happening, yet since signing with Matchroom his 2 fights in 2 years have been against some Argentinian no one had ever heard of and a wheeled out of retirement Martin Murray. A talented fighter no doubt, but at 32 and 12 years as a pro, he clearly just doesn't fancy it. If he did it would have already happened by now, so I won't hold by breath on him fighting Canelo.

    BJS dont do qualifiers or group stages, cup finals only is when he shows up, he has the machines number for sure.

    No doubt, BJS is a phenomenal boxer. But, when you look at his unbeaten record, he hasn't really fought many world-class, top 10 fights. Not saying he's dodged them but his record/inactivity isn't anywhere near Canelo's. I think Canelo wins. Would like to see BJS vs. Callum Smith first, then maybe Canelo, but if he loses vs. Smith, it means the fight vs. Canelo won't happen.

    Why is there no doubt he is a phenomenal boxer, who has he proved this against? Nobody as you said

    There was a great interview the other week where Billy was trashing Andrade as ducking real challenges and saying his record is weak, Umar then asked who Billy's best wins are, was funny to watch him squirm, I think he said Andy Lee and Lemieux and then said there's loads of em really I can't think. His record is one of the weakest ever for an unbeaten world champion

    Khan blocked BJS on twitter just because BJS said Brook would beat him lol!. That's how fragilr and cowardly Khan is.. and shows that he hates even the thought of losing to kell. It terrifies him!

    Until he actually faces an elite boxer in his prime and at least 2 others around that level he's nothing more than a hypejob. A green Jnr, an almost finished Lee and a jaded and faded Lemmy are his 3 biggest wins.
