    What are Canelo's keys to victory in your mind? Should he target the body early, or should he head hunt? What does Canelo have to do to beat Billy, or is that an impossible outcome as you see it?

    Body, because the head will be out of range, although with Saunders, the body might be as well. He's going to have to be all out aggression like he was in the GGG rematch if he wants to erase all doubts and win decisively on the scorecards. Which he will regardless.

    billy joe has looked bad versus lesser opponents but I'd assume he'd take this sight serious enough.
    is the ring going to be proper size?
    is the ref going to be agressive and warn billy joe for holding
    is canelo going to be good enough to stop the holding.

    Since clenelo will be near impossible to beat via decision, saunders will have to stop him, a highly unlikely scenario.

    Hopefully he goes for it if he gets behind and doesn't just try not to get KO'd like Smith.
    By now the corruption is well known and everyone should just make it a shootout if they want to win, but most still try to operate under the sport's rules with the delusion that they can win fair and square. And I guess they'd rather have some kind of 'moral victory' even if they outpoint Canelo and lose, rather than possibly get KO'd.

    This is where Golovkin was stubborn in the second fight and should have outright brawled, really. That's why a third Golovkin fight is still the most interesting, because maybe he does come out in kill or be killed mode, after being screwed twice over.

    With one judge ruling a draw in a lopsided fight.

    No

    No, he does not need. He cannot win this. BJS looks great against domestic fighters but here is true superstar. Who is Saunder's best win ? Eubank jr or Lemieux ?

    Which KO did Saunders get in his last fight? He went the distance against 38 years old Martin Murray.

    It does not matter what Saunders does because Canelo is the better boxer of the two and the better fighter and puncher. The difference in resume is like night and day. Forget about the judges I don’t expect them to be needed. If they are it will mean Saunders has taken a terrible beating.

    Probably, but it likely just involves mocking someone who is mentally disabled or something.

    Everyone conveniently forgetting how meh Saunders has looked at 168. That said, if anyone young not undersized good boxer comes to fight Canelo they have a decent chance of winning. None of Canelo's opponents since GGG have come to win
