    Well you're dead right there,my knowledge is limited and so I asked you ages ago what chance did Liam Smith have as at the time there was a good few saying he'd do well against Canelo,I wish I could find your answer as it mirrored what happened in the fight to a tee,ie straight up n down and tailor made for Canelo,it's for this reason that if you say someone's slick I'll take notice but quite honestly as regards Saunders I can make that judgement by myself,now if he can manage to fight like that for a round or two more then all the better cause anyone who watched Floyd will have noticed how over seven rounds he was untouchable?

    Yeah well you're right there Floyd looked after himself and had the hunger to remain the best whereas Saunders appears to have a lazy side not unlike Tyson Fury,it's so annoying as both those guys could give so much more.

    How the hell is this thread still on the first page? Obvious troll attempt that should have fallen flat.

    Anyone thinking Smith had a chance was totally naïve, granted I trolled a l9ttle right before the match and laid out the only scenario in which Liam could win, and even that was tenuous as hell, lol. Watch the last 6 rounds of Saunders-Eubank, Billy Joe was exhausted and Eubank was coming at him with all that he had, throwing everything at him including the kitchen sink, it was literally a maelstrom and Saunders was still slipping and rolling with almost everything Eubank threw at him.

    While he may not be as slick as Floyd, he is incredibly slick and if he really put his mind to it, committed and didn't coast, I think he could put on a masterclass that equals anything Floyd has done in the past.

    He can't ever put on a master class that equals Floyd beating Chico. That type of **** is rare. But Saunders is a good boxer. My only criticism is that he needs to step up his comp because now he's being known more for his mouth than what he's doing inside the ring.

    Maybe not, that was quite brilliant. But Saunders if pushed might come close.... although doubtful. Saunders needs to be more active in general, he's oo lazy and lacks dedication, but if he could fully get his head into it he has the potential to be at the very least damn good.

    He can box. I like his skill set. He just has to up the ante.
