    Seems like an excuse to pull out of the fight. BJS has seemed nervous and characteristically uncomfortable since this fight was announced.

    As much as I dislike Canelo, i have to side with him here. Saunders and his pikey team need to get on with it.
    Either fight and get on with it or come back to UK and do my ****ing drive.

    I don't think so. Canelo is astronomically higher, and his win against Smith is better than anything Saunders has done at 168.

    He's terrified of getting in the ring with Canelo. That much is clear. Using his Daddy to cry about the ring size and threaten to pull out over it is incredibly lame lol. It's honestly hilarious. But I think Canelo needs to teach this dude a lesson with his fists.

    BJS has a chance to make history by fighting "a great" and instead will prefer to go home smh.

    Saunders is looking for a way out because it’s a 20 ft ring.

    His supporters are nowhere to be seen atm. But I'm sure they'll find a way to rationalize all this if this ends up happening.

    As has already been said, ring size wasn't in the contract so it's up for negotiation. If Saunders is willing to take a financial hit in order to crash the event then he actually has a much stronger hand than his B-side status would suggest. Saunders is wise to engage in brinkmanship as he will need every stylistic and psychological advantage he can get against the cash cow who is widely believed to have the officials in his back pocket. Most of the people who have a problem with what Saunders is doing want him to get knocked out. If he has a chance of even getting a draw on the cards he needs to be able to stick and move, which means he needs a bigger ring to be most effective. If Saunders can't get a 22 ft ring, he should walk rather than sell his belt. The organisers of the event won't want to refund 70,000 Mexicans so there is a good chance they'll budge.

    Ring size wasn’t in the contract? I cannot believe that’s true.
