Canelo Alvarez vs. Billy Joe Saunders.

:roll:
Jr is a puncher, Saunders is not.

 

Both are boxer-punchers who prefer to work from mid-range firing in combination. Neither is a big hitter at MW. Neither is a giant hitter. Both have average speed but very nice punch selection and placement. Both have iffy stamina and see a reduction in their overall mobility and nimble footwork after theiron gas tank runs low. Both have good chins and show flashes of defensive slickness, but are inconsistent with it.

 

Think you would be wise to listen to me and cst on this one.
This has Saunders UD splattered all over it.

 

The faster footed fighter wins. Bjs knows how to close a fight down. Canelo would try to be aggressive and be jabbed to mercy.

 

Both are gypsies? :think

 

Is this Saunders at 160 or will GBP's and Canelo want Saunders to drain himself down to 155? :think

 

Nothing like revisionist history

First of all JCCJr was waaay bigger, AND was losing on the every judges scorecard before he managed to trap Lee in a corner and cause a stoppage while Lee was still on his feet, no where near 'Ktfo'..,

 

BJS has above average speed, BJS has a clear hand and foot speed advantage over canelo

 

Good match up, very slight edge to Canelo. It would look like Canelo-Trout without the knockdown. They are nearly mirror images of each other.

 

Yes, but not a huge one. I wouldn't say BJS is like a middleweight GRJ or anything. Eubank was actually faster of hand; BJS had the superior technique and ring generalship (especially in the first half)

...besides, Canelo flashes decent enough speed in combination at times.

 

canelo would make absolutely easy work of saunders.

saunders is the typical british level fighter.
