    BJS will categorically not go to 155 so I doubt it'll happen.

    Terrible choice for Canelo anyway, Bill doesn't have a big following even in England, and has a very real chance of winning.

    Saunders is ready to make a lot of money at 155

    Just gotta scratch out GGs name of the $5million check and put Saunders name on it.

    Smart business decisions by everyone involved

    Saunders is all wrong for Canelo.

    He will frustrate the fu*k out of him for 12 straight rounds. Canelo lacks 3 things that will make this fight a nightmare for him: foot speed, ability to cut off the ring and range. This plays right into Saunder's hands. Saunders has quick hands, quick feet and is slippery than eel. He will dance around Canelo.

    However, I don't think Saunders can make 155. He tends to get fat-ish after matches and has had weight issues in the past.

    Is this one of the HUUUUGE money making matches that El Pollo's fans predicted after his genius "business decision " to avoid GGG?

    I bet it happens at 160 or at the lowest 158. Personally I think Saunders would jump at the opportunity.

    I'm going to put this match up at 55/45 in favor of BJS.

    I hope it happens. BJs may win every round but will most likely get an MD nod

    I think 156-157 would be fair.

    Canelo continuing to make a name in Europe and especially the UK where boxing is getting even more popular.

    Good on Canelo for smart business decisions.

    Hopefully GGG fights someone of note and not another EuroBum or USBum.

    Would prefer GGG next but if they can't come to terms this would be a decent s**** I favor Alvarez who has fast hands and is a skilled counter puncher. Footwork probably allows Billy Joe to last the distance but get outboxed 8-4 by Canelo

    Unfortunately for Canelo, Saunders is also a skilled counter puncher with fast hands and superior footwork. Canelo gets a boxing lesson.:deal
