I’m going with the upset

Canelo won't stop Saunders lol. In no way on earth Saunders gonna get ko'd by Canelo. Canelo is way too flated footed and one-dimensional and Saunders isn't a guy who is exchanging a lot with his opponents. Additionally Canelo isn't a big puncher at the weight class. He has solid power and can catch you, he can break you with body shots and finishes to the head but he's not a one shot knockout artist. Knocking out Amir Khan isn't exactly something i would bring up as an argument here. Canelo comes foward in straight lines, BJS will dance around and jab for 12 rounds. The first question is: Will he do enough to make it competitive? If he does then the second question is: Has he a fair chance to get a decision? I do like the matchup for Saunders on paper but i'm not 100% sure if he really brings it. He's more talk no action type of a guy while Canelo is less talk and more action. I think Canelo takes a decision here like 117-111.

 

Inactivity is the biggest worry for BJS.
