im not sure what's going on with BJS at the moment but after seeing his fights against Eubank and Lee his talent isn't in question. His movement,defence and timing is impeccable and out of all the middleweights I reckon GGG would have to use his noggin to cut him off in the ring like he does normally,that said I reckon Saunders is gonna want Canelo first so first of all does Canelo take on Saunders for his belt and secondly does he beat Saunders? Personally I don't think Canelo will face Saunders,nothing to do with him being scared as I don't think Canelo fears anyone but style wise Saunders is all wrong for him.
Canelo was nearly out boxed by Khan and Saunders struggled to beat the brawler in Eubanks and Lee. Even fight in my opinion. Canelo still can't adjust after 50 fights.
It's very possible Canelo attains the WBO mandatory ranking, if he does this fight is very possible for Cinco de mayo weekend! I think it's a good fight, a fight Canelo is fully capable of winning.
I think he can adjust, it's just speed is a little harder for him to get his timing down on. But BJS isnt particularly a fast fighter, so I think Canelo will have more problems with his movement and boxing skills than anything, just as BJS will struggle with Canelo's counter punching ability. Very good fight!
Eh, we haven't seen him adjust and even with Khan's speed he showed basic problems. The same problems he showed vs Mayweather and Lara (despite winning the fight with Lara). It's kind of shocking that someone with his experience still has these basic problems. I think he needs a better trainer at this point. I agree that it is a good fight though. Intriguing. I'd watch it.
I agree and I think Canelo would be better at 160 anyway,could be that Saunders wins the first half as usually does but Canelo has that power to finish with one punch if he worked things out?
Well you haven't, but I have. His timing when fighting against speedier fighters, is off at first. Speed is what problems him the most, we seen 3rd 4th round on in the Khan fight, he was starting to time him and counter punch him a little easier than the first couple of rounds. That's called making an adjustment my friend. What you don't think he got lucky with that knockout, do you? Lol
Khans boxing ability has never been in question,his speed and range always outshines his opponents until he he gets drunk on his own success and walks onto something big,at the time I think the commentators and even the fans were thinking how is Canelo gonna deal with twelve rounds of this?but in reality I think Canelo knew what would happen and just bided his time to set him up. Saunders is a different story though,check out his fights,though he may step off in the second half he never drops his guard.
