Would Alvarez be able to cut the ring off on BJS?
I think he could cut the ring off for periods of time but he wouldnt chase billy and billy would run . Would likely be super boring . With canelo winning a decision or catching billy late if he tries
At 168 BJS wouldn’t be as fluid as he did at 160. Canelo always knows how to cut the ring off and dig to the body early on in fights. Which always helps him later on in fights.
if BJS is in good shape, this should be an interest fight. still, canelo will win a comfortable decision no matter what happens in the fight obviously.
forgot to add that it will probably be as boring as it gets, it'll be an ugly fight.
Canelo is much smarter than BJS ever was and Saunders hasn't fought anybody with a pulse since 2017.
Canelo will be in better shape. He'll use his smarts to cut off the ring and he'll punish BJS every time he catches him until he stops him.
yup straight schooled lara thats why he won the fight.Yeap, you are right. He schooled Lara and the judges almost gave the fight to the Cuban. I think one of judge turned in his card the day before and called sick.
Canelo fought Erislandy Lara, a southpaw who's just as slick as Saunders is, if not more, and was able to catch him pretty regularly.
Saunders doesn't give you much, but Alvarez will find his moments.
No he didn't, he caught arms and thin air regularly...
First off, the physical match-up isn't what most of you think.
While BJS is 2 inches taller, the difference in reach is only half an inch.
Canelo will actually be the faster guy, both in footspeed and hand speed.
It's bad news for Saunders and I am sorry most of you can't see it.
Out of GGG, Canelo, and Jacobs I think BJS's best chance is actually against Golovkin because of the styles.
That said, I think G probably beats him as well.
Would BJS come to him, though? That's not his game and it would be dumb to fight that way.
He has stood in the middle of the ring in the majority of his big fights (Lee, Eubank Jr, Monroe Jr). It depends on how much he fears Canelo's punches i guess
Canelo needs to let billy joe saunders come to him so he can counterpunch... Saunders throws his hooks pretty wide and Nelo is an excellent counterpuncher... if Canelo decides to chase saunders it'll be way more difficult for him to land.
