Like Khan - Saunders possesses a superior intellect. He will amuse the hospital staff with his brilliance the week after the fight

Unfortunately for BJS Canelo has a better boxing brain.

if BJS had been active and fighting actual top tier opponents then I’d believe he has a good chance. However, he’s been inactive and living off the Lemieux fight.

Canelo wins this.

This is wishful thinking on Saunders' behalf.

Like it or not, Canelo is elite. He came up short against Mayweather, but he has improved himself substantially since then and -- crucially -- Saunders is not Mayweather.

I think Canelo overwhelms Saunders before the 9th.

Bj s might do better than many believe.

I think BJS is thinking about things the right way & I expected him to think about things the right way. The big question will be can his body & mind converge to do what needs to be done on fight night to secure a W.

Hell, it is even money he will be busted for PEDs before the fight or right after.

That seems so incredibly long ago. 2017? 2018? I had forgotten about it. Maybe because I picked Lemieux and am trying to forget it...


Saunders gets owned. I will go against popular opinion, at least for now, and say he is on his feet at the final bell. But we are talking wide UD for Alvarez.

He's a bum whose horribly out of his depth against Canelo.

Look at this recent list of opponents, all garbage. He's lucky to have got this fight and will get taken apart. That is if he makes it to the fight, he's probably taking every steroid he can get his hands on right now.

It's not impossible because we've seen it done 4 times. Might be tough for an inactive fighter like Saunders though.
