Lara didn't dominate Canelo... draw was probably fair. I think BJS has the talent and if he'd spent the last 5 years honing that talent by fighting top quality opponents instead of blowing up to 200Lbs between mediocre performances against C listers, he'd have a very good chance. Fighters develop by fighting other good fighters and BJS for all his natural ability has failed to do what he needs to to prepare him for this kinda challenge.
I wouldn't say Canelo's a more naturally gifted boxer, but he has become one of the best fighters in the world by facing elite or high level opposition over and over. BJS most definitely hasn't.
Canelo is leagues better than he was in the Lara fight.
****** to look at that fight to predict this one.
Is it really I cant see any pure boxer with power on his record since mayweather or lara and canalo struggled getting into range in both fights,resorting to nothing but body punches against lara to land anything at all
canelo can't close the distance good and pin a fighter like what he'd have to do against a mayweather however he is one of the best counter punchers in the game but will he be able to counter Saunders? That remains to be seen
Let's not forget how good khan did, this ain't no static puncher this is an elite pure boxer with decent power
