    That's not the point the point is he is always heavily favoured by judges in close fights which in relation to this upcoming fight of a guy who is obviously going to try and win on points just isn't on

    if the judges weren't in his pocket he would have lost the golovkin fight and this fight could be the same it's not very fair to bjs

      Canelo is a 'too big to fail' organisation nowadays. Hope BJS pops a spinach can and lays him out.

        That’s a strange theory because not many people are really pound for pound until they have that big win.

        Lopez wasn’t p4p but beat Loma, just one very recent example.

        It’s like the ****** theory that a fighter has never fought any elite opposition so they won’t win. Well there was a time every fighter that become elite had never fought an elite fighter. You don’t just become elite. You have to get your chance to prove it, Saunders hasn’t had his yet, now he has. At the end of the day he’s an undefeated 2 weight world champ and beaten a few solid enough names. Now it’s time to see if he operates at the very top level. There is no evidence to suggest he can or can’t until it happens. I think he can. He more than deserve his chance to prove it. Every elite fighter has to. Except Terence Crawford who is somehow p4p when is best when is Postol.

          True actually. They try deny bjs. But if bjs beats nelo, bjs will get his due credit

              Can Saunders hurt Alvarez? If Saunders came into this fight wanting to survive, I think he could last 12 rounds.

              I think it will be clear after 1-2 rounds how the fight is going to go.

              Saunders does have good movement, and can score points 'Alvarez movement is below par, and he is one paced'.

              Saunders should be ready now, never mind just being in good enough condition 6 weeks out.

                Come on man. We all know how it goes in most fights - especially when you are as good as Canelo - half of the rounds are close enough. When you are the mega A side you can and will get as many of those rounds as you need to get the result. You have a fight where you lose 4-2 in 'clear rounds' and then you get the 'close' rounds 5-1. You win a fight you should have lost.

                That's the point - that picking anyone to actually win an official decision against Canelo is a joke. We all know that. Acting like the official cards are legit in his fights is crazy man. All he is has to do is be competitive in like half of the rounds and he wins lol. And for whatever reason, 'hardcore' fans on here swear all of those cards are legit.
                So when did Canelo win a fight on the cards when he should have lost?

                  The claim is that BJS can't win the fight on the cards.

                  That's why I am asking people to provide examples of when Canelo won a fight on the cards when he should have lost instead.

                    114-114 v Mayweather
                    118-109 v Trout
                    119-109 v Cotto


                    and as for the two fights that you said were "super close and could have gone either way"

                    117-111 v Lara
                    118-110 v Golovkin

                    But yeah, I guess nothing to see here.
