Why Is No One Giving Billy Joe Saunders A Chance ?

[STREET CLEANER]

Saunders has skills but in order to win he is going to have to hit a hard target to hit that counterpunches so well. If he runs he won't win on the scorecards. Jacobs was able to be competitive against Canelo on the right side. It is actually an interesting fight but I am favoring Canelo.

This should be a stinkfest cinco de mayo fight. Not sure how this was decided to be the fight choice for the date. Get Alvarez in there with someone who likes to ****! Cmon!

Because it’s extremely unlikely he’s going to knock Canelo out

and we all know the tale of the cards in a Canelo fight

Saunders may well be able to outbox Canelo, it’s just unlikely the judges will see it that way

He may well outbox Canelo but unless he knocks him smooth out he aint winning. We all know this and the chances of him koing Canelo are just about nill.

[JakeTheBoxer]

Because we're talking about Canelo here, not David fu-cking Lemeiux.

Yes and Canelo struggles with every good fighter.

Remember, after the fight there will be 10 threads how bad Canelo looked like.

[GhostofDempsey]

Maybe because he went the distance with several fighters who GGG KO'd? He's been carefully matched and properly promoted.

I think Saunders could out box him but he won't get the decision. Canelo's chin is too strong to get knocked out.

I think Saunders could out box him but he won't get the decision. Canelo's chin is too strong to get knocked out.

I have a feeling that can happen also

Seems like a lot of folks have already filled in their scorecards and are only waiting for Saturday night to express their outrage.

Saunders does not see the final bell and all those tear stained scorecards will be filed away and never spoken of again.

It has been literally years since Saunders looked impressive in a fight and he hasn't fought anybody good since 2017.

Charles Adamu, Shefat Isufi, Marcelo Esteban Coceres, Martin Murray? Get the hell outta here with that noise. It the same timespan Canelo fought Gennadiy Golovkin, Rocky Fielding, Danny Jacobs, Sergey Kovalev, Callum Smith, and Avni Yildirim.
