Comments Thread For: Saunders: I Know I Have To Be More Clever Versus Canelo

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Billy Joe Saunders is well aware of the type of fighting styles to have previously troubled Saul 'Canelo' Alvarez. On just one occasion did it result in a loss, when a 23-year-old Alvarez was outboxed by an all-time great in Floyd Mayweather Jr. in Sept. 2013. The Mexican superstar also had his hands full in his two-fight set with Gennadiy Golovkin (41-1-1, 35KOs), who obviously fights nothing like England's Saunders (30-0, 14KOs).

I do predict a Canelo win on points, but don't underestimate Saunders. Yes, in some fights he was below par, but I think he'll step up for this one.

Of course, Canelo is no Lemieux or Murray, so Billy will have to pull off his greatest ever performance to get the upset win.

Boxing skills aside just this once, Saunders and the word "clever" will never belong in the same sentence.

Any of you who believe Saunders will pose a problem for Canelo are in for huge disappointment. I predict an early KO by Canelo within the first six rounds. Saunders can run but he can't hide , the level of competition he has been up against does not prepare him for the whupping he is going to receive. That's one of the reasons he can't stop yapping , making excuses about the judges , crying that Eddie Heart doesn't love him. He is scared s---less and knows what he's up against.

Alvarez plods. As much as I appreciate his speed, power, accuracy, combos, defence and chin he doesn’t have quick feet. I think Alvarez will struggle to close the distance if BJS chooses to ‘run’ and imagine he (Canelo) will win a boring decision.

there shouldn’t be any issues , it’s in the contract somewhere.. end of the argument, and if it’s not you’ve no business at this level of boxing ..my guess is Saunders is just trying unsuccessfully to unsettle canelo . The gloves will be next and then he will late to the weigh in or something. Seen it all before ..

I believe Saunders' movement will dictate da first couple of rounds but I see Canelo cutting off da ring, setting up traps with those vicious body shots to Saunders. I don't see where Saunders can hurt Canelo in any way, shape, or form. Saunders would have to box a perfect one here to frustrate Canelo but it'll b da adjustments made in da second half of da fight. Who will make da proper adjustments?
