wonder how eubank will react if Saunder actually pulls off the upset?

I don't think people are underestimating Saunders, just that some people don't realize how good and versatile Canelo is. Because he is this powerful puncher that usually comes to attack, people either forget or don't realize he's also a very slick defensive fighter himself if he needs/wants to be. He's also very adaptable to any style. I too see this as a total ass whoopin. KO or very dominant UD.

Not saying Saunders sucks and don't belong in there. Just saying Canelo is currently on another level. There's obviously no shame in losing to him, similar to other great fighters of past eras.

No one is on his level. Especially anyone from 160-168.

Agreed, seems BJS is being underestimated here. He can be elusive when he wants. I do see Canelo winning by UD but it would be close IMHO.

This feels like when Fury was fighting Wilder the first time. 99% of people on here were visioning he couldn't punch, now the same 99% are convinced he's a puncher.

BJS is going to give Canelo one hell of a fight in my opinion.

Sanders is gonna quit showing all the signs. He is just a bigger version of Sunny Edwards

yeah because every boxer than boxes on the back foot is basically the same version.

tremendous logic

[kushking]

come on.... Canelo would hit Eubank with everything he threw

Eubank has no weapons to beat Canelo, at least Saunders has movement/skills

Do you honestly think Saunders survives 12 rds with CURRENT Canelo? Current is key, because lately hes truly in his prime. (I'm asking because I'm genuinely thinking of laying down a few k on Canelo by late ko.)

Eubank Jr. has been telling everyone, for about a month, that he has put £10k on Saunders to get KO'd. Last week, during fight week, he said it several times on camera. Yet, the betting slip he posted a few days back, was timestamped after 8 pm on Saturday night. Be clear here, he never said "I am going to bet...", he clearly stated for the last month, "I've put 10 grand on..." The fella is a moron. He said it in an iFL interview on the weekend, and when David Haye asked him what odds, Eubank Jr. stumbled for an answer, because he hadn't placed a bet. What a fookin' eejit. Funny that soon after this interview Eubank Jr. ran off to actually the bet he'd been telling people he made a month prior. Also, why would William Hill give him odds of evens, when they won't give those odds to general customers? Nonsense!

The odds of Canelo winning by ko pay anywhere between +115 to even money, depending on the book. So at least the bet slip is legit(I've seen better odds on Canelo by ko than even, I've been seeing it as +115 ish)
