Comments Thread For: Hearn: Saunders Has Never Boxed In Ring This Big; Canelo Had No Problem With It

[Oregonian]

Bjs got me kinda interested in this fight. Canelo got cement fight and doesn't know how to use his jab to close the distance and isn't exactly a seek and destroy fighter so hes not gonna take a shot to land one. I got canelo via robbery and his fangirls will say bjs just ran

What will your sentiment be when Canelo KO’s BJS or beats him down to a clear cut UD?
Will you say BJS was just hype and that Canelo needs to step up?

Billy Joe moves, but he fights too. Amazes me that people think that's a bad thing?

Most people are casuals. They believe Gatti was an ATG while Floyd is “boring”, even though Floyd tore him apart.
So, when BJS gets on his bike, expect to hear boos, yet the same idiots will tell you SRL is on their list of their top 5 GOAT, even though SRL “ran” in his biggest fights including his rematch with Duran.

Hahaha what a troll. Saunders is getting fūcked up and you better be a man (or woman) and show yourself here after the fight so everybody can shīt on you.

Saunders is being highly underestimated. He stands a "decent" chance at winning and by no means do I see this being an easy night for Canelo.

The thing is if BJS runs then he wouldn't get a decision, so am expecting him to stay in the pocket.

It would be ironic if Saunders stays in the pocket after demanding a bigger ring.

By Keith Idec - ARLINGTON, Texas - As soon as Billy Joe Saunders set foot inside the boxing ring where he's training at his hotel near AT&T Stadium, he immediately complained to Eddie Hearn. That ring is 18 feet-by-18 feet inside the ropes, entirely too small for Saunders' liking. There was no way, Saunders informed his promoter, that he would box arguably the best fighter, pound-for-pound, in the sport in a ring that size Saturday night.

Billy Joe Saunders got the ring size he wanted and Canelo is confident that it won’t make a difference. I say good for both of them and may the best man win.

I think it’s legit if Canelo does that, especially after giving Saunders the bigger ring he wanted.

So, I’m just going to call it right now.

Saunders will outbox canelo. He will have moments that will question his heart, but I frimly believe Saunders will win atleast 7 rounds.

BUT, the judges, like always, will be in Saul canelo Alvarez pocket! No way is Eddie letting canelo take a L. poor Hearn really thought AJ was the biggest superstar, he then went to a canelo show and realised Joshua was just a large shark in a small lake, Eddie needs canelo especially with leaving sky sports. DAZN ain’t got the reach of sky sports.

people need to wake up and understand that Eddie promotes himself off fighters. And people are too blind and ****** to see it. It’s the Hearn show. That’s why under every CA logo he has matchroom underneath. Attaching his name to boxers to further his own celebrity status. It’s a damn shame.

if only he was this impartial when we got

chisora v Usyk, because Eddie promoted both then but made clear he wants Del Boy to win! But now he can’t back Saunders because he promotes both?

wake up people.

People already with their built in excuses. BJS will run for 12 rounds, and cry that it was a robbery.

Then everyone that filled out their scorecards 2 weeks ago will also be crying robbery.

Well said. Eddie is a self promoter. He hasn't built one star from scratch. The London 2012 Olympics made AJ not Hearn.
