    NSB: Please don't discredit Saunders when he gets KNOCKED OUT and/or dominated.

    This guy went undefeated for years. WBO champion twice over. Made sure that Eubank can never rise beyond where he is.

    He deserves your respect.

    But I would remind you...just last year he was talking retirement.

    Usually when a fighter goes as far as talking retirement their mind is F'd.

    We saw the same thing with McGregor, same thing with Menayothin, same thing with Cotto (before he fought Sadam Ali), same thing with Manny (before he fought Horn).




    Link is below.
    BOXER Billy Joe Saunders has left fans puzzled after hinting of retirement on social media. Saunders is the WBO super-middleweight champion and was believed to be inching closer to a super-fight ag…

    I just had a revelation….

    if some of our forum members love to boast about UFC, YouTubers “showing the example” to how to do it right, etc…. Then y’all can discredit BJS all u want, shouldn’t the default (given the weird following for UFC or YT) be Canelo KO’ng BJS just for our entertainment? Forget whats on paper! Lol

      Saunders has looked utterly pedestrian for years and has not fought a quality opponent since 2017.

        Since Canelo has openly avoided the biggest fight he can make, we will discredit any wide win he has.

        Because if he beats someone wide, they’re clearly worse than that guy who deserves the fight and has arguably beaten Canelo twice.

        But please keep begging everyone to ignore reality.

          Well, but I mean NSB says that the 'eye test' doesn't care about resume, so going by 'eye test' we have to consider the guy up there in the P4P.

          I just don't want flip-flopping after the fight is all. That's what happened with Kovalev and Callum Smith, and it shouldn't happen here.

          I want NSB to give Canelo credit for beating one of the top guys (by the 'eye test') in the divsion.

            Both should get credit for taking this fight, and neither should be discredited regardless of result.

            Not on here though.

              Definately. Billy Joe Saunders is an amazing boxer no doubt about it. He could still go on to fight others and do well.

              Canelo is just a tough nut to crack. You have to knock him out to win. Gennady Golovkin couldn't do it and we know the man has power, BJS isn't known for power so hes done for

                  I never rated him highly. On Canelo's list of wins, it would not be a top 5 win.

                    he's been horrible at 168 where he is a human dough boy. ironically because he is so lazy and has looked so bad this has probably helped him land the canelo fight.
