If you think Saunders was winning or was even in that fight

[HewJohnson]

Should’ve went out on his shield

I had it 6-2 Canelo, but I could see 5-3, and 4-4 wouldn’t have been insane, but I think pretty egregious. It was a matter of time, BJS makes too many mistakes to be in with someone like Canelo, I called the upper cut to end the fight when I saw Canelo timing him on the turn away to his left after he throws a big shot.

I mean, call me a cynic, but 'new' Canelo hits a hell of a lot harder than old Canelo. I don't doubt he is on some super Peds. But probably because of that, the fight wasn't close. He probably outlanded BJS in every round, and he landed the better harder shots in probably every round

Are you ****ing with me right now? It was eight rounds...

People who think Saunders was doing anything with his pitiful feather fisted pawing aren't really boxing fans.

He got pummelled and quit as soon as the going got too tough for him.

Exactly. Someone gets it.

You can win a fight on the back foot. But 9 times out of 10, you are going to lose. Why, because the guy coming forward can load up on his punches, and will hit harder. He is probably also coming forward for a reason - meaning he is probably the better fighter and harder puncher.

BJS was taking big shots every round, from the first round on. Not a close fight at all.

100%. There are some people that think boxing is some sort of light-entertainment where you dance around a ring, flicking out flimsy punches and doing Ali-shuffles. This is what they call 'slick' skills.

Canelo throws almost every punch with bad intentions. He's looking to hurt the other guy because it's a fight and that's how you win. The judges rightly rewarded that. And Saunders having his face broken is the result of those bad intentions.

Yep...you get it man...far too few seem to get it, but it is what it is

Saunders landed nothing of consequence. Easy fight to score.
