Man that makes no sense to me. How in the world is he going to have another 168 title chance? He needs to heal at least 6 months be he returns to training. Then he would have to be hopeful for an elimination bout.Comment

I would even add that in most cases, round one is a charity round for BJS. Given after the fact because humans start to question themselves as the fight progresses, look at their scoring and then adjust (give a freebie) because they start to overanalyze.Why is this article trying to make it seem like it was such a close fight but Canelo just got a lucky punch? I only had BJS winning two rounds in this fight. He was outclassed except for rounds 5 and 6. Canelo was catching him with those uppercuts. The end was coming for him either way.Comment

That was a real unlucky break for BJS. (No pun intended) He was on a roll till that uppercut landed. But with the benefit of hindsight, he should have kept it long like Mark Tibbs wanted, instead of bobbing around in front of Canelo looking for counters. It looked to me like he got a little greedy and forgot how dangerous Canelo was at that range. The uppercut certainly reminded him, but unfortunately for BJS, it also effectively ended the fight right there and then.Comment

I really wish his eye didn't go. I wanted to know who was the better boxer and who'd get judges decisionComment

I wouldn’t say the tide was turning, Billy wasnt actually having much success between rounds 2-4. He started getting into it more between 4-7.
Saunders three best rounds were the ones before the eighth when he got caught. One shot changed the fight completely. Even the first half of the 8th round was pretty close until he got caught.
Not saying he would’ve gone onto win, Canelo looked like he could move through gears but BJS was certainly getting a bit better as the fight went on, doesn’t really matter though, It’s a 12 round fight and he got caught with a good shot and it ended.
You Posted many predictions all last week & even Bet $$ that Billy Joe Saunders would beat Canelo Saturday night
Now You on here with your soft words analysis of the Fight
Like Canelo said to Andrade "Get fk outta here"
LolololololComment

The problem was he had virtually no power to keep Canelo off him. He landed pretty flush which was evident on Canelos seldom marked face but there was no real pop. Canelo has that Floyd effect that he starts figuring you out as the fights grows old.Comment
