Comments Thread For: Saunders: I Beat Canelo 7 Days a Week, Twice on Sundays!

[robertzimmerman]

He will most certainly outbox him. Canelo is vastly more skilled.

Saunders' biggest problem is dreadful conditioning, he hits a wall half way through every fight. I'd pick Eubank Jr to beat him convincingly in a rematch.

I think this fight will happen, if/when it does, we'll see Canelo outbox, out-hit and ultimately start to beat him up by the mid rounds.

Canelo isn't as skilled as Billy.

I'm talking footwork, creating angles etc.

Yes, he needs to improve his conditioning.

I can't see Eubank beating him convincingly in a rematch.

We'll have to see.

Andy Lee is not a world class fighter. Any time you get your ass beat by a bum like Chavez JR then that makes you a bigger bum do I don't see BJS win over Andy Lee that spectacular

Of course he's a world class fighter.

If not, what's your criteria?

[robertzimmerman]

I'm starving to see Canelo at MW, draining less, I think he would be a better fighter @160, I can't deny Saunders style ain't good for Canelo, he always struggles against pure boxers, but the logic says that Billy ain't knocking Canelo out, and he ain't gonna be favored by judges.

Yeah, it's going to be interesting to see Canelo at MW. I can't wait either, and I'd love to see what he rehydrated to.

I'd also be worried about the judges too.

It would more than likely be in Texas.

Not getting beat by a bum like Chavez JR

To me, a world class fighter is someone who can hold their own against the best fighters in the division, and who's ranked in the top 10-15.

Andy Lee isn't an elite fighter. But he has to be considered world class. He has to be one of the top 15 MW's in the world.

Actually, Chavez is a good fighter. It's his awful discipline that lets him down.

The only ones that think Eubank would be some great feather in Golovkin's cap are the Golovkin fans.

In reality Eubank hasn't done much either, just like BJS.

You aren't being realistic now. Its noit just GGG fans who think eubsnk would be good fight for GGG. GGG was widely critised for not fighting eubsank after all the negotiations as was eubank

Many think GGG hasn't done much as well, yet is expected to beat nelo. So why does bjs have to have done much to beat nelo? Not that nelo has done much himself rather than get gift decisions

So to your eyes BJS compares with GGG?

Not necessarily to ggg, but why not to Nero.
I just wish people would stop with this belief nelo has done amazing things. Yes there's few recognisable names on Melos resume but hardly convincing.

Brooks resume didn't compare to Khan yet would beat khan. Historically nelo might be remembered more than bjs because of his resume but that won't help nelo when bjs is in opposite corner and nelo still has those cement blocks in his boots

You're a Pacquiao fan so I'm not surprised you don't get it. This isn't just about resume, it's about the process that a boxer must go through to get better.

They have to test themselves against tough competition, return to the gym to make adjustments, then test themselves against tough competition again. It also helps if they become familiar with what it's like to face different styles.

In the area of boxing development Canelo is far ahead of Billy Joe Saunders. It's like he's about to finish university while BJS just graduated high school.
