      Great performance by BJS!

      No way will Oscar want Canelo to fight him instead of GGG after seeing that.

      Saunders and GGG are the 2 best MWs in the world, imo. I'm really looking forward to seeing them fight for all 4 titles here in the UK!

        Saunders looked sensational against Lemieux. To me that was as impressive as the Golovkin beat down of Lemieux. Total domination. I'd say he's right up there with Golovkin, Canelo and Jacobs.

          Roy Jones said that because of styles Jacobs would be the most likely guy to beat Saunders over Golovkin and Canelo.

No doubt Lemeiux is a limited fighter and a little overrated but I didn't realize how big Saunders is! I see GGG taking the fight against Saunders but I don't see Canelo/Oscar or Jacobs taking that fight. One big difference between Lemeiux & GGG is the GGG has a great Jab plus he's knows how to cut off the ring! Which is something David has know idea how to do!
            DL looked terrible but Bjs looked good and Yes He was Big.

              BJS vs Jacobs would be a great fight. I haven't heard what RJJ had to say about the style match-up, but maybe he isn't taking into account that BJS has a great chin and can brawl when he needs to. And he has needed to in the past, because his fitness level was very low for some of his early fights.

                He said because of Jacobs fast feet and hand speed he is the most likely to beat BJS out of the three. That would be a very interesting fight. Canelo would have the hardest time out of the three according to Roy. There was no body attack by Lemieux. All three of these guys would have a body attack so BJS wouldn't get off as easy. The one thing that impressed me was Saunders kept up his energy level really well. That could change if someone could get to his body. Kudos to Saunders for a great performance.

                  he could give Canelo a fight with the movement but still loses. GGG would walk him down and have no respect for his power.

                    Saunders put on a Master class against Lemieux. Lemieux looked inept again BJS. Very impressive performance by Saunders. However Canelo or Golovkin will not be “scared off” by anything Saunders did in this fight.

                      The thing about Saunders is who has the foot speed and back and forth movement as fast as his to catch him??? Cutting off the ring on him is far easier said than done. He could possibly beat the elite. He is no longer just the weakest champ that is keeping a title warm for the next guy. Saunders vs GGG, Charlo, Jacobs, Canelo, etc., is going to be interesting.
