    Billy Joe Saunders vs. Canelo Alvarez.

    Who wins? Canelo tends to struggle against movers (See his fights against Floyd, Lara and Khan).

    I think canelo would go to billies body

    Competitive fight if in the U.S Billie would get robbed. IN England billie he edges a close decision

    I think billie length and style would be a nightmare for Caneo in general

        This is a really good fight and hard to pick a winner on neutral ground.

        Contrary to popular belief, I don't see these mythical improvements everybody thinks they're seeing after the Mayweather fight. Canelo makes the same mistakes and actually has gotten worse since losing to Mayweather. He just seems to pot shot now. I guess Floyd left some everlasting marks on the kid.

        Saunders would be forced to fight more though I think. Not sure if he can handle the pace he would need to outpoint Canelo.

        I would love to see this one in the UK of all places. I think Canelo's reach in the US is too strong, they need to get him over the pond for something resembling a neutral score. Canelo's people will still have the fix in, but the UK likes to protect their people too so it's even there moreso than in the States.

          canelo tends to struggle against pressure fighters too judging by his last fight

            Probably Canelo. Saunders is good but probably a cut below elite. Nobody would be picking Saunders to win if the Lemieux fight didn't happen. Truth is Lemieux is just not good. At all.

              BJS soundly outboxes him whether he'd get the decision or not is entirely different.

              Bad style match up for Canelo.

                Canelo stops BJS or beats him in a close one. BJS looked like a million bucks but that was against caveman Lemieux who was destroyed in better fashion by GGG and lost to guys like Alcine and Rubio. Not sure why everybody is putting so much stock in that fight. Would like to see BJS sack up and fight Jacobs to give us a clearer idea where's he really at.

                  BJS became a sensation over Lemieux... I called BJS to beat Lemieux when it was first announced...

                  1.) BJS is big
                  2.) If he comes his A game it will be great
                  3.) Southpaw

                  All those factors came into play with circumstances of BJS' opponents and how Lemieux was beat before..

                  I particularly wanted BJS to win because I didn't want Nelo to fight Lemieux since Lil'G fans would cry that Lil'G had already beaten the Canadian and Nelo wouldn't get credit

                    If he can do what Lara did except with less running and more punching done he could win
                    I thought Lara edged Canelo but Im not sure if BJS is as gifted as Lara
