    Which middleweight today could beat Billy Joe Saunders?

    I think he will win his next fight, but Canelo? Golovkin?

      I think Golovkin's pressure might get to him. Not sure he stops Saunders, but possibly by decision.

      I think Canelo beats him via bad robbery. Awful style for Canelo. I could see Saunders beating him comfortably but only to get robbed.

        I think he's competitive against all the top guys in the division (Canelo, GGG, Charlo) but there isn't one I'd comfortably pick him to beat. I think Andrade is 50/50 to be honest. If he makes a real statement against Andrade though then that boosts his stature a lot.

          the only MWs Insee beating Saunders right now is Andrade ( could go either way ) , Golovkin & Charlo

          But everyday that passes is beneficial for Saunders if he fights Golovkin. I wouldn’t give him much of a chance against Charlo

            I'd love to see Saunders lose his belt and become a nobody. I've never liked him at all but I do give him credit for his boxing style. I think the winner of GGG-Canelo fights Saunders instead of a 3rd GGG-Canelo fight.

              Depends which Saunders turns up. The Lemieux Saunders beats them all but Saunders has not regularly been this good. I watched a video a while ago and he said he was looking after himself better between fights so camp was about preparing to fight and not making weight. Hopefully, still the case.

                GGG is not as dumb as Lemieux as far as slugging away with power punches. Canelo would probably have problems with Saunders moving away a lot. It would be a boring fight.

                  I'm positive Jermall Charlo could beat him.
                  would favor Golovkin to beat him.
                  50/50 on Canelo,Andrade

                    Charlo & Andrade rated too highly on this forum.

                    They both have done sweet FA at 160.

                    I think GGG knocks Saunders out but he'd beat Canelo on points. Although the fight would have to be in the UK for him to get the decision.
