    Saunders (Lemieux) vs Canelo

    The Saunders that fought Lemieux, so just as fast and sharp, fighting Canelo...

    How do you guys think that one would've/would play out?

    Saunders would run for 12 rounds and lose a decision.

      Actually lose a decision or do you mean the judges just favouring the agressor when he is actually landing less punches? I think that Saunders could've made it very difficult for Canelo

        It would be very competitive for sure. The Lemieux fight flatters BJS though, Lemieux was tailor made for Saunders stylistically. Canelo is at a far higher level than anyone Saunders has fought. Canelo UD...

          Close fight like fury vs wilder or Jacobs vs ggg. Saunders will go down at one point but be competetive throughout and probably deserve the victory but it will be close enough to give it to canelo and saunders will react to canelos blows more than vice versa. That's how I see it. Canelo can't defeat Saunders style cleanly and convincingly. Saunders might go down but he won't be stopped he's tough and would turn up very fit.

            Saunders wins.

            Whether he gets the decision is another matter altogether.

              No chance Canelo drops Saunders.

              Saunders has a granite chin, never even been wobbled in the amateurs or pro's.

              I don't think Canelo has the power to hurt Saunders at Middleweight.

                The reality is the posters here didn’t watch BJS vs Eubank Jr or BJS vs Monroe Jr. Those flaws in the game Canelo exposes two fold

                  Nah Saunders chin is really good bro I don't think either of them get dropped in that fight unless it's a balance issue.

                    Eubank Jr. don’t have shock power. In the later half BJs was confused and shelling up to Eubank’s ongoing onslaught power. Canelo’s Ring IQ would close the ring on BJS. Easy work. All day errday!

                    BJs ducked Andrade too. THese theories make it even easier for Canelo
