    If Saunders is settled at the weight and on his game he is the fighter in the world most likely to give Canelo an absolute boxing lesson for 12 rounds to the point that even the judges cant hand Canelo a gift.
    He is more than capable of doing what Fury does at the higher weights and also like the big lump seems to raise his game for better opposition, but unlike Fury BJS also has a rock solid chin.
    I am not saying how it will go, but anyone who thinks a man who can box like Saunders doesnt have a chance could be in for a real shock.
    Canelo isn't David Lemieux.

      he meant to say Canelo don't got power like Shefat. Shefat counters BJS... Shefat is an ATG. Canelo got nothing on Shefat

            Not gonna argue with those points, and it's more than possible Canelo steamrolls him. I know enough about BJS though to know he is also more than capable of outboxing any fighter in the world on his night and making even a great fighter like Canelo look like a flat footed plodder.

              No way Saunders has been active enough for this.

                You guys have seen more of Saunders than I have I’m sure, but other than the Lemieux fight, what is a good example of him in top form for me to research?

                He seems to be skilled but highly inconsistent.





                no... he is HIGHLY skilled, but sometimes inconsistent

                I saw him do things when he was a kid that we have not seen from him yet in the pro ranks

                he is a excellent fighter, expect the best Saunders to show up

                but yea, Canelo looks to be right on top of his game at this point

                Canelo will struggle with Saunders movement/accuracy, he may lose early rounds... Saunders will struggle with Canelo's consistent pressure/composure/sharpness/accuracy

                a difficult fight for both guys

                  good point

                  Canelo only fights twice a year... but mostly tough high-pressure fights

                    I heard more than one poster say it in the same thread

                    Canelo is ducking Saunders because his style is too difficult

                    LMAO my how things change
                    yeah sure. Canelo defending apologists. Only a moron would think he's ducking Saunders. On the contrary, he was doing everything he could to make the fight as Saunders is the most vulnerable of the belt holders. Just like fielding was, just like Kovalev was, just like Liam Smith was. When a guy himself says " after this performance, I don't deserve a fight with Canelo or ggg", yet still gets the fight, you know what it is.
