Comments Thread For: Hearn: Canelo-Saunders Announcement, Presser Should Happen Week Of 3/16

[MisanthropicNY]

Hopefully Canelo doesn't piss hot again or use the Coronavirus to dealy the fight to get the EPO or whatever else he might be taking now out of his system like he did when the first GGG fight was scheduled. This is one of those fights that's going to shock people I think. Billy Joe's slickness is going to give Canelo a lot of problems. And the best part about it for Billy Joe is the best time to score against Canelo is the later rounds. If you watch Canelo, he doesn't fade like he used to but he clearly is a front runner - look at those GGG fights. The problem for Canelo is we don't know how many rounds it's going to take to figure out Billy Joe's style and pattern. It could be 2 rounds but it could also be 7, 8 or 9 rounds. And if Canelo doesn't download Billy Joe's data early enough he could be down rounds and then could lose rounds late due to fading. I'm just saying. And if Billy Joe is the one who figures out Canelo's patterns - then it could be a really long night for the Ginger. I have BJS in an upset decision.

you're seriously going along with this nonsense? So now ggg was scared of someone who's biggest win was beating someone who ggg already destroyed 2 yrs earlier in Lemuiex? Let's not forget that ggg called out Saunders around 2015, Saunders said he wasn't ready, then when Saunders was finally ready in 2017, ggg was fighting jacobs and Canelo. If you're going to accuse ggg of ducking, at least say it's ward because then you'd be accurate. But saying he ducked Saunders to try and build him up since he's canelos next opponent is lame. Nobody fears Saunders. Especially now.

Canelo's resume is far superior to GGG's. That much can be said with no hesitation.

that wasn't what was being discussed. Acting as if Canelo facing Saunders is him facing someone that ggg and others are scared of was the point. Nobody fears Saunders.

As far as Canelo's resume, yes he has a lot of good names and a main part of that is because of the fact that he's entitled. He was promoted heavily since he was 19 yrs old, is from a boxing crazed country so he brings in money and fans that others don't. You don't think ggg would've jumped at the opportunity to face guys like mosley, mayweather and cotto? The issue was, he wasn't on their radar due to risk vs reward.

Translation:

Just cancel it because it makes 97k look like an even bigger puss for ducking Saunders, and fighting Vanes, Rolls, etc, meanwhile Canelo does sign up to fight him.

Go sit on a dïck you hömo.

There's no doubt. 100% that GGG ducked Saunders and fought bums. GGG is smart - he fought a lot of bums and then took a big fight here and there against Americans so he wouldn't be looked at as a complete pu55y. GGG's flat-footed style wouldn't have fared well against BJS and he knows that. GGG practically just lost recently and that Canelo rematch was at best a tie for him, so he's done now. Fan boys are still clinging to GGG though even though they know he's well past his prime now.

Let’s not forget about that life changing moneys was actually same they gave Lemuix $1.5 million.

But yeah no one fears Saunders. He can box but has zero power. I expect Canelo to Knock him out once those body shots start to slow him down

I expect Canelo do slow Saunders way down by working that body. Slick boxers can be slowed way down with hard body shots.

Serious question: what stopped Golovkin from fighting Saunders instead of Vanes Martirosyan or Steve Rolls or the upcoming Kamil Szeremeta?

[TinAgeOfBoxing]

Saunders is an absolute bum without his drugs. Cant even make 160 without drugs which shows he owes all his 160 wins to drug use. No way he can run around the ring for 12 rounds like a crack head without his crack. Even if he did he is guaranteed to lose a decision to Clenelo in Vegas. Clenelo fighting the weakest opponents DAZN will let him fight. DAZN losing 10's of millions every fight.

Compare resumes? They fought each other twice. GGG has one win and one draw vs Clenelo. Both guys have inflated resumes full of cherry picks.
