Saunders unhappy with the size of the ring https://www.boxinginsider.com/headli...arez-showdown/
Saunders will be tricky but Canelo will win and I hope he paints him all over Texas
Saunders is a very talented boxer and I hope he wins.
This is a genuine fight worth watching compared to having to fork out for Chisora v Parker.
Cant see Saunders getting a decision in a close fight though and dont think he can dominate enough to win.
I expect him to put up a much better show than Callum Smith but think Canelo wins by UD.
Hope its fair scoring though.
I'm with you, I'm rooting for Saunders, I quite like him, he has said some really bad stuff, but there's something to about him I like. Eddie has been blowing smoke up canelo's arse and giving in to his demands. Saunders has real ability, he probably won't hurt canelo, although he will throw combinations and try to get in and out quickly. Canelo can have issues with movement. I can't see Saunders getting a decision if it goes the distance, not gonna happen. GGG was robbed in the first fight and the second was very close as well. Saunders has confidence, belief and natural ability, not many boxers go into a canelo fight thinking that they can win, Saunders will. Another issue is his conditioning between fights, Saunders regularly goes up to 200 lbs, not great.
Saunders is a decent fighter but comes across a complete **** of a man with how he acts and things he has done in the past and hardly ever seems to learn from.
70,000 fans there as well behind Canelo plus Eddie Hearn.
Only Fury v Joshua will be a bigger fight than this over the next few years involving a British fighter.
I do agree a lot of folk who know about the game think Canelo is the pound for pound best boxer in the world and has re styled himself since his only loss in 58 was against some chap called Mayweather .
He is clever boxing not like you all guns blazing Mexicans , and has a very distinctive hair colour for a Mexican as well .
Think the boxing world will be very shocked if Saunders gets anywhere near him, hence him pulling this ring size trick , didn't Fury do the same about the ring being the ring being too soft ?? Canelo will only see this as a weakness in his opponent

Canelo is pulling a stroke with the ring size. Saunders will walk if this shit carries on, he was promised things and now Canelo and his team are changing them. I'll say this, Saunders wont have any shit, Canelo may be underestimating him, He's a Gypsy and he wont be ****ed about.
Chris Eubank Jnr has put 10k on Canelo stopping Saunders. Gonna give the winnings to charity if he does.
That may well be true, Canelo definitely wouldn't give one though. And in the annals of boxing history Saunders would look like he bottled it, whether it's true that he did or not, "refused to fight the best pound for pound boxer in the world because the ring was too small" won't look good for his legacy
If he walks away from the biggest pay day and looking like he bottled it into the bargain.
I'm sure he'd give at least some of a shit.
His gypsy boy front might tell you that he doesn't but he will.
I think the fight will still go ahead. As somebody has already pointed out Fury did this against Klitschko saying the ring was too spongy and John Fury walking around telling anybody in ear shot it was off.
That fight went ahead and so will this one.
