    Canelo Saunders

    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

    Re: Canelo Saunders

    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.

    Can't argue with that, never taken to Saunders, km fact he's an arrogant horrible man, from what I've seen of him.

    There's having an aggressive and nasty edge in the ring and then there's just generally being a massive **** in general. Don't think any amount of nastiness will stop Canelo knocking him out though

    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

    Saúl "Canelo" Álvarez Record :
    Total fights 58
    Wins 55
    Wins by KO 37
    Draws 2
    Losses 1
    World Champ in 4 weight classes

    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.

    Re: Canelo Saunders

    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.

    Re: Canelo Saunders

    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.

    If you genuinely believed you could win, you wouldn’t give a rats arse about the ring size, anyway, as Canelo is the one who is constantly gonna be coming forward, i don’t see what Saunders problem is?

    The problem is that a smaller ring negates Saunders better movement and footwork, Canelo likes people to stand in front of him. I don't think that saunders will win, but he has a better chance if the ring is bigger.

    Re: Canelo Saunders

    Chris Eubank Jnr has put 10k on Canelo stopping Saunders. Gonna give the winnings to charity if he does.

    Re: Canelo Saunders

    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.

    I don't think that he'd care, he's on a different level. Anyway, the fight is going to happen, Saunders has agreed the ring size, he's pissed a few people about etc,he's probably happy. It aint going to happen,but i'd love it if he schooled Canelo.

    I'm not sure what you mean by another level. Most fighters outside the heavyweight division would be gutted a fight against the main fighter in town and highest pay day was off. Some argue he brings in more for opponents than fighting the top heavyweights.

    If by another level you mean stopping your car with your mates and offering somebody drugs, asking her to perform a sex act on his mate and then offering money to punch a random bloke walking by then yeah he is pretty much way and above most boxers.

    Saunders' father, in an interview, said they could have asked for a 26 ft ring (the largest is in fact 24 ft). He went on to say... "it's wrong". However, when asked what was agreed in the contract, he replied.. "I'm not sure".
    20 ft rings are the standard size; I don't think Billy Joe Saunders has ever fought inside a 22 ft ring in his professional career.

    It's just games with Saunders, he's going to try every trick in order to unsettle canelo. I very much doubt it'll work, but it's worth a try I suppose. What I mean by another level, is that he's bonkers, off the scale, I don't think that he can even read or write. His community have been shit on for hundreds of years, he's a massive idiot, but I can understand the defensive behaviour to an extent. We have two gypsies as world champions, one was undisputed (Fury) if they weren't of gypsy heritage, then I reckon that a lot more people would think differently of them

    I think Saunders is a bit of a dickhead gypsy or not.

    There is a video out there now of him disrespecting a Mexican reporter who is interviewing him. He needs to grow up a bit. Nothing to do with his background.

    Being a complete arse is not being bonkers and off the scale. It is like he has never grown up. Maybe if he takes a pasting from Canelo it might force him to.
    People view others in different ways. You think he is bonkers off the scale. Others think he is an arse. Each to their own.

    Saunders is an arsehole, that's a given, some of the things that he has said are disgraceful. I'd wager that there's something not quite right with him, it's like he's got ADHD or Tourettes. He's been fined the best part of 230 grand and he still can't shut it.

    I want him to win purely for boxing reasons, Canelo has been done for Juicing as well, and he got off lightly. Canelo is brilliant, but because boxing is pure business, he gets what he wants, he's the biggest PPV draw and money talks, so the commissions, Promoters, TV companies and his opponents have to give in to his demands, like catch weights, rehydration clauses etc. It's his tune or nothing. Golovkin beat him in the first fight and the second was very close. Lara gave Canelo problems and lost, and Floyd only won on a split decision, watch that fight back, Floyd won 9 rounds and the others were close.

    So, i'm backing Saunders, not because i endorse what he says, but because if he won, it would cause a meltdown in Boxing. Saunders wont win, even if it's close, he'll have to level Canelo, which isn't going to happen.

    Re: Canelo Saunders

    For the first time in a very long time I want a British fighter to get beaten by a foreign fighter.

    I honestly can't remember when that was the case before, if ever.

    I agree with everything you say about him. There's a massive lack of maturity about him. When he tries to be humouress he fails, he's simply not funny.

    As you say, I don't care whether he's a gypsy or not, it isn't the issue - he's just so disrespectful.

    I can't bring myself to want him to lose, I've always backed British fighters, particularly when they're fighting abroad as underdogs.
    However, I think I'm going to only be mildly disappointed if he gets beaten.

    He should be up for it. It is easily the biggest fight he will have in his career.

    Not sure he has got into Canelo's head as some are suggesting though. He has had 58 fights prior to this. Beaten only by arguably the best there has ever been. I'm not sure BJS having a whinge about ring side and commenting on beef while ignoring his own nasal spray issues will shake Canelo too much.

    Billy just strikes me of the type of person who would be a complete arsehole whether he was a boxer, bricklayer or unemployed lad down the pub.
    I am a very take as I find kind of bloke or like to think so. BJS has done nothing to me to suggest he isn't a prize prick and proves it time and again.
