Tyson Fury talks a lot of shite but he can get away with because he’s a likeable bloke and he’s been very open about his mental health issues.

Billy Joe just comes across as a prick. His banter isn’t funny at all.

Team Saunders rocks. The Gypsy King himself made some good promotion.

Credit where it's due to billy joe and his team here for getting their own way with regards to the ring size as by all accounts canelo is a bit of a diva as far as terms and conditions go.

He clearly doesn't think it'll make much difference.

It’s a bit rich calling Canelo a diva when Billy and his team have been whining about everything!

There was a decent documentary on Canelo last night on BBC1 - Canelo - The Greatest Athelete You’ve Never Seen.

It’s worth a watch and is on iplayer now. Eddie will be all over these kind of shows when he goes to DAZN - supplying free/cheap content to networks promoting upcoming fights.

I highly doubt Alvarez gives one flying fk what Saunders gets up to. It's just shows the limit of the intelligence from Saunders that he resorts to this load of tripe time and time again. He's got little else.

Jacobs got all up in the face of Alvarez way more than Saunders has so far, but come fight night was kept in his box.
Do agree , all the idiots calling out to Canelo just came across has a bunch of clowns , especielly the big fella with the mouth,,, sort of made me wish a bunch of mexican homies with baseball bats suddenly appear :lol: :lol: :lol:
Eddy Reynoso is playing a blinder basically doing nothing and not even acknowledging any of the antics, like at that face to face pulling Canelo away and saying nothing / doing nothing, less is more sometimes

For all the grief ive been giving Saunders lately, i do think on his day he's a class boxer and its good to see he's not intimidated, a must if he's to have any chance of winning

When you’re wearing sunglasses to a face off.. you know you’re nervous as fûck!

Didn’t want Canelo staring down his soul.

He’s always been around, like Jim Jim said, he was taking the pressure away from his son. BJS is 100% for this.
