True but JC is well past his peak at his age.
yes, but he makes a comeback better than anyone
he's tough as nails too, the one time he was stopped he was still upright
Re the OP - no shit
Do people see BJS lasting the distance here ? Decent odds on Alvarez points.
BJS has never been stopped or even knocked down---so yes he can go the distance & possibly win.

yea, back foot billy is the only chance, has to almost be so negative the crowd boos and hopes canelo gets cocky and tries to walk him down. unlikely though, canelo will just counter harder i guess, and launch some long lefts hooks to the body if billy tries to jab and scoot.
That said, i absolutely think billy has to be painfully negative here and just pray the judges back it, flick a jab and scurry. hard to beat canelo on points, harder when your being negitive, but a better chance than billy chinning canelo... Interested to know the ring size, surely canelos teams got em in a phone booth
Good summing up.
Saul doesn't like to leave anything to chance.
Canelo will be juiced to his eyeballs and won't know whether he's in Texas or Guadalajara come fight night. Knowing the Saunders fans, though hugely outnumbered, I expect they'll mingle well.
This will be an occasion to enjoy - even if the result (Canelo on points) is forewritten. We're unlikely to see a Fury v Klitschko repeat, Wlad could never pull the strings that Alvarez obviously can.
Not that he'd want to. Wladimir Klitschko is not that kind of man.
Anyway, what's not to enjoy?
Matador v bull in a pig pen.

It's how Floyd did it. That's why I think Billy will give it a go.
As a boxing fan I wince at the prospect..
