Anyone watching the fight this Saturday? Thoughts? I think Saunders goes the distance but ultimately loses

I’ll probably watch.  And that outcome sounds about right.  Canelo has been a machine but he’s not had an overwhelming amount of KOs in recent fights.  Saunders is a decent fighter, soft competition not withstanding.  Canelo probably dominates him but doesn’t put him out

Yeah I'm thinking Canelo is starting to top out his punching power's effectiveness as he moves up in weight class. I really thought he initially wanted to be like Roy Jones and work his way all the way up to heavyweight but I've noted on from that idea.

Didn't realize Saunders resume was as weak as it is. That's truly a trash resume.

Wayyy too much money on the table and Saunders isn't getting a bigger pay day than this. Though I do agree somewhat that asking for an amateur ring is absurd at that level. Both probably just trying to throw the other off
