Saunders v Lemieux - Bjs to be smashed by Lemieux

[Primo Carnera]

If BJS wins this, I'll take my hat off to him. He does look in better shape and more motivated in his new environment.
But the way I see it if BJS is to win, let's be honest, it's gonna be on points. So as the champion, why go into Lemieux's back yard and a very big risk of a hometown decision?
I also think people are underestimating Lemieux's talent a little.
If the fight was in the UK , a BJS Points win would definitely be a possibility.
I really don't know what Frank Warren is playing at here.

BJS is no joke.

Slick boxer.

One of my favourite UK fighters.

I really hope he wins this and doesn't gas..

[ruthless rocco]

He won't gas. He'll get KO'd.

[Batman]

BJS will win the fight but will lose on the cards.

[Fenster]

Not sure how Lemiuex wins on points, without knockdowns, but Golden Boy/HBO have bought the belt so.... although they obviously think this is Canelo-Smith (virtually identical situation).

Listening to some respected American voices (with ties to GB), they were saying the GB insiders consider it a doddle for Lemiuex

I really want Lemieux to win here. If he can hurt Saunders he might pull it off. I see Saunders surviving some rough moments to winning a decision.

Seems BJS is damned if he does damned if he doesn't. If he wins on points it will be all "Well Lemieux was a very one dimensional slugger and it proves nothing and if he loses it we be all "Always said he was an over rated (insert your Gypsy related slag off here ) Brit who was lucky to beat a very green Eubank Jr."


It's not Jacobs or GGG but it's a good fight and fair play to them both for getting it made. Something for everyone.
