LoL saunders fought exeptionaly. I know hes a nob and alot of people dont like him but come on. He was brilliant tonight. Lemieux didnt suddenly get shit overnight. He got out boxed and out gunned. Saunders has stepped up his game. He is in the mix with the other top middleweights.
True, but Lemieux loses most of his big fights. He only seemed to find his feet in the 12th. He fought like Baldomir against Mayweather the other 11. He should have been fighting like the 12th every round. I am not sure what fighters are waiting for sometimes. Divine intervention? The guy is there, so cut the ring and chase him down. Otherwise it's all on you if you get outboxed every round. Saunders was good, but Lemieux made him look better.
Benn-McClellan now on Box Nation.
Saunders didnt let him tee off whatsoever. He was moving and jabing and pains me to say but was anticipating everything lemieux was loading up and was anticipating any kind of onslaught the canadian was ready to throw. It was a really good performance by saunders and i was personaly surprised. I though lemieux was going to blow saunders away before the fight. I was 200% certain but it turns out i was 600% wrong.
Fantastic performance from BJS, Lemmy accused BJS of running, bull shit, he outboxes you in nearly every one of the 12 rounds.
Lemmy's face was bust up, that doesn't happen if someone is running away from you all night, career best performance for BJS, I'm well pleased that even though it went to points he took it out of the judges hands.
GGG and Canelo wouldn't be any where near as easy as that but they would be a hell of a lot more interesting now.
Lemmy must have suffered from the same type of hand injury as Rigo did, its a shame that all these fighters keep hurting their hands, I never realized fresh air could hurt so much.
Ideal scenario. GGG beats Canelo in the rematch but takes plenty of abuse in doing so. He comes to England for all the belts in late Summer next year with plenty more wear and tear on the clock and Saunders leads him a merry dance.
BJS potentially beating Golovkin next year is now an actual thing.
When God said to the both of us "Which one of you wants to be Sugar Ray?" I guess I didnt raise my hand fast enough
