    better get your eyes checked. giving callum five rounds is more than generous. are you terry o'connor? i'm still trying to work out when ggg stopped being a risk
    So if it is possible to give Callum Smith 5 rounds then it surely can not be a robbery.

    I watched their fight and think I had it a draw but to use that as an excuse that Canelo should not fight him is a bit weak. It would be Canelo's toughest challenge at super middle.

    GGG is always a risk, never said he was not.
    i said it would be generous to give callum five rounds, meaning not more than or at the most. i'm want canelo fighting the best, i saw ryder clearly beating callum, so he is the better opponent for me. ryder is the tougher challenge at supermiddleweight, and if you had that fight a draw, then i don't understand how you can consider callum a tougher challenge than ryder, john was considered an easy fight for callum

    i also think ggg was a risk, i never said you did, some try to imply he wasn't
    Callum had an off night and many fighters have them because they are not motivated. Callum smashed Groves into retirement and when focused is very dangerous. He is huge for the weight and will probably move up if he can not get the fight with Canelo.
    callum may have had an off night but he should have lost. groves was coming of an injury and was damaged goods. he could fight saunders, but both don't want to take a risk and are holding out for the canelo golden ticket. callum should give ryder a rematch
    To be fair most fighters are waiting for Canelo to give them a call. Hopefully it does not stagnate Smith career and he moves on if he is not chosen.
    yes most are waiting on canelo. do you consider callum a weight bully as you state he is huge for the weight?

    Callum Smith uses his weight and size as an advantage and is no different to Hurd in that regard. The difference is that Smith has boxing skills and does not rely on the weight as much.

    Anyway, the fight with Ryder was not a robbery which would be a 10-2 rounds or 9-3 at most.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    fighters will always try to use every advantage available to them, if they make weight at the weigh in i have no issues with it

    i saw ryder clearly win that fight and they stole it from him

    Billy Joe Saunders blasts Canelo Alvarez over potential Ryota Murata fight before ‘talks end’

    Billy Joe Saunders has hit out at Canelo Alvarez for attempting to arrange a fight with Ryota Murata in Japan next.

    It was initially reported that the Brit was frontrunner to face boxing’s biggest star in May, then stories emerged suggesting Canelo was eyeing Murata instead.

    The Japanese WBA ‘regular’ middleweight belt-holder does not have the most attractive record on paper at 16-2 (13 KOs), but it’s worth nothing that he avenged both defeats with stoppage victories.

    Murata is also an Olympic gold medallist from the 2012 London games and a huge star in Japan as a result.

    Saunders said: “Very poor fight for the fans. Two losses out of 18, he is a journeyman. DAZN needs to look at that and say, ‘F*** off ginger pubes.'”

    Regarding the lesser WBA ‘regular’ belt – which many don’t consider a true world title – BJS added: “Put it in the bin.”



    Now though, some positive news has emerged for Saunders as a report from ESPN claims talks for Canelo vs Murata have ended and the fight is off the table.

    BJS and fellow Brit Callum Smith are understood to once again be the two frontrunners for Canelo.

    That does not sound true.
