Canelo v Saunders - May 8th Unification fight

[TitoFan]

everyone slagging saunders for moaning about judges and the rest but what is he (or anyone) supposed to do? he's not gonna win on points even if he wins every round

best he can hope for is a draw

so maybe its good to highlight the corruption before rather than seemingly moaning about it after

Yep, but he knew all of this before he signed the contract.

My question is:

How do you sign a mega-fight contract and not iron out the detail about the judges BEFOREHAND? Especially in a Canelo fight.

I mean... I'm not calling Saunders STUPID, but...

I would not put it past Canelo to sign one thing and do another, confident that Saunders will not turn away from a career high payday. The only thing BJS can do is highlight and moan about the injustice which is what he is doing. He could try and do a Fury and threaten to pull out of the fight which worked against Wlad.

According to Saunders Dad, Hearns being a cunt during this build up.
Making it virtually impossible for UK fans to get tickets, no UK judges involved and has told team Saunders themselves to pay for 50% of the team to fly over so.
He's also apparently been overheard saying "If Saunders wins this he's gonna fuck everything up for us"

Basically doing everything he can to give his cash cow Canelo every possible advantage.

Saunders dad has no reason at all to lie about any of this and just wants his son to get given a fair go of winning.

I’m not sure when people are going to actual realise this is true, but whether we like it or not, there is an A side and a B side, and the A side gets to call the shots. FACT!
Wlad , Floyd, now Canelo.
You might think it’s wrong, you might think it’s unfair, but it is what it is.
Saunders has got 2 choices, like it or fucking lump it.
And as for all the people saying “all he can do is moan about it to highlight it”, they’re the very same people that criticise Divers and people waving imaginary cards in football. Tell me, what’s the difference?

We all know about A side and B side. But those negotiations are supposed to happen before the contract is signed.

Saunders says "I want a British judge" and Canelo says "No dice... they'll all be Mexican"... Saunders can walk. No contract... no fight.

Ginger's the A side... everyone knows that.

Once the contract is signed, if it mentioned a British judge... it's still a contract. Otherwise why even bother with contracts?

A side means you have the upper hand in the negotiations. Not that you can wipe your ass with a signed contract after the fight preparations are underway.

Having said that... Ginger lives under his own rules... blessed by the WBC (we all know by now what that stands for) and all the powers-that-be in boxing.

I dislike the imaginary card, those who brandish it should be booked or sent off depending on the colour of their imaginary card

diving though goes a lot deeper for me, rolling around on the floor maybe should be punished but going down seems like a necessary evil

Yeah but it won’t work with Canelo.
1. Too many people would take his place.
2. The financial rewards are higher here.

Not this close to the fight. Fury threatened to pull out of the fight on the night when the ring had too much padding.
