BJS running his mouth again

Saunders Slams Canelo: He's a Ginger P*ssy, I'll Fight Golovkin!

By Edward Chaykovsky

WBO middleweight champion Billy Joe Saunders (24-0, 12 KOs) has ripped apart Mexican superstar Saul "Canelo" Alvarez (48-1-1, 34 KOs).

Last year, there was talk of the two colliding in the fall. Saunders was going to fight on the undercard to Canelo's bout with Liam Smith last September in Texas. Saunders and Canelo's promoter, Golden Boy Promotions, were unable to reach a deal on the opponent.

Saunders was still a prime candidate to fight Canelo in December, but that fell in the wind after Canelo suffered a bad hand injury that ruled out the possibility of fighting for the remainder of 2016.

Saunders is now in line to fight IBF, IBO, WBC, WBA middleweight champion Gennady Golovkin (37-0, 33 KOs) on June 10th in Kazakhstan.

But there are also ongoing discussions for Canelo to face Golovkin in September. Canelo would first have to beat Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. at a catch-weight of 164.5-pounds.

Canelo's promoters have expressed concern over Golovkin going forward with a fight in June, and they even made mention that a June fight could jeopardize the deal for a September pay-per-view clash with Canelo.

Saunders is angered that Golovkin is continuing to pursue Canelo. Last year Golovkin was the mandatory challenger to Canelo's WBC belt. The fight never happened when Canelo vacated his title and moved down to 154. Golovkin became the full WBC champion by default.

"I’ll tell you what Canelo is. He’s a little ginger p*ssy. A little ginger f*ggot, that's what he is," Saunders erupted to IFL TV.

"I don’t know why Golovkin is worried about him for, because he had a belt and gave it to him. He don’t want to fight Golovkin. He don’t want to fight nobody. Again, they want to fight people... they want to bring people down. They are bringing Chavez down to a stupid, stupid weight. He wouldn’t go to 160 to fight Golovkin. He won’t have me, yet he’ll have Chavez coming down."

"[Canelo] is nobody to worry about because he’s just trying to protect something - his legacy. The only legacy he’s got is getting beat off by Mayweather - nothing else. He might have tons and tons of money, good luck and fair play to him. I know how the sport is and he deserves it, but in my opinion, he’d never go down as a great - never, ever. I'm not saying that I'd go down as a great, but as a boxing fan he will never go down as a great in my book, ever."

BJS arguably lost his last fight he gonna fade to black after GGG KOs him he gonna try and get that purse up tho

Currently Miguel Cotto is heavily inactive, so I might be leaning to agree, but at what weight and we simply don't know how far Cotto has faded. However, I give more points to Canelo for defeating a faded future 1st ballot hall of famer on a hot streak at a weight both men were accustomed to fighting at.

I do agree that Brook is GGG's best win, but Jacobs was his best opponent.

Cotto is more battle worn than Brook, but Brook's no spring chicken either (what does that even mean, spring chicken?)

Cotto wasn't really on a hot streak to me though breh.

1. Clear loss to Floyd Mayweather
2. Clear loss to Austin Trout
3. Bounce back win over an ESPN fighter in Delvin Rodriguez
4. Clear win over a hobbled Sergio Martinez
5. KO win over a severely drained Daniel Geale

Then Canelo gave him that work. I think the Kell Brook that faced GGG at 160 would've beaten the same Cotto that Canelo fought.

I just didn't think Cotto was "back", just thought his wins came under dubious circumstances

Question that I have for all GGG fans and GGG haters:


Do you think GGG was OVERrated, do you think Jacobs was UNDERrated, or do you think the answer is somewhere in between?

Jacobs underrated
GGG overrated all time, but still #1 Middleweight as of right now and a top p4p guy.

Jacobs... Many people thought his chin wouldn't hold up but it did, and he fought back. All he needed was a bottle of thunderbird and he would've had that last ounce of courage to beat GGG clearly.

I had it 114-113 GGG

 

[SuikodenII]

You gotta run down of all of his numbers?

Brook wasn't exactly lighting up the streets either... His opp is outside of Porter...

I'd rather lose 116-112 to Mayweather than claim a victory over Jo Jo and Bizzyier

But, I do see your point

Indubitably

lol Even though I scored it for Jacobs, the bolded is true



He made some rounds close, like his trainer would tell him in the corner, by letting GGG connect with some big shots at the end of the round when he would get trapped in the corners. Im sure that swayed the judges as well

 

[Newzz]

Nope.


Only time I even see his name mentioned is when a PPV happens, and then people turn to him for the "true" PPV numbers.


He's the one who said GGG/Lemieux only did 97k.
