    Got up and listened to it on the radio, Saunders was on top until the 8th apparently. 
    Just shows how misleading radio can be.
    Saunders couldn't make any headway against Canelo.
    I think he realised that after the first two rounds.
    He caught Canelo with 2 good punches that had no effect whatsoever. 
    That’s years of doping for you, makes you impervious!

    I think realistically there was only one outcome in a fight between a guy who took GGGs punches and knocked out Kovalev against a small SMW with no real punch power. 
    This photo sums it up...

    Thats a brilliant photo, I don't have a huge amount of time for BJS as a person but as a boxer you feel for him there.  The ring can be quite a lonely place in these situations - he is thousands of miles from home and getting an arse kicking from a bloke who at this point had him beaten and was just waiting for the right time to inflict the final blow.

    It worries me as a 'sport' when someone gets that sort of damage inflicted on them. A broken eye socket sounds truly horrendous.

    So the question there is do performance enhancing drugs put other fighters at increased risk of injury. 

    Look at Canelo - he’s solid. Unnatural power at the weight?

    Considering he was a light middleweight who knocked out a light heavyweight, after being banned for 2 failed drug tests.  doesn't mean he was using at the time to be fair.

    He’s been caught before for doping hasn’t he? When he blamed the failed drug test on eating contaminated meat when in Mexico.

    It's not a sport, it's barbarism.

    All sports are dangerous.
    I'd rather have a broken eye socket than burnt to a crisp in an F-1 car crash.

    Or getting shot on a race course after falling over.

    Yeah, it's a hard life for jockeys.

    Yes the Mexican beef! He started Pro boxing at a very young age at maybe welterweight? so he’s moved through the weigh classes - some of that is probably natural strength and power that you acquire as you grow - some of it perhaps not. 

    It’s not an argument I’d particularly put forward as I think PED use is fairly widespread. I’ve seen the question posed by others though.
