Comments Thread For: Andrade: Saunders Didn't Have Real Game Plan Against Canelo; Didn't Make Adjustments

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

ARLINGTON, Texas - Demetrius Andrade expected more from Billy Joe Saunders on Saturday night. Andrade anticipated seeing the sharpest Saunders imaginable in the ring against Canelo Alvarez. Instead, Andrade watched what he considered an ordinary Saunders attempt to fend off the hard-hitting opponent commonly considered the best boxer, pound-for-pound, in the sport.

EVERYONE thinks they can replicate Floyd's performance Vs. a Baby Canelo.

Agreed, which is ridiculous.

Firstly, Mayweather is one of the greatest to ever do it, and was totally unique. Secondly, I'm not sure even he would've been so quick to step foot in the ring at 154 against this version of Canelo anyway.

This actually isnt true.

Saunders was initially shelled up and cautious. Canelo made sure to hit him to the body and arms and as Roy Jones said, this is so they can feel his power, even if it doesnt land on the chin right away when they feel the power and its more than they thought a former junior middle should have, it makes them weary and stay shelled up. Saunders adjusted in the mid rounds and found his stride, completely contrary to what hating Andrande is saying. He won some rounds and he had more success opening up, trying to stay on the outside and he was ducking some winging hooks that canelo was throwing. Canelo noticed the bending down real low and went back to the upper cut and one of them ended the fight.

Canelo is just a much better fighter than saunders or andrade or anyone out there today. Saunders had his moments but he isnt a roy jones or calzaghe so his punching on the outside hands low tactic only worked so long before canelo adapted and found a way.

Andrade can try and make it sound as if he has the game plan to beat Canelo. It’s always easier said than done. Andrade stands no chance against Canelo in my opinion.

Everyone has a game plan, but if you get punched hard, the plan can go out the window. He had a game plan, but he did make a few errors. He threw a wild right hook, and as he bent down Canelo caught him with that brutal uppercut.

Of course, he was looking for that punch earlier, and his camp studied Saunders and knew that was possibly the money punch. It turned out to be, essentially, the punch that ended the fight.

Maybe Andrade could do better but I don't see him beating Canelo. I think the others like Benavidez and Charlo give him tougher fights, but I'd still give Canelo the edge. He's in the zone now. Since losing to Mayweather, and no he wasn't too young, just outboxed, he's clearly improved and is The star of boxing.

Came here to say just this. Spot on analysis Mr F4g.

Agreed, you can’t let Canelo dictate the pace. Canelo is a bully, it’s going to take someone with a bully the bully mentality to beat him now that he has grown into his prime size. Ggg could have done it but he was content to try and jab his way to victory and never turned up the pace through I still though ggg won the first and the second was a toss up. Someone’s going to have to hurt Canelo, hit him to the body, throw him to the ground in clinches....someone’s going to have to replicate a Holyfield v Tyson or a Honeyghan v Curry performance
