Billy Joe Saunders is set to face Saul ‘Canelo’ Alvarez with the two reportedly close to finalizing a deal. Canelo is undefeated since 2013 with his only loss coming to Floyd Mayweather. Saunders is undefeated in 29 bouts but Canelo will be his toughest challenge yet. The financial incentive of this fight is great for both fighters with a deal worth $278 Million being signed back in 2018. BILLY JOE SAUNDERS AN UNDERDOG AGAINST CANELO ALVAREZ? Alvarez has dominated over the past 7 years having held world titles in 3 divisions plus beating Sergey Kovalev after his move up to light heavyweight. Canelo’s technique is unmatched and his experience despite his relatively young age makes him all the more dangerous. Billy Joe Saunders is relatively new to the sport and despite that, he has truly achieved a lot. Despite Saunders being a world champion he’s someone who doesn’t get the recognition he deserves and is surely going to be the underdog for this fight. Saul 'Canelo' Alvarez vsBilly Joe Saunders [https://cdn.images.express.co.uk/img/dynamic/102/590x/Boxing-news-Canelo-Alvarez-Billy-Joe-Saunders-855116.jpg] DOES BILLY JOE SAUNDERS STAND A CHANCE? Joe Saunders is also a great technician in the ring but he hasn’t come across a great counter –puncher like Canelo but despite this, he has a great opportunity to cause an upset. If ‘’Superb’’ Saunders can put Canelo on the backfoot he surely has a chance. We must not forget he is still a great fighter one of the very best. He is currently ranked as the second-best middleweight. With so much on the line, this surely is a fight we can’t miss. Saul ‘Canelo’ Alvarez has the experience of 56 fights and knows how to go the distance to get a decision. Similarly, Joe Saunders [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Billy_Joe_Saunders] is undefeated in 30 pro bouts and has the potential to be the unified champion. ”If No One Breaks My Record You Will”-Floyd Mayweather Pens an Important Message [https://www.essentiallysports.com/boxing-news-if-no-one-breaks-my-record-you-will-floyd-mayweather-pens-an-important-message/] The pair are set to clash at the T-Mobil Arena on May 2nd for the super-middleweight belt.
