Moral of the story: Canelo hits very hard.
what you fail to comprehend is that Billy being up on the score cards is absolutely irrelevant due to the way he disgracefully concluded that fight. Billy didn’t accidentally slip on a banana or anything. Canelo put his sorry azz in such a medically compromised position due to his stength of will and determination as a boxer. Billy was getting beat as a boxer in which there was such a huge gap in the damage department. Yea Billy looked decent but in terms of being outboxed in the damage department Billy was outclassed and forgot that at the end of it all this is a fight and not some pitty patty score card boxing contest. It wasn’t so much the risk and “danger” medically that was of great concern, but rather this lingering Man to Man understanding deep down — on a guaranteed Mortal Kombat level — that the momentum was now one sided to such Billy needed the out (as you saw zero resistance from the coward) otherwise he was going to get sent to the shadow realm with a knock out of the year contender. Anyone with an appreciative eye for the sport saw it. There’s nothing wrong with any of that except for the arrogant words and the way he carried himself leading up to the fight put him in a position where the clown has to be on mandatory suicide watch for the next month
@nightbreed141 typical response from someone who has no proof to backup their verbal diarrhea.
@-Sonny- i gave saunders 3-5 just because canelo had the power shots. Saunders cant play with God, no one mocks God. Never say God bless or act like you know God when you dont live a sanctified life.
You cant curse (say bad words) and bless with the same mouth. Perhaps can salt water pour out from the same source where fresh water pours out? Of course not. You either live for God or never use God’s name in vane.
@Alex Venegas You’re still here ??? There’s plenty of proof you just have to stop being lazy and look for it yourself ! One day you will realize that not everybody will do everything for you !
Luck shot
Hope Billy gets well. Much respect for him from a Mexican. No one deserves that. I know he runs his mouth but that’s just business. He has a family like all of us. Get well Billy and viva Mexico 🇲🇽
Nice respect there 🙏🏼🙌🏼
I have a family too and I’ve learned that you have to be accountable for what you say. Even if we have to learn it the hard way….
He knew the job was dangerous when he took it…
Viva 🇲🇽 Mexico🥊☝
@James Mills ok 👌
Nah I hope billy never gets well

Respect get well soon
Lets wish Billy a recovery, 🙏🏽 and put some respect on Billy for fighting the P4P knowing how dominant he was against Smith.
@Simply Me totally agree…and I’m from the UK😉….viva Mexico !
@Bud The Chud smith was a nobody ? But he was a wbss tournament winner and world champion in his prime just because you don’t know him means he’s a nobody
@Montoya preach
@Montoya he was absolutely terrible in that tournament until he fought an injured Groves.
That’s as good as it got for him then lost to Ryder and Canelo.
If he is so good in your eye’s lets see if he ever gets a strap again cos the champs at 168 and 175 will piss all over him.
He was very disrespectful to Canelo , but it seems that Canelo has really opened his eye on how to behave.😂😂😂😂@Dead Disney
Keep in mind, In Canelo’s last two fights he broke an arm and a face…wow
@Jeff Okriya He did get banned temporarily when he failed a drug test for the GGG rematch, that juicy Mexican beef is no joke 🤣🤣🤣
@Moises Fernandez like what man?
@Justin U who? Haha
@Scott Chapman Knock out IS NOT POWER BUT TECHNIQUE, Nick diaz Never punched harder than Lawler BUT LAWLER PUNCHED WAAY STRONGER
@Scott Chapman To KO someone you gotta Shake the wattery brain we all have, thats Technique Not power.
If you just hit hard the Brain wont shake enought to Turn the lights off.
Dude the shear force that must’ve gone into that punch is terrifying
He was eating that punch to the body all night, glad that prick caught one to the face.
Yup that punch came from the legs at the same time that BJ was basically running towards it
I’m a radiographer by trade, used to spend many an evening scanning patients for facial fractures. I’m not kidding when I say it was usually only major trauma patients or patients that had taken a severe beating with something hard that we used to see full zygoma fractures. Incredible power from Canelo, and he’s a super middleweight
Shear roid force.
@Wood Splitter yeah man he was throwing that uppercut all night crazy Eddie reynoso must have game planned to hit him when he was ducking out of action
Caleb Plant feeling a little weak at the knees after watching this.
Caleb Plant from the hood got dawg in him, Canelo aint walkin in the park with him nbs
@MUTINY 901 obviously he’s not a nobody. Lol. Compared to canelo he’s in his prime! We still need to nurture Caleb so he can be at their level. That’s what I meant, you’re right, bad choice of words. I do like Caleb as a fighter! He is a champion ! But he needs to build his career up for this fight.
Don’t go for the money yet! That’s the mistake these fighters are making! If they want to reign supreme they need to make sacrifices, and that means be patient and learn!
I’m really not interested in the Plant fight. Caleb Plant is a slightly harder hitting but less technical version of Saunders
@Harvs TheNerve like he said open up ur mind, its boxing and its a business, they do all and manipulate the testing for canelo and POSTED it in GOOGLE saying PEDNELO COMES OUT CLEAN bullshit, the drug cheat pednelo alvaroid was exposed in that fielding and callum smith fight, his right under arm was loaded with 💊💊💊💉💉💉 see for urself, he fogot to wear his shirt immediately in that fielding fight which he ussually do to hide that tainted right undah arm💪💊💊💊💉💉💉 #mexicanpedscheater
I wanted him to get knocked out not to get his skull punched in 😰
It was fun to watch Billy taunt his foe, let’s be honest! The first time in years Canelo’s opponent didn’t look sick with fear. The way Smith and the other lame Brits peed their pants like little kids was pathetic. He was having success in there, too, but the Mexican has another gear and it was done.
@Mr. Nzeribe That’s true, I hate Billy, but he was indeed doing a good fight, he even got some rounds to claim, but Canelo knew once he figured him out it would be over… and it was! Viva Mexico!!
@StylesD83 I think he’s a questionable character. Look into some of the shit he’s done, from his fucked up pranks to making a joking video about how to beat up your wife or girlfriend. Saunders has been an asshole for years and he finally got that karma back his way
@Majestic Camels
Seems possible that crushing the orbital bones slightly reduced the force transmitted to the brain inside the skull which could have reduced concussion/TBI. The brain gets bruised when is shaken hard and slams into the inside of the skull. Modern cars have crush zones for similar reasons to reduce impact of slamming passengers inside the car. I guess I’d rather be concussed that have my eye to bits but brain injury is very very dangerous too.
@ciscobal415 Wow! I didn’t know about those antics. That’s not good at all. Thanks for the info.
Damn Canelo did a straight up Mortal Kombat xray move to this poor dudes face.
@Ozymandias yup bjs failed caught twice and was banned for 6 months
@Super Hans yup i believe in karma, @DUBOIS Lol
@Sergio Guzman jr shut up nut
@Alex Gonzales yup they do all and MANIPULATE the testing then POSTED it in GOOGLE… HE COMES OUT CLEAN bullshit!
PEDNELO drug cheat ALVAROID
a disgrace to boxing
@nigel base canelo garbage truck juice
Some people think Saunders was just quitting because he didn’t want to fight anymore. This is very serious.
@El Leon I was rooting for canelo. But the type of injury that billy got is very serious. One more punch to the face could pop his eye out. Maybe you should step into the ring so you know the feeling.
@I M um bro did you not just watch what the doctor in this video said? If he got hit one more time this bone could of literally destroyed his eye permanently if it isn’t already and the orbital bone can literally crush his brain too you idiot, he couldn’t even see out of his eye is it worth it if he never fights again? His career is probably over after this.
@Loneliness Again bro.. sounds like you are obviously not familiar with boxing culture let alone Mexican boxing culture..You get in that ring, you put your life on the line. Every great boxer knows this. This loud mouth was talking so much shit on how gypsies are just as tough and that he’d die in the ring lol..As far as this doctor, no offense but he looks like he can get hurt with his own starbucks cup…. I remember getting put in a lot of life threatening situations in boxing and I admit not as bad as billy but I would never ever prepare to quit..was just not on the table..you put your heart where your mouth is…
@Pete Johnson Billy Joes injury was a lot worse than Dubois though to be fair, but yeah that quote is coming back to haunt him in a big way lol
@I M Of course it would lol don’t kid yourself
This is a testament to how hard Canelo punches and how tough GGG’s skull is!
GGG Canelo = Cavemen. Canelo is the P4P right now but GGG was clearly robbed of a W and a draw. Lara was also robbed. But now today, Canelo is the man! Prime. What’s next after he walks through Caleb. If GGG collects all the middleweight belts again I believe Canelo said he would fight him again.
@RedCardinal no he wouldn’t. Fights aren’t allowed with that much weight speration.
@Teddy Gonzalez no, I’m saying if GGG goes up it’ll be different
@Teddy Gonzalez I agree that GGG was robbed, but can’t agree with Lara winning against Canelo.
And lil Floyd Mayweather as well, schooled Canelo let’s not forget.
