比利·乔·桑德斯不打算成为卡内洛·阿尔瓦雷斯的下一个英国受害者
卡内罗·阿尔瓦雷斯过去与英国对手的关系并不太好，事实上他在5月8日的比赛中并没有打算输给对手比利·乔·桑德斯。
在过去的十年里，阿尔瓦雷斯打败了以下英国人(按时间顺序排列):马修·哈顿(第12名)、瑞安·罗兹(第12名)、阿米尔·汗(第6名)、利亚姆·史密斯(第9名)、洛奇·菲尔丁(第3名)和卡勒姆·史密斯(第12名)。没有一场战斗是近距离的。
赔率机构认为桑德斯将以5比1落败，这意味着他将是下一个受害者。
当然，他不这么看。他是一名优秀的、经验丰富的拳击手，从未被打败过，自2015年以来一直保持着他168磅的冠军头衔，不会被这一刻击倒。他知道自己在做什么，他认为这给了他与墨西哥球星对抗的机会。
“我是他面对的第七个英国人，”桑德斯告诉talkSPORT。“他已经很舒服地对付了其中的六个。英国人喜欢跳舞，四处走动，他们想要逃跑，但我会在那里让他打。我就在他攻击的范围内。
“我会设陷阱，就像他设陷阱一样。我觉得跑一百多万英里对我来说不公平。他的引擎不是世界上最好的，卡内洛他很擅长他的工作，非常擅长他的工作，但他也有缺点。
“我们看到有人试图逃跑并打他，我们看到有人试图用肌肉，但我们只看到一个人用了他的大脑，那就是弗洛伊德·梅威瑟。在这里，脑力胜过体力。大脑赢了，技术思维赢了。”
Canelo Alvarez hasn’t been too friendly with British opponents in the past, a fact not lost on Billy Joe Saunders, his opponent on May 8.
Alvarez has defeated the following Brits (in chronological order): Matthew Hatton (UD 12), Ryan Rhodes (TKO 12), Amir Khan (KO 6), Liam Smith (KO 9), Rocky Fielding (TKO 3) and Callum Smith (UD 12) over the past decade. And none of the fights have been close.
The oddsmakers have made Saunders a 5-1 underdog, meaning he should be the next victim.
Of course, he doesn’t see it that way. He’s a good, seasoned boxer who is unbeaten, has held his 168-pound title since 2015 and won’t be overwhelmed by the moment. He knows what he’s doing, which he figures gives him a chance against the Mexican star.
“I’m the seventh Brit he’s faced,” Saunders told talkSPORT. “He’s dealt with six of them very comfortably. The Brits like dancing and moving and thinking they’ve gotta run away, but I will be there for him to hit. I will be in range for him to hit.
“I’ll be setting traps, the same as he’ll be setting traps. I don’t think running a million miles an hour is gonna do me any justice. … He’s not got the best engine in the world, Canelo. He’s very good at what he does, extremely good at what he does, but there’s faults there.
“We’ve seen people try to run away and box him, we’ve seen people try to use the brawn, but we’ve only seen one man use his brain and that was Floyd Mayweather. Brain over brawn here. Brain wins this, technical thinking wins this.” |
