The end of Saturday night’s Billy Joe Saunders-Canelo Alvarez fight couldn’t have gone any worse for the Saunders family.
A video was shared on Twitter showing Saunders’ father Tom trying to get towards the ring to check on his son following the eighth round of his loss to Alvarez. He would quickly be stopped and pushed away by security.
The mayhem only got worse after he got pushed.
A brutal uppercut in the eighth caused a deep cut under Saunders’ right eye and left him unable to come out for the ninth round.
Alvarez added the WBO super-middleweight belt to his collection after defeating Billy Joe Saunders in front of a record-breaking 73,126 crowd inside Texas’ AT&T Stadium.
