You think that Saunders is likely to fight Golovkin this year?

i think they will rematch this year, and i think ormond will take it. he was a bit naiive i think in the fight and got pissed off with all the holding and the ref not helping at all and threw the loaf when i think if he had of kept pressing the last couple rounds he could have got the ko. i think they will rematch b4 end of this year tho and i think ormond will do it this time :bag:
i think so to. ormond is fighting next week, i think he got it wrong against terry, i think he thought he could walk terry down,and didn't realise terry had some power
I see it the other way. Flanagan has just grown so much with that title, I honestly think he'd give Ormond a seriously hard fight now, out boxing and wearing him down before Ormonds sheer toughness would see him take a pasting late on. Hope Ormond gets a big win to try and force it though, he's a good watch

Up the quality, cut the quantity.
the card should build and Flanagan vs. Mathews should be the last fight of the night and everybody goes home happy...
There's far too much pap on this card.
This card should just be W@rrens scousers and international fighters Tete and Singh.
Langford should he topping a small show in Birmingham or undercard on a BJS show.
Langford, Askin, Barrett and Woodstock could have been trimmed from this bill to streamline it...

its not a million miles away.
BJS is fighting a fellow K2 fighter, allegedly have just picked up GGG vs. Wade a week before BJS fight and it would time right for a summer fight.
I still reckon if Eubank jr is available they'll go down that road first however...

I'm the same for some reason. He's a tidy boxer too. Just think he plays it too safe and it doesn't make for good viewing.

I do. It'll make good money and I think they'll use it to launch their PPV model and that'll be the driver for it. Obviously Golovkin will be a big favourite and I would bet on him but for me Saunders has the tools to beat him - slick, good combos, excellent feet and a good judge of distance. He'd need to be super fit - pull his finger out properly - but if he fancied it he'd be in with a shout. Saunders could make good money, loose and still elevate his status - like Groves did in Froch 1 - if he put up a good show

There's a man I meet walks up our street
He's a worker for the council
Has been twenty years
And he takes no lip off nobody
And litter off the gutter
Puts it in a bag
And never seems to mutter
And he packs his lunch in a "sunblest" bag
The children call him "bogie"
He never lets on
But I know 'cause he once told me
He let me know a secret about the money in his kitty
He's gonna buy a dinghy
Gonna call her dignity

I've scored 2 rounds to Flanagan and 2 even. Hard to score these rounds.
