BN dont need Matchroom to put fights on Sky box office. Fury Klitschko is on box office.
That might change after fury v klit. I don't know many who want to pay for it again.
It doesnt matter how many pays for fury Klit, BN has a legal access to Sky box office.

No, can't see it. He would get destroyed.
He's smart enough to know that.

So the mandatory will "get in the way" then.

I demand that "listen...." is added to the poll options above!

HBO have said they have reserved November 26th so maybe GGG might lace his gloves up sooner than expected

GGG fights fairly regularly, and didn't seem at all injured post -brook, so I wouldn't be at all surprised to see him fight pre year end. Don't think it will be BJS though.

I actually think he could become an O2 headliner in his own right. For all of our dissmissive comments about "boxing casuals", a lot of those at the Brook fight left as GGG FANS.

I'll believe Saunders will take that chance when I see it. I'm sure Saunders will fight some no hoper on October 29th...keep talking about how much he wants to fight GGG, and keep not actually doing it. Seems to be his style.

So only 2 obstacles
1--- Money has to be right , he says a fair amount thats all thats needed ,, whats fair in Billys eyes , 60-40 for Billy

2--- He has to refuse his mandatory and maybee get stripped ,, suppose that leaves Billy to fight for that vacant title after he gets stopped ..

Believe it when i see it

Haha, and I've just voted for it! But in all seriousness, I think it will happen; it has to. Unless one of them loses first.

Trying to convince himself he means what he says I guess. He knows damn well all of that sh*t isn't true. Don't know why you'd want to make a fool out of yourself like that.

BJS got reanimated after hearing WBA made Golovkin Jacobs mandatory. As soon as GGG clears Jacobs we will see Billy crawl back under that rock he was hiding. I cant take this lying twat seriously.

They're all great keyboard warriors on Twitter etc, but when it comes time to sign, they find a reason not to.

It seems to be that they're all waiting for Golovkin to grow old.

No evidence of it last night, so the waiting continues.

Those guys will have to remain behind their sofas for a little while longer.
True. Same with Eubank giving it the big 'I am' afterwards! Stop talking and get on with it if you want to fight! It bores and frustrates the life out me all this posturing!

It used to get me really worked up when things like this happened in boxing but recently thats all I've been seeing

After what Catchweight Canelo did in May with the whole Mexicans don't eff around tactic and vacating I lost faith in these MW's

I think it’s a nice little video actually. At least he was concise and showed some professional respect.
As regards his point about Brook’s weight, I would not be surprised if Brook punched harder than Billy Joe - welterweight or not. I don’t really recall Saunders being heavy handed. I’m glad he took the time to have a quick tidy round and make the place look presentable :D

I know, here we have the WBO champ offering future HOF middleweight GGG to a scrap in a field if it comes to it. I mean Yeah, I recon it could come down to something like that.

As long as GGG is guaranteed "Fair play" will be shown to both fighters this could be a goer :box: Billy Joe is a good strong boy....

Be it Eubank or Saunders talking about fighting GGG, two words just pop into my head
"Chinny Bisto" I'll believe it when I see it.

I can't ever seen Saunders fighting Golovkin. A lot has been said this week regarding how Kell Brook has shown opponents "the model to beat Golovkin". But if that is true, that's not Saunders style of fighting.

Personally, I think 3G would walk right through him because BJS would want to turn it in to an ugly brawl, and Golovkin would be loving that.

Personally, I believe Chruis Eubank would give 3G more trouble than Saunders.

Sort of agree , BJS would try to move and get caught walked down , and hit with big shots to the body , i doubt he could take with the condition he is usually in .. Jnr , well he would get clobbered has well but his agresion and strenght may show up a weakness ,, Tying GGG up and making him work for his living seems to be the answer for me .. I could be wrong but i feel the way to beat GGG is punch first and step in tie him up and weight for the ref to say BREAK then do it again

GGG is a master of getting his punch distance correct take that away and your in with a chance
