All jokes a side I suspect if BJS hadn’t brought his name into disrepute over the £100k fine this vada issue would have been overlooked.

On balance, instead of going "Oh fair cop guv, didn't know that shite was in there" & coming out with "Feck 'em, they can't do nothing, the BBBofC allow it!" wasn't the smartest move in the world.

But then again, Saunders is a fornicating dinlo, so what you gonna do?

:witzend: :witzend: :witzend: Bet the 5 people who booked flights will be gutted still a good trade card. Wonder where BJS goes from here. (probably balloon back in weight)
Looking on the bright side, he can use the down time to prepare for his Mensa exam.

I think if Eddie wantedto save BJS it wouldn't be to tough to do.
When I saw the IFL vid, Eddie didn't give a monkeys, now Andrade, Eddies fighter, will have a walk in the park against an unknown Namibian, while putting himself in line for the big fights in the division and alsodestroying FW's plans.

One of those fights where a lot of people are pulling for a double knock out...

Though I'd actually love Jnr to starch him.

Whether it was his fault or not, I wouldn't make arrangements for one of his fights.

100% Eddie will be buzzing about this, his boy pretty much guaranteed the title and he'll be able to pay the opponent two pound fifty, he'd guaranteed BJS a fortune.

Don’t forget the Akavov fight which was also rescheduled at late notice, hence BJS having to defend his title in a leisure centre.

It’s strange that there’s been no announcement from Eddie, Matchroom, BJS or FW so far. I wonder if FW’s making sure he keeps the title and they only fight for the interim and Eddie’s not happy.

Considering Matchroom had a replacement opponent all signed and sealed it does seem quiet.

Maybe Frank is keeping his powder dry this time seeing as his last statement totally backfired.

I'd say Eddie is also a bit pissed that into the 2nd of his DZN cards the headline fight falls apart.
