Billy Joe Saunders vs Shefat Isufi May 18th

Post by Glass Joe »

Billy Joe Saunders will fight Shefat Isufi for the WBO Interim Super Middleweight Title on May 18th at the Lamex Stadium, home of Stevenage FC.....

Same night as WBSS in Scotland. :witzend:

Good news for BJS fans as they will be able to park in the stadium car park on fight week.

Good old WBO "interim" titles and Fwank, eh ?!

The WBO champ hasn't vacated, isn't injured, and is active so even by the WBO's ever-flexible standards this is ropey.

The venue looks to be a sweetner from Fwank to BJS. Wonder how many tickets they'll sell though.

Interesting. Its an outdoors stadium event, at a stadium with a capacity of 7k and much of that is standing.

Its an interesting venue for a boxing event.

They couldn’t get an arena in London.? So the stadium is more close to home for BJS.

FW reckons they’ll get 12k in there..

Could understand it if bjs supported Stevenage bit of a weird venue as he doesn't. I know it's close to Hatfield which I think is where he's from but a very odd location in my opinion.

I think on the night, those stands in the background of the poster will look more or less like they do in the poster

Coming to a local high school near you. This is what BJS fans waited for? I'd rather watch Fury/Schwarz.

Very strange venue. Could be interesting though, I’d be tempted to go just to see what it was like, if I had any faith that it will go ahead as scheduled.

You reap what you sow, while , BJS has been refusing to get in shape , refusing to step up a level or two , creating his own personal auro of bing a stupid bully boy pratt

He's now getting what he created , an audience who can't be bothered watching ,

And then he gives a load of interviews at the presser saying no one wants to fight him.......after walking out on a shot against Andrade for his old belt. Moans about being hard done by......after he failed a drug test.

The problem the promoter has is all his cancelled shows. I don't live near enough to go but it was happening just down the road i would expect the show to be cancelled.

This is a show I could easily get too but I'm going to see what else is on the undercard...and then again I might not buy a ticket until the Saturday morning!

Probably didn’t cost much to book the stadium.. also being that it’s like a BJS homecoming aswell.
