I never noticed he had one
He's getting £8mill for the Canelo fight. If it happens.
He is still an extremely unlikeable bellend tho, alway has been.

I found the video hilarious, his comic timing is almost as good as his timing in the ring.

Anyone who has been cooped up with the wife for a while will have had a proper chuckle at that.

The only ones not laughing are probably either men who really do hit their wives or women who have been beaten.

Why not? You should be able to joke about anything. We can't censor what we laugh about.

Granted it's not actually funny and he's a bit daft, but I don't agree with there being a humour police. Corona will kill thousands, are we not to joke about that? Who gets to decide?
I agree to a degree, but from a business point of view it’s a stupid thing to do, promoters want to bring fighters to the mainstream, makes it hard work with all the shit he’s constantly doing. The world has gone PC mad but unfortunately that’s the way it is at the moment.

I think the reason why this is an issue for people, is that because of the coronavirus and the ongoing lockdown that is occurring because of that, domestic violence incidents against both women and children spike significantly and there was an article about it the other day.

BJS timing is pretty fornicating stupid. Essentially when he's only just finished apologising for something stupid he said/done about a week or two ago.

I've not watched the video but read a lot about it, I cant stand Saunders, he's a bully and done some cruel things over the years but I imagine he's taking the piss here, nothing to apologise for, still as I say i don't like the man so I'm not concerned he's in the poo again


As bang out of order that coronavirus prank was, it was pretty funny

Don't ban him. Wouldn't it be good to see Canelo unload a few combos?

I agree...he is stupid but it was a joke. He doesnt go round beating women up.

I laugh at jokes about jimmy savile, gary glitter, fred west and barrymore. does not make me a nonce.

sadly he chose his audience poorly...as in the whole world!!

Does it make it hard work though? It keeps him relevant.

No ban him instead denying him of that payday that would come with Canelo.

Yes, we need some safe spaces set up at shows whenever they start up again.

Dude shows time after time in various forms how stupid he is, this isn't even the stupidest. The people who like him are probably the type who fart on people and then laugh themselves silly :lol:

Or get their kids to repeatedly punch people in the balls lol, try to get junkies to assault people, impersonate cops and get people to strip naked, phone guys up and tell them they've been f@cking their wife (filming of course), make fake calls to airports to get people kicked off flights, harass random people at McDonalds, etc. Truly an 8 year old in a mans body

Do people think that posting stuff like 'woke' or 'safe space' or 'virtue signaling', especially in quotations, make them 'harder' or 'more manly' ?

People are soft in general, my generation softer than the one before it and yours softer than mine. Call him a tosser, calling for a career over that? This is a man that threw fried chicken at a black man. I'd never expect him not to act a fool, but he's nowhere near a Mike Tyson level animal.

This reminds me of Bill Burrs sketch 'no reason to hit a women':

https://youtu.be/mIOY2ezMy9A

Saunders is having a laugh, its his form of dry humor, clearly not to everyones taste but he is joking, people need to calm down. I guess its how you tell em, Bill Burr in the abive clip being a good example of this.
