Billy looks in incredible condition. Has the mentality not to be affected. Still a big underdog.

The 20 who voted for Saunders need sectioning.

Zero chance of seeing 12. Or hurting SCA

I’d be pissed off. He’s getting no favours.

Man up. Nobody cares. You’re the challenger, therefore you have to take it from the champion. Stop bitching and fight.

He can take all the PEDS he likes and have the most warped vile mind around - won’t make a blind bit of difference.

It’ll be a very dark, very sad day for boxing if Saunders wins.

Would he overtake Calzaghe as the greatest 12st guy in British history?

He’s already no 3. Olympics as a teen, undefeated two weight world champ. Willing to go face the p4p no1 abroad in front of 70,000 screaming Mexicans!

I dislike BJS more than most but after Canelo's tainted meat and dodgy scorecards against GGG, I am rooting against Canelo for most fights.

‘Willing’?? It’s anyone’s dream lol. He’s done nothing to deserve the payday.

Crawford is top of the official pound for pound rankings system. It’s not make-belief, trust me-its real! It’s fornicating real. Kilo for kilo.

He struggled enough with a totally raw novice who had only even began boxing a couple of years before in Eubank Jr.

He can hope Canelo has got old overnight then he might last a few rounds if he doesn’t just run like a bitch.

Nope it’s real.

Amateur boxing and professional boxing are the same thing too man.

I can only think of Woodhall and Billy as top super middleweights to make the Olympics. Wharton has even got his tracksuit but never made it. The rest never got close.

Unfortunately Brian Schumacher wasn’t up to much cop as a pro - captain of the 84 team. Michael Watson had beat him twice, should’ve been him that year facing Virgil Hill. But Scotland’s Russell Barker dropped him in the ABA semi and they gave him a 3-2
