Why on earth would any promoter want anything to do with Saunders now.

He has zero fanbase, is unreliable, sustained a potentially career ending injury in his last fight, and is seemingly a nightmare to deal with, oh and he's 34, inactive, and has a style predicated on being sharp, evasive and utilising his reflexes and footwork to avoid shots and counter.

It's really quite a shite proposition.

Fast car needs to find acceptable opponents for his Daz champs.

Daz will be happy so the show gets put on, Eddie puts his quota of shows, Saunders gets a shot, the champ gets a win

Dull to watch, barely fights, failed drug test, has done some disgusting things out of the ring, and cant think really who he would fight of interest?

Couldnt be less interested in him.

It is all bit meh, but there are a couple of fights the majority of us would watch and discuss.

Eubank Jr rematch......

How about Connor Benn? They have both said they want to fight on for their armies of fans.

That has to be what they are aiming at, couple of cash out fights.

Benn first, as he's the naturally smaller man, then maybe a final fight with Eubank, - maybe Kell Brook>?

“It’s always been on his mind. I think the time away from the sport has made him realise he misses it and loves it. I think he feels like if it’s not before the end of this year, it’s probably not going to happen.”

“So he’s put his foot on the pedal, trying to work off some of the weight he’s put on his semi retirement. So he”s working away, step by step.”

“He does boxing for the love of it. He actually misses the sport and it’s looking like he is committed to a comeback.”

“I think the goal will be to get down to 168, for sure. But for his first fight, let’s see. His weight has come down a fair bit, he just needs to stay consistent to get it down to where we would all like it to be.”

I'm not BJS biggest fan, but if he could get active he would be a good contender for a title providing he was motivated
