Records mean nothing, you talk some bollox man, absolute nonsense. You've fought better and got sparked by better, means nothing. Brad has shown all the attributes associated with a top class operator, that's why he gets good press. Now he's with eddie, the hype will be turned up a notch but lets remember, he's been getting plaudits for a very long time. So long as he doesn't take too big a step up, he'll be fine.

Boxing fans with no respect for a boxing champion who also comes over as a friendly guy on this forum and you call yourself a boxing fan?

Fck me, imagine if you hated the sport.

I get what Curtis is saying, Saunders has beaten a couple of decent fighters, without mixing it with the best at domestic level, plenty think he will go all the way, but it's time he got the fights to prove it. Although including Tyrone Nurse in that list taints it a bit, 30 fights and he's beaten no one, suppose he could be called a known quantity, we now know a stiff jab and decent work rate will be enough to get the better of him, Saunders is well past him by this stage though.
