I agree fully re: Lemieux and how BJS is slightly overrated because of that fight. Some people seem to have forgotten just how comfortably Golovkin beat Lemieux.

There’s talk of Saunders announcing a deal with Top Rank/ESPN tomorrow and FW has said there will be an announcement tomorrow re: his next fight. Perhaps they’ll look to match him with Rob Brant for the WBA regular. If it’s true it would seem a strange move considering how most of the top middleweights are with DAZN.

I don't think ive ever grew to dislike a fighter more than Saunders, still totally rate him as a boxer he was class against Lemieux and looked to be coming into his prime but the failed test poses some questions especially in regard to how his engine was that night, I doubt PEDs will have too much effect on his technical ability, that along with behaviour outside the ring, his poor world title reign and his refusal to take the Andrade fight after a second chance after getting stripped, ive really no interest and am a bit gutted the WBO made this for the full title

Never seen or heard of Isufi but looking through his record its standard WBO top 15, he even has a stoppage loss to Dariusz Sek who I remember Warren and Team Yarde making a big deal of being the first southpaw opponent of Yarde, well done Frank

Saunders wins comfortably then defends against Abraham or Stieglitz

Really? Thought this was going to be for the Zurdo's vacated title.

Surely the thread title has just become confused, probably because the fight was put back from the original date?

You must be right. The OP would have explained it away.

I’d be cautious of saying a fight promoted by FW and featuring BJS is ‘definitely happening’ :lol:

There was more venom in Tyson's punches than in any fight of his whole career.
