Saunders is still a local european level talent, I think N'dam takes this with a clear UD. Saunders barely edged it out against Eubank jr who dominated most of the second half, and I don't even rate Eubank high. Ndam is about to teach this british bum what it's like to fight a former world champ. I don't rate Ndam high either, but if Saunders clearly beats him like Quillin did he deserves a lot of credit, and I will eat my crow.
N'dam isn't a great boxer but i think his work rate will be too high for saunders who really needs to work on his stamina which is shocking for a guy at this level I see Saunders outboxing him in the early rounds and getting outworked as soon as the 4th round when i believe he will tire if he is successful in slowing down HNN with good punches and good tactics or if he has improved his stamina he could win this but i would have HNN the 60-40 or 65-35 favorite i think Saunders would fair better against Quillin than HNN tbh
Quillin would kill Saunders, don't throw the guy to the wolves, he's still at a European level, let him branch out a little against world class guys before sending him to the grave.
Is this actually going ahead? If so I fancy Saunders to KO him to be honest, I think BJS I a good fighter but nothing special but says a lot about N'dam then really
No way Saunders KO's N'dam. If you really believe he does, bet all your money on it because the odds will be crazy good for you. Quillin knocked this dude down like 5 times, and still didn't stop him and he actually carries power unlike Saunders who's definitely not a knockout artist. Only way I see Saunders winning is by decision.
Didnt know they were facing each other! Sounds a good match up I have always liked N'dam and had never been convinced about Saunders, but Saunders has really impressed me with his attitude. He didnt have to take the Eubank fight, and I felt he won a clear decision. Saunders last 4 opponents have all been undefeated and I think I may have underestimated him. Win or lose Saunders is willing to take tough tests and that has to be credited. On the same note N'Jikam also seems willing to take tough fights and seems happy to travel, so that is also a credit. If someone had of asked me to pick a winner a year ago, I would have picked N'Jikam without a second thought. But now Im not so sure. Saunders has shown that he can box to a plan. Im sitting on the fence a bit at the moment, which I dont like doing. I will post again if this thread comes around and if the fight is 100% happening
N'Dam N'Jikam. He brings pretty much all the elements of everybody that has bothered Saunders hitherto, but combined, and magnified. (ie, quicker and more athletic than Eubank Jr., more accurate and slippery than Blandamura, stronger than Ryder or Blackwell, etc.)
thats your opinion, tbh quillins best win is HNN and he was getting outboxed for most of that Quillin hasn't really proved his much beyond european level , lets see how he does with Lee first only guys at middleweight that i would say have proven to be world level at the moment are Murray,GGG,Lee,Geale
Yeah right, and those fighters were all beAten by Saunders. So ndam has better than of all these guys best attributes rofl. He said be fighting Ggg then. That doesn't add up at all. This Ndam is not a better boxer than Saunders he would have to outwork and hurt billy joe. Otherwise decision to sanders.
agreed , remeber HNN from the amateurs high work rate and very strong but that's all he brought don't know how he outboxed quillin so easily considering his not much of a boxer, great athlete very fit and strong
:blood He's easily Saunders' equal (at least) in boxing skill, and more talented in the bargain. You guys are such homers. :yep
Maybe not but I fancy it, if it was to be held in Britain too that would help his cause for a KO too but I think he hits harder than his record suggests, N'Dam has been known to go down and I think that Saunders may not be as powerful as Quillin but he is more accurate and times his shots just as well as Quillin
