    Eh. I doubt it. I've seen too many interviews of BJS saying otherwise, but I hope you're right. It's like when Lemieux won the belt, but Saunder's will take the opposite approach and try to milk it as long as he cans while avoiding the biggest threat at the top.

    The only way possible that they unify is if Loeffler massively, massively, massively overpays Saunders which would mean the fight would have to be on PPV. That wouldn't go down well with fans since they don't understand the financial logistics of the sport.

    I rewatched it and rescored it. As 8-4. But 9-3 isn't out of the question. You assholes love Floyd's ass for doing the exact same thing as Billy Joe does, but don't want to give him an ouch of credit for it.......I wonder why?:think

    Billy Joe may have a few other fish to fry first, but eventually I think he will, as far as PPV goes, I don't see that happening no matter what, it would be an incredibly hard sell anywhere outside of the UK. Although if Warren and Loeffler come together they might be able to put something together in England and on their PPV, maybe even have the fight in Wembley, which would be huge there.

    How did you score it by the way?

    Yes it is. To be fair, Fury was born in England though and McGregor descends from English royalty. So it's really another one in the net for Team England. :happy

    I think he would fight Golovkin if push came to shove. His gypsy pride would bow to public pressure if he was being accused of being a coward. However, I don't think he's keen on the idea and, unlike many of other top MWs and titlists at the weight, at least he's honest about that.

    Exactly he has the cojones to say in public what everyone else is saying in private, and he should be applauded for his honesty, his Gypsy pride will get the best of him and he'll take the fight, after he schools Canelo.

    I respect his honesty, he's a likeably guy actually. Didn't like how he won the belt but hey, that's the game nowadays...

    As Tyson Fury would say, he's a fighting man. He's been bred to fight. So hopefully he will step up to the plate to face Golovkin. It's funny how Golovkin has even got the gypsies quaking in their caravans as well. Gypsies are generally some of the most fearless people you'll ever meet. lol

    Yeah, he's upfront about it so you've gotta respect that at least.

    I quit scoring it after like the 6th round. I would've been fine with any close decision or draw tho.

    But they interviewed Saunders after his Lee win. He said he'd fight GGG for 4 mill (HAH). So yeah.. Don't expect him to fight. I think he could care less. Way too many more options that don't involve getting brutal KO.

    I must say the thought of him facing Canelo and beating him is appealing.:lol: Maybe then he'll make himself worth the 4 Mill. Don't worry though his gypsy pride will get to him and he'll eventually take it.
