    He should be allowed to make 2-3 defences first before we place him under these allegations.

    Well kinda, but he's the only honest one of the lot.

    There are plenty of legit fights there from Saunders's perspective and he doesn't have a mandatory (right?). It's not the same as Canelo who has Golovkin as his mandatory but is running scared.

    No, before you ask no im not a fan either. He has only just won the belt, says and I believe him when he says it too that he would take the fight for the right money, he knows he isn't ready for GGG and no one can argue with that, if he continues winning the fight will happen in 2017 but GGG wouldn't take that fight anyway is it was offered to him as there is no money involved.

    Let BJS make a few defences, earn some good money, secure his future and then go from there.

    And let's be fair here, not even 24 hours after winning his first world title fight and you're digging him out?

    It's hard to give out to Saunders about this becuase his admitted ggg would beat him senseless and he doesn't want to fight him. That's refreshing and better than the Peter quillin nonsense where he says he wants the fight hut makes himself look like an idiot trying to avoid it

    I did want Lee to win though just becuase you know he would take the ggg fight

    Billy Joe Saunders is an honest man, admitting that GGG would steamroller him. At least he was man enough to admit it.

    I personally would like to see BJS try his hand at 154 sometime. He completely spanks Liam Smith.
     
  10. It's things like the above that make boxing a complete joke at times. How can anyone call him a world champ when we all know he'd be rendered unconscious by GGG? He is a proper paper champ.

    We all saw the press conference with Eubank Jnr.

    'Golovkin would destroy you and me on the same night. How about that'

    He will wait for GGG to show signs of slowing down before he takes the fight.

    Chris Pyatt and Steve Collins similarly avoided McClellan.

    Eubank sayshe's willing to take on GGG, but i doubt he actually will. Plus he's not earnt the right to fight him
     
  14. Do you think it's acceptable someone who says the above is considered a world champ in our sport?

    No it isn't to be honest. It is why i wanted Lee to win as he will take his GGG beating like a man
