    Its supposed to be announced yesterday.
    Any word?

    I can't see what decent opponent he could get.

    Eubank has a fight
    Jacobs has a fight
    Canelo has a fight
    GGG has a fight
    Lemieux has a fight

    Who could his opponent be?

    The battle within, it's an internal conflict.

    Another case of a "world" title causing a boxer's career to all but stall completely when it comes to actually competing in the ring.

    Shame.

    It's probably someone from the UK... Another Euro level boxer to further pad his title defense record.

    Whilst I'm a fan of saunders the way he's conducted his career post Lee has been a massive let down.

    He's not even attempting to keep busy against lower tier ranked opponents.

    It could be, but I doubt he'd step in the ring next with GGG if he wins by knockout. Like I said he'd probably go after another Euro level guy in hopes that he might land that payday against Canelo.

    Though I'm feeling particularly grim about what to expect from BJS (whom I'm critical of because I would like to see more of the guy on the world stage), you may be right.
    This year has already surprised me a few times with unexpected match ups.

    We will hopefully see soon enough.
