    Two British Undefeated World Champions unifying against eachother? Has that even ever happened before?

    I am not saying I would pay for it but in this market it's obviously gonna be PPV

    I’d pick Saunders to make the big lanky scouse giraffe look silly for twelve rounds.

    Joe Gallagher won’t let Callum molasses anywhere near a slick star like bjs surely

    Can’t see sky allowing it. Probably a counter offer pending.

    I don’t have a problem with it being PPV. It’s two elite fighters who are world champions.

    Quigg - Frampton? But not sure if it was a PPV.

    Jesus, Frank is really trying to put the boots into Hearn.
    Eddie can’t let it happen, he badly needs Smith - Expect him to push to get Ryder to accept the offer to fight
    Saunders pretty quick.

    Brilliant fight if it happened, a score for this no bother at all.

    A score to watch Whyte totally different thing.

    Brilliant. Fingers crossed this comes together. An absolute barnstormer of a British fight which would be a fantastic win for either. You'd have to favour Smith because of his size but he'll find it tremendously hard to hit Billy. I love the matchup.

    I think Billy Joe would outbox him over twelve rounds quite convincingly, Smith doesn't through enough punches obviously he has a punchers chance but Saunders also has a great chin

    I think that sums it up for me. I think Smith's best chance would probably from a body shot.

    Hearn always says he doesn't stand in the way of his fighters making a big payday so let's see if that's true.

    As someone else mentioned, I can see Sky making an offer too. They'll be looking for some more PPV-worthy fights (that's not me saying it's PPV-worthy btw!) as they're way behind how many they like doing each year.

    Massive fight and fantastic match up. As long as it had a strong undercard, I wouldn't complain too much about this being a PPV. Can't pick a winner either, which is a sure sign of a good match up.
