    *unification fight
    *both matchroom fighters
    * bestest money at 168(bar Canelo)
    * best win of either's career
    * why are both sides blatantly avoiding talk of it?
    * why aren't the boxing media pushing it?

    I'm not being funny but what the f**k is going on?

    You never hear the end of Khan v brook(past prime and shot) yet there's no clamour for these two to grow a pair.

    Does this have anything to do with Barry Hearns name and number being in Epstein’s little black book, and Barry’s subsequent-completely coincidental- heart attack?

    What’s the hold up? Well a global pandemic and both of them trying to get the canelo fight.

    I cant be alone in not really caring about seeing this fight? If it was on and I was in I would watch it but I wouldn't get hyped for it.

    Not much interest is what's holding it up. They're gonna want big money and they both aren't big draws in their own right. There also isn't an intense rivalry to drum up interest either

    Think it would be a decent fight. Build up could potentially be good especially if Saunders is at his dislikable best although still would like to see him in with canelo first.

    there's obviously no interest for it on a Brit forum..which is baffling imo.

    Think the styles would be interesting!! who wins????
    I’m going for Saunders, I’m a big fan of his talent, I do understand the criticism of him but I think smith is struggling with the weight and Saunders simply to clever
