    from Hearn’s interview, he said he’s confident Saunders will be mandatory for Andrade - very interesting.

    I think it's likely, partly because Saunders as well as being the former champ and highly ranked is a Warren fighter and Frank's links with WBO are longstanding. Secondly, when he vacated there was a statement about him doing it for the best interests of the WBO and it felt like a deal had been struck behind closed doors. 'You go now Billy Jo, stop this bad publicity and in 6 months time we'll rerank you and you can have a mandatory status against Andrade.'

    Has there been any sign of the mooted lawsuit or is that quietly going to be allowed to wither?

    I hope Golovkin vs Andrade happens before that.
