Obviuosly Andy wants it, BJS says he's willing, I reckon Frank ****** will prevent it though. Despite a great win for Saunders the other night Lee still provides a genuine threat, one that I think ****** will want to avoid. I feel it would be a far more explosive fight as Lee would have to force the issue.
without a decent undercard I just can't see them taking it as he will make FAR more money in a more prestigious and marketable fight, such as a Eubank rematch to dare I say it GGG
I had Saunder winning by 2 rounds and I am really pleased he did. It was a great win for him. I do however think that a rematch is now reasonable high risk with low reward for him. In comparrison to some other fights out there. take cotto for example. I do think this is a winnable fight for Saunders, and would be high reward in terms of name on his record. Think ****** will avoid the rematch.
Andy and his management were incredibly naieve. They gave up every advantage. They left no safety net in place if anything went wrong - and it did go wrong. due to ******s involvement the dice was horibly loaded in Billy Joes fvour all along. Andy must be fuming today.
He was beat clearly and that is down to him no one else. Whenever i see andy lee fight he seems to get out boxed and rely on his power even though he has size an reach he never uses it. I feel he should box better than he does
I think ****** sets up an easy first defence for Billy Joe Saunders -- much like he did for Liam Smith. Tommy Langford is rated number 6 with the WBO, and Kerry Hope is rated number 14 with the WBO. I expect Saunders' first defence will be against one of those two.
Why no point? Saunders only won one round convincingly and one judge scored it a draw. Surely the champion deserves another crack at it after that. Especially after fighting away from home.
Rematch could be a lot more exciting -Andy would attack from much earlier in the fight. Action guaranteed. Probably a ko either way!
This is what I think -- at least in the early stages of his reign. If what you say will happen -- and what I think will happen -- turn out to be ******'s plan for Saunders as World champion, any talk about facing GGG is all hot air and bluster on Saunders' part.
In time maybe, but Andy had 12 chances saturday night and Saunders now has his own agenda. That judge is generally regarded as being plain wrong, and my feeling is the same outcome would ensue as it so often does. No point at the moment other than for financial reasons I suppose..
