    Agree BJS just needs to fight someone. Anyone. I don't think we'll see Quillin at middleweight again though. Jacobs would be a great fight.

    Agreed! Rafael sits on his morbidly obese **** questioning the courage of world champion boxers. About time he got a bit of return fire.

    Lots of relatively easy fights in the WBO Rankings- why not fight a Rob Brant or a Trevor McCumby to tick over?

    Having previously seen an interview with BJS banging on about ****, I won't bother clicking on another one.
    So far in 2016, Saunders has not boxed, pulled out of a fight with the world no.46 and turned down other offers. Good boxing journalists should highlight this.

    Fat boy has been re-tweeting all of Rosado's tweets though. And fan tweets slating Saunders. There's nothing wrong with Billy Joe giving him some back.

    Watch Dan Rafael's timeline from time to time. He disrespects boxers every week. It's not the same as us slating boxers here. He makes a living from these boxers risking their lives and he also is on a huge platform. If he says Saunders is a coward and a nobody, all of the American fans who haven't seen him are going to think that too. It arguably impacts on Saunders' commercial value.

    If someone wants the hostage they better pay the ransom.

    How can you squeeze the world no.46 Max Bursak into this bad metaphor?

    Morning Bill!

    Makes me laugh this does.

    BJS isn't popular, his style isn't fan friendly, he won't face the best...

    Again, just another "champ" that is everything that is wrong with boxing.

    Amazingly talented, but he's with the likes of Brook/Wilder/Garcia now.

    No excuse for turning down Stevens, Rosado and Monroe Jr.

    Clearly doesn't wanna risk losing the belt before his money right with Canelo.

    He'll probably turn that fight down too...

    Whilst Rosado doesn't deserve the opportunities he's been given, imo BJS would of handled him easily, gotten good exposure and picked up a decent payday.

    As a fan of BJS I cannot see the reason not to take the fight, especially if they have the Canelo carrot dangling as I think BJS beats Canelo aswell.

    Canelo won't take that fight, I don't know why people are talking about it. It's obvious that him and Oscar are using it as an excuse not to fight GGG.

    Canelo will continue to fight at 154 or 155 lol and face welters coming up or smaller guys at 154.

    He won't face anyone at 160.
