    It all depends on Saunders' conditioning. If he has the conditioning to perform well for 7 rounds, he wins 7 rounds clearly.

    I believe Billy joe will be up for this one and as has already been said a motivated and 100% fit Saunders will be to much for khurt.

    Mini Mike Tyson vs Fast, talented British southpaw. Sounds familiar.

    I hope so.

    I'm a big fan of Khurtsidze and will be rooting for him. But don't think he can take a 100% BJS even at his best.

    This is my view. Also, I think that a <100% BJS wins a decision, probably a controversial one.

    I think that even a <100% Saunders is too good for Khurtsidze.

    I wouldn't be surprised if it turns out that Khurtsidze has the best chin in boxing. There's no way that a man with his physique will go down easily. He's probably also immune to body shots with all that muscle. If nothing else works he should just try to "Margarito" BJS and walk him down and unleash his shots.

    Lol why not,only got onto him by looking at YouTube but I liked what I saw.

    I expect Saunders to win but if the wee man can get to him he could finish it

    Saunders might pull out a decision win, esp. if the fight is in UK.............
