Would have beaten Rosado silly as well and raised his profile and could even have got in Canelo's face after his fight and start a little rivalry there but now he fights some unknown Latvian in front of one man and his dog
Have you heard his stories about when he was on GB duty? He admitted how much he messed around. He was very close to being sent home on a few occasions. In fact he told one of the stories to ifltv while he was in Marbella ... not in the 'gym', but clearly at some bar with pool tables in the background. He never gets himself into great shape, but he is a very talented fighter. I think he likes his comfortable life, earning enough money to go on jollies to places like Marbella and 'train'. Easy defences for decent money would suit him down to the ground. He has made it very clear he wants huge money if it means fighting GGG or another top fighter. He'll want enough to retire on. He strikes me as the kind of guy who would be clever with the money and not just **** it away.
Hilly joe has been a disappointment personally and professionally. He is lucky he met a fairly tame Andy Lee....if Andy had fought with a bit more passion it's possible he would have won. It's a shame but bjs has been a disappointment.
A joke champion. Holding the title hostage. In no position to criticise Eubank considering his not defended the title once vs anyone decent.
Golovkin wants to fight him ASAP, but I will not hold my breath................Saunders will never fight him............
What he's doing is simply with a few exceptions what they all do, it's the modern way. They get an alphabet belt, are hailed as "world champions" then milk the belt and defend against bums. Hardly any want to take fights with opponents who could actually beat them. BJS is no different.
Hilly Joe is undersized, underpowered and never in really top condition. Taking all the factors into account EVERY fight is high risk for him. He can't stop opponents...every single one goes 12. A lot can go wrong in 12 rounds.
his pulled out this joke of a fight, thats two fights in a row! he should go ahead and retire like his mate Fury if you can't be bothered to keep fight or get in the ring just hang it up.
Can't wait till the fight with canelo is made and he beats canelo, all these experts will jump back on the bandwagon saying I told you so I told you so.
I saw a photo of him about 2 or 3 weeks ago and said to a friend this fight won't happen he must have been 3 stone minimum over weight
Agreed. It'll be Fury v Wlad all over again. BJS is right, he beats Canelo every day of the week. Too slick, too smart, great chin and he has very fast hands (which nobody ever seems to mention).
BJS is an absolute clown. After seeing his conduct over the last year with fake injuries etc there is Zero chance the likes of GBP will risk a financial disaster by giving him a shot at Canelo on the lucrative May Cinyo De Mayo or September Mexican day dates only for this joke to pull out injuried. BJS would never fight Golovkin but even if he would GGGs people will probably also fcuk the fight off - to much financial risk with Saunders.
