    Don't know if he can beat Lemieux, one mistake and he will get knocked out! El Pollo wants to fight the winner, does not want a rematch with Golovkin..............

    He deffo should get a wide points win, but as you say, he can't afford to switch off for a second. Or gas out.

    Who's El Pollo?

    Just realised who El Pollo is. Yeah, BJS against him or GGG (if he beats Lemieux) could and should be next.

    Whatever you say about Saunders he is not stupid.The guy is still undefeated and i'm sure picks his opponents very carefully.I wouldnT expect fireworks but i think Saunders will cruise to a UD.

    Saunders could have had a big money fight with Golovkin and should have taken the big money...................anyone know how much money he will get for the Lemieux fight?

    Interesting that Canelo is going to be at the Belfast card? Frank to have a word with him about BJS?

    I think Saunders will have to be impressive to get the UD in Lemieux's back yard. If he fights on the back foot throwing a few punches a round with Lemieux as the aggressor, he's asking to be on the wrong end of a bad (Golden Boy) decision.

    Good boxer, unpleasant character.
    Give me the furyous one any day of the week.

    Saunders is underrated, technically sound and a good counter puncher. He is not an exciting boxer, gets the job done that's all it matters to him I believe. He is better skilled than lemieux and should win a split decision - away from home I dont expect a UD.

    It's a Golden Boy Promotion mate i doubt he will get even more than 3 rounds if it goes to Points.I hate De La Hoya so boring it's unbelievable.Give me Hearn or Warren any day of the week even Hennesey.

    Agreed, DLH is one of the worst out there. He is almost as senile as a 104 year old Bob Arum.

    What a shame as he was one of my favourites as a fighter.

    I doubt the fight will happen. It's just too risky, BJS will need to win 20 rounds out of 12 to get the decision there. If he loses then the GGG fight goes up in smoke. Expect an 'injury' in training camp soon enough.

    I notice BJS is looking in fantastic shape for this fight. It seems that he’s finally looking after himself. He can focus on sharpening his boxing skills instead of burning off the fat. Lemieux isn’t going to lay a glove on him.
