    Billyhoe using Tyson antics v vald I'm a fat man I'll beat you rah rah rah
    Billyhoe seems a little unhinged desperate for attention

    Khurtsidze is ancient, slow and very limited - so barring a major upset, an in-shape Billy should UD him with relative ease, barring a few scary moments along the way. Pretty meaningless win though -Khurtsidze is well past his best. Even if Bill wins - so what?

    He's mandatory I think, so doesn't matter if Khurtsidze isn't great, he needs to keep that belt!

    Watch this vid seems an injury could be on the cards before 8th July, will he get stripped if he pulls out?

    Saunders should beat Khurtsidze comfortably but Khurtsidze can dig and shouldn't be over looked or disrespected.

    Definitely got a shot on him

    Imo that lAngford stoppage was coming, Langford was getting hit early and he seemed a bit off kilter to me

    I'd say his best career win came two fights ago, so not sure how accurate 'well past his best' really is.

    All the same, Saunders should deal with him easily enough. My only concern would be the later rounds where Saunders is notorious for slowing. He's got good whiskers though, so should be fine

    Yes I know paddy. It's a funny one really, but if you look back at him from a few years ago he seemed a lot sharper ....like against HNN.....if sharp is a word you can use for AK. Really he was very very crude against Langford...and he is about 37 too. But he is very strong and can dig. Way stronger and harder punching than BJS.

    The later rounds might get interesting if bjs can't keep AK off him!

    If its the same BJS from the Akavov fight then he has his hands full. If it is BJS at his best then he should have too much. This fight all depends on BJS motivation.

    Boximg, just like a lot of other things in life is about levels.
    Langford is a lvl or 2 below khurts and although sometimes a boxer can make the necessary step up in a fight it was too soon for langford.
    Bjs on the other hand is a world lvl boxer whos skills are match enough for all styles.
    The only thing with Bill is that he doesnt live the life and only seems to do it all right when he smells danger.
    Lets hope hes on the ball for this one otherwise he could be taking his first L.
    As has been mentioned, it all deoends which bjs turns up

    Billy Joe Saunders should soundly beat him if not stop him. As long as he shows him respect and trains hard for it.
