    He makes Glen Johnson look like Sven Ottke. Andre ''SOG Road Warrior'' Ward.

    Why does that constitute a question mark over Ward?

    what Team Saunders is actually furious about is they have to fight someone who can fight back instead of cashing out with Canelo.

    Saunders is garbage. Easy work for Lemieux.

    5/10of his World Title Fights were in his hometown and the 5 that weren't were in USA against foreign fighters... Go figure.

    Lemieux had to take all his clothes off, .2? No big deal, I've seen it happen many times..................I have a feeling that Lemieux might knock Saunders out, esp. if Saunders has not improved from his last fight..................he did beat Eubank, Jr., but Eubank ran from Golovkin...........

    50-50 fights I think.
    If Lemieux can lay some heavy leather on Saunders we have a fight. I hope we don't get to see boring decision.

    Saunders should shut up and focus on the job.

    I kinda like both fighters but none of them are my favorite fighter if that makes sense at all , but even if Lemi comes at 250 lbs he will just gas in 3-4 rounds like he does usually , the man is 4 round fighter as B-hop used to say for Pascal , it very much applies for Lemi as well .Awful stamina.

    Some will say that BJS has bad stamina as well but i never seen him getting stopped or knocked down just because he is totally gassed.BJS is taking some rounds off usually but never been in any real danger , Lemi is dangerous for the first couple of rounds then absolutely nothing , BJS will win wide UD and will be very boring fight sadly.

    That's right. On paper Ward has a superb resume and based on his paper resume should be ATG level. BUT in reality we know many of his wins were tainted with home town favouritism, nutcracking, heatbutting and general questionable tactics.

    A fine fighter but yes a massive question marks over his status.

    No longer the case. Klitchko, AJ and many others have had massive fights outside the US.

    This is why I don't think Saunders has much of a chance. He's used to have the cards stacked in his favor in every single of his bigger fights he was in, and still he had a couple of close calls. Now he's fighting in his opponent's backyard, against probably the best fighter he has been in with and certainly the hardest hitter, fighting against a GBP approved referee and judges as well, without a dehydration clause.

    If it's Lee, Jr or even Arkavov kinda close it's unlikely he'll get the nod. I think he will have to thank the boxing gods on his knees if he gets out of there with a draw.
