    As a fan of both Spike, and BJS, last night was thoroughly enjoyable. Spike looked up against it, facing a classy young opponent who was supposed to beat him. But sheer determination, complimented by toughness, strength and a good shot selection, broke the will of the young opponent. The 4th round was the turning point, I saw something whither in the kid, as Spike pressed forward. I was delighted for him when he got the stoppage, hope he gets a good payday.

    BJS was out of this world. I've rarely seen such a punch perfect performance. It's no exaggeration to say he looked like a prime Floyd Mayweather. Lemieux is a world class fighter, and BJS won every round. David didn't land more than five significant blows in the fight. The footwork, distance control, shot selection, gas tank - all majestic.

    I always knew Billy could be an elite fighter, but he showed me last night that he can be the king of the middleweight division. GGG on the decline, Canelo too flat-footed. Jacobs would be the toughest opponent I believe, though Billy can beat him. Don't forget that at 28, with his new found disciplinen and being trained by Ingle, we're yet to see the best of Billy.

    A great night to be a fan of both, and delighted Billy's outstanding ability is finally being appreciated.

    I think he beats the others but I still think golovkin is the only fighter to beat him unlike last night he will cut the ring off and make Saunders work every round for the full round

    need to see the Spike KO of the yank but Saunders looked brilliant, one of the best performances of a Brit abroad in recent years.
