    Billy Joe's stock plummeted tonight. he now has 3 very close decisions out of his last 4 bouts, and the only clear win was against a guy with a losing record.

    Very true. I've had plenty of bad nights too.

    Let's hope next Saturday isn't one of them, I badly want Parker to beat Ruiz Jr.

    Saunders needs to cash out in his next fight. Plenty average guys will have watched that rubbish and licked their lips hoping for a call from Warren.

    Khurtsidze is the mandatory, and I give him an excellent chance of beating BJS ...

    To win, BJS has to get back to his best form, and I'm not sure that will necessarily be enough, he always seems to take 5/12 rounds off (e.g. against Lee/Eubank). Which means he'd have to win the other seven to beat Khurtsidze as he's not a great puncher.

    He'd be better off to fight GGG or Canelo for a couple of million quid.

    Hey it happens although that's not the BJS that's had us buzzing in the past was it,I did fear this could happen,only an idiot would try and pull off what Mayweather does,let's hope he takes it serious from now on or else his career is finished,they say in all combat sports that if you're not in the gym training you can bet you're ass your competition is.

    There are about 7 billion people on this planet. I'm pretty sure that as of right now, not one of them can weigh 160lbs on a Friday and beat Gennady Golovkin on Saturday. Not one.

    He didn't take any rounds off against CEJ he just wasn't winning them.

    CEJ was robbed and that was with him not throwing a punch in the first few rounds

    He did make a statement.He once again showed how limited he is.Someone like GGG would murder him . Saunders is a very weak champ and will be dethroned as soon as he fights a better name.He for sure doesnt deserve a shot at Canelo or GGG!

    CEJ got his ass schooled and run from the rematch, deal with it.

    Talented as BJS is he's letting himself down by not living the life of an athlete.

    He was very lucky last night, I think any of the top 10 at 160 would have beaten him last night. Warren needs to keep him active.

    This, He showed his talent for a couple of very brief moments in the fight, But he doesn't put in the work year round in the gym. This is why i have so much respect for may weather, Nobody worked harder than him.

    Very true and whilst I don't ever think BJS beats Golovkin, it would be a shame if he does lose to fighters who don't have his skill set yet are more dedicated to their craft.
