    Having 4 belts probably has helped fighters with less opportunities get recognition.
    You would have possibly liked some of the older threads I did on hype jobs and how hype had to be called before it happened and sure enough...

    I hope they both come out looking good I like them both, but I think BJS will edge it.

    Its a fascinating match up.
    I credit Saunders for taking a fight he didnt have to, but wont be shocked if Eubank jnr looks very impressive and beats him

    With the Groves/Degale fight, we had 2 prospects where the fans got the best thing, in that it was a close debateable fight and after we still had 2 excellent prospects, rather than a blast out and only one prospect

    He is. But as far as I can tell, he is retired.

    Do you think the European title should be ahead of the world titles with this in mind?

    Andre Ward is still ranked #1 by the best ranking system out there, TBR.

    Adonis Stevenson is still ranked as the best LHW according to them.

    Sergei Kovalev is from Russia which is on the continent of Asia, not Europe.

    TBR also lists Cotto as the #1 MW, not Gennady Golovkin who is from Kazakhstan which is on the continent of Asia, not Europe.

    This was a very poorly thought of thread with the sole intent of pushing agenda and trolling for responses.

    Failey,

    Sergio Kovalev is from Chelyabinsk, Russia which lies in the ASIAN continent. Only a quarter of Russia is considered part of Europe, but
    Chelyabinsk (and hence Kovalev) is NOT part of that region.

    And to put you in further fail, Kovalev LIVES AND TRAINS in Florida, USA, and is on his way to becoming a US citizen.

    And to put further salt on your wounds, he has an American trainer. In fact, the majority of successful fighters from the former Soviet block are successful due to fact they utilize American trainers.

    Now ain't that a ***** on your obvious troll agenda, Failey?
