They did but Saunders got a nasty cut so the fight is now postponed fully. Lee will likely fight Golovkin next and Saunders will have lost his chance
No way. I was really looking forward to this one. U thought they said it would be resheduled? Why would Lee jump into a fight with GGG just yet. He should make a bit of money first.
Well dang, so the fight is basically off? Woohoo! Now Saunders won't have the chance to hold the WBO hostage.
The original date and location was moved because it wasn't seeling in Ireland but didn't some UK people say there were PPV and general lack of interest issues too? BJ has outright stated he'll hold the belt hostage and won't fight GGG for a few years so i hope the fight doesn't even happen. He can enter into the Quillin/Jacobs circle jerk where no one intends on fighting the best of the division.
I'm really hoping they rescheduled because I was really looking forward to this match, so rarely do you get a match where you truly no idea of the outcome.
Lee has been given an offer to good to refuse by GGG and BJS has been given an offer to good to refuse next year..GGG and k2 keeping everyone happy...
Last I heard it wasn't cancelled. Meanwhile Eubank signed with Hearn and he'll have 2 fights in October and December with opponents TBA and October fight likely to be a tune up. I hope they get a good opponent for him for the Joshua vs Whyte undercard. I wouldn't mind a BJS vs Eubank rematch or Lee vs Eubank if Lee vs BJS isn't going anywhere.
Adam Booth is going to be training Eubank Jnr so a fight between him and Lee won't be happening any time soon.
