    depends which BJS shows up... if its top shape Bjs then I think he beats Monroe probably easy Ud. but if its the same Bjs as his last fight.. well then I leaning towards Monroe. Bjs looked terrible last time out.

    BJS said this himself but I think the call of a canelo/GGG fight will be to strong to let BJS fail. He wants a big payday to check & retire before a Eubanks finale.

    Your worst thread ever, and that's saying a lot.

    Willie won't win a round. Might not even see the final bell.

    BJS blows. Gets blasted out by Lemiuex, Derevyanckenko, Jacobs, GGG, N'Dam, Khurtsidze. He's had a decent win against Andy Lee. Maybe even Stevens blasts him out. Saunders has no power, his stamina ****ing terrible. A 50 year old could sustain a better workrate than him.

    Couldn't disagree more, you're underrating the hell out of BJS, which happens a lot on this site, stylistically an in shape on form BJS is a nightmare for most MW's including some of the guys you listed. Stevens, N'Dam, Khurtsidze all get outclassed, Jacobs, Lemieux and Derevyanchenko pick 'em, the fight against GGG, I always thought would be competitive, after the recent Jacobs performance, I think I might be right, but still pick GGG to win.

    I'm also a little influenced by his statement when he said "GGG stops me and Eubank on the same night". He didn't even think he had a chance. So why should we? Obviously GGG is not Monroe, but Monroe is a slick moving southpaw. That style can sometimes give the top guys fits.

    I thought that too, and still do, although I'm not as convinced of a GGG stoppage win as I was before. Willie is a tricky southpaw with no power, Andy Lee is a tricky southpaw with savage KO power, BJS will beat him even more convincingly than he did Andy, because he won't have to fear his power.

    Speed doesn't equate to slicknes. Monroe is faster on his feet, but Saunders is The slick one of the two.

    Monroe has already lost to Golvokin and Saunders has been running from Golovkin for a long time now. Golovkin will knock Saunders out if they were to ever fight, Golovkin has wanted that fight for years..............
