So.... is Saunders going to look for a new opponent now?

WHAT! Where have you been hiding for the last 2 years? Work, school, family situations? Work, just chilling to. I'm mostly on twitter now. I see some of the discussions on here and I'm like damn.... I still watch boxing, just mostly talk on twitter now

Avtandil Khurtsidze confirmed as one of the persons arrested in NY as part of a Russian crime syndicate— Danny Winterbottom (@Hitmandann) June 8, 2017 https://www.justice.gov/usao-sdny/pr/members-and-associates-russian-crime-syndicate-arrested-racketeering-extortion-robbery https://pbs.twimg.com/media/DBzXDqyXYAE3V52.jpg https://pbs.twimg.com/media/DBzXNY7WAAAelBP.jpgWHAT!

And if Canelo gets beat and doesn't want the immediate rematch he can still fight Lemieux for the WBO in May. Said yesterday Golovkin aint getting near that WBO belt, blew his chance for all the belts Yeah that make sense as well!

definitely off charged with RICO conspiracy and conspiracy to commit wire fraud

Canelo winning the WBO 154 belt last year. WBO per their rules gives WBO champs in other divisions top ranking when they move weight granting them a high ranking Super champion status. This allows them the option to cut the line and fight for the title right away if they want. Nice rule. -_- Thank you clarifying that.

When and how did Canelo become super champion? LOL wtf Canelo winning the WBO 154 belt last year. WBO per their rules gives WBO champs in other divisions top ranking when they move weight granting them a high ranking Super champion status. This allows them the option to cut the line and fight for the title right away if they want. Canelo is obviously occupied with GGG so if WBO enforces a mandatory before then it looks to be Lemiuex next in line.

That's actually a better fight IMO then this fight.

Fight Lemiuiex... on the Canelo/GEE undercard That would be awesome.

DAMN just when he was getting ready to fight for a World Championship! Hopefully he is able to clear his name if Possible and get back to boxing! Since the WBO been Kissing Up to Oscar and GBP lately, I think Lemieux gets that shot if he wants it! If Canelo wins then GBP would be in a GREAT POSITION to comeback with big fight for Canelo in May for a Unification Bout! And if Canelo gets beat and doesn't want the immediate rematch he can still fight Lemieux for the WBO in May. Said yesterday Golovkin aint getting near that WBO belt, blew his chance for all the belts

I dont see how. Fight was going to be overseas and I guarantee you one of the bail restrictions will be that he had to surrender his passport and remain in NY...... Edit: Im still waiting though for someone to post that Saunders snitched on him so he could duck the fight lol :lol1::lol1::lol1:

Does this make him a thug?

https://www.boxingscene.com/forums/showthread.php?t=748369 So it actually was him lol. One of the Russian users on here (could've been that g27 dude) has mentioned couple of months ago something about Khurtsidze having ties with the Russian Mafia but I thought he was just talking out of his ass...lol. As for BJS, since Canelo and GGG are fighting in September, it would of course be perfect if he fought Danny Jacobs, but he'll probably fight some journeyman again and then try to secure a fight against Canelo/GGG winner. I think g27 said yesterday he was Asian or something. But that's crazy af. Why is a black man connected to the Russian mafia? :lol1:

It's boxing, I'm sure it will still happen somehow. I dont see how. Fight was going to be overseas and I guarantee you one of the bail restrictions will be that he had to surrender his passport and remain in NY......

What's a crazy black man doing in the Russian Mafia?

Fight Lemiuiex... on the Canelo/GEE undercard

Warrens released a statement, sounds like Saunders is off the date, gunna wait and see what happens https://www.frankwarren.com/saunders-v-khurtsidze-statement/

Well Saunders can fight Jacobs now if this falls through. Probably not, though. Definately not happening....
