Police are investigating a video which appears to show world boxing champion Billy Joe Saunders offering a woman drugs.
The footage shows the boxer inside a Rolls Royce encouraging a woman to punch a passer-by and perform a sex act on his friend in exchange for "crack".
A Nottinghamshire Police spokesperson said it is aware of the "sickening" video and a full investigation will be carried out.
The 29-year-old boxer has apologised.
What an idiot. Never liked his personality. Oh, damn, already posted. Please delete
Are you trying to insinuate that a certain groupe of people hold Billy joe on a higher moral pedestal than Davis based on something completely out of davis's control like his skin color?
I'm saying NSB has a bunch of people that get excited when someone like Davis does something stupid and they post in droves when this happens.
When a guy like Saunders does something similar these same posters are no where to be found.
Why they do this-well let's not speculate.
This thread will not get as many responses as the Gervonta thread about him getting arrested.

After she hits the passer-by, the boxer tells her the man is not a paedophile and then drives off with his friends laughing.
Calls an innocent bystander a pedo for "lols", gets the man hit and then drives off. What an a££hole.
I'm sorry but none of that is remotely funny IMO. But this is a guy who told his son to punch his opponent at a weigh in so it isn't surprising either.
- we all do daft stuff, difference is that Billy Joe is in the limelight, and people expect him to be more responsible
- Billy Joe is not all bad, just look on his Instagram, he has helped raise awareness for Charlie's Chapter (good cause, btw)
- Billy Joe has apologised for any offence caused
- We can't complain about boxers being media puppets, and then also complain when they do stupid *****; Billy Joe is a bit juvenile, but mostly v funny
He's just posted a picture of him standing on his new Rolls Royce while parked in a disabled parking spot.
I hope he gets banned because he thinks he's invincible.
And this is coming from a massive fan of BJS the boxer.
The BBBoC can remove his licence to box at worst, give him a warning or fine him.
If the first one happens kiss goodbye to the Andrade fight.
Edit: it's worth noting that BJS has already received warnings and fines previously... so don't be surprised to see him suspended.
Lol if they suspend this only messes up the fight and screws Hearns not Warren, let him fight and when he losses suspend him.
I still laugh when i see the video,
won't matter if he's fighting in America.
Haye and Chisora still fought in the UK while suspended by BBBoC.
That depends on the commission in America and whether they enforce bans from other commissions. I believe the licence will be a problem in America.
I don't believe he will get a licence to fight in America if he is unlicensed and suspended by the BBBoC.

Thx for the reply.
Wow, that sucks. I mean, I'm all for appropriate measures. I did want to see the Andrade fight so it sucks in that regard.
He's been up numerous times for social-media violations already. He was warned for a transphobic tweet, and was fined £2000 before the Lemioux fight.

I can't see him getting away with this without a suspension. It's happening too many times.

I think bjs would just get a different license to fight. Bbobc need to concentrate on their role of protecting the boxers. We've had a few deaths in the past few years with no noticeable change implemented by the bbobc. If they cant prioritise & instead focus on bjs playing daft then the questions need to be asked;
what do the bbobc do & what value do they offer to the sport?
