Comments Thread For: Saunders Would Love To Waste Eubank Jr. in Six Rounds

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Unbeaten middleweight Billy Joe Saunders continues to edge ever closer to his dream of becoming the first of travelling stock to win a boxing world title.

A 2008 Beijing Olympian at the age of just 18, the brilliant Hatfield southpaw has already cruised to Southern Area, Commonwealth, British and Intercontinental honours as a pro.

And collecting the European title against unbeaten Italian Emanuele Blandamura at Manchester’s Phones 4u Arena this Saturday (26th July), on the undercard of Tyson Fury v Alexander Ustinov, could provide the ideal dry run to a world title challenge, for the man already ranked number one in the WBO rankings.

If Saunders or Fury win a title this year, we'll have the first Nebraskan world champion (Crawford), the first Haitian world heavyweight champion (Stiverne), and the first Traveler world champion, all in the same year.

May I add the first ever Peruvian World Champion Alberto Rossel who was elevated from interim to full WBA Light Flyweight World Champion recently.

Billy Joe lacks the power to get to the top he hasn't fought in almost a year and his last 4 fights all went the full 12 rounds against British and European level opponents - he only fought three times last year but suffers from burn out - I wonder why because he gets dragged into 12 round fights against opponents he should be stopping - he hasn't beaten anyone in the top 15 and I think he will be exposed when he steps up, and again his opponent on Saturday is another European level opponent. By looking at young up coming fighters from the Uk in the Middleweight division my money is on Eubank Jr to go the furthest and I think in my humble opinion would stop Billy Joe late on or win by wide UD.
