      Cool, enough talk then. Sign the damn contract and get in the ring so we can see who is made of what. Be a man Saunders, don't be scared like the rest of 160 is; show them what courage is.

        So you think Hymen will allow his boxers to fight on HBO or that he won't want options on GGG? LOL, right.

          What BJS said about Golovkin beating both he and Eubank Jr on the same night was correct.

          GGG is not Liston. He has superb technical boxing skill, as well as the strength and power. His amateur record, 345 wins out of 350 fights, world championship winner and Olympic silver medalist tells the story on that.

          I like Billy, but he isn't ready for Golovkin yet.

          I'd rather see him fight Canelo first, if he gets a chance, and a good offer. At 160lbs, of course.

          Canelo is strong and looks awesome in head to head exchanges. But he can't cut the ring like GGG and he doesn't have GGG's crushing power.

          Billy might actually be able to beat Canelo, if he could keep moving the whole 12 rounds. But he wouldn't have a prayer against Golovkin right now.

            Honestly, I don't see where Team GGG is getting $6M from to offer Saunders. I think GGG made about $2M for Lemieux. And Lemieux made less than that. So unless GGG is fighting Saunders for next to nothing. Or, they convinced some ignorant investors to front the money, I'm calling bull**** on the $6M.

              GGG is the perfect fighting machine........with below average defense and can't fight worth **** on the inside or backing up.

                No way has Saunders been offered $6million to fight Golovkin!

                Loeffler probably told Warren and Billy they could have the entire UK PPV income if they took the fight, and Bill is letting his imagination run with that.

                If a fight catches the interest of British sports fans, they will pay to watch it. Froch vs Groves 2 made $22.5million on Sky PPV, and most of that was UK money.

                If it happened, BJS/GGG would be on Boxnation PPV in the UK. The kind of money Bill is talking about would not be impossible. But, by God, he'd have to work his socks off hyping the match between now and April.

                His mate Tyson Fury could probably give him a few tips there. Get himself a Spiderman outfit, maybe, then go over to Abel's gym and climb up on to the roof?

                  You couldn't tell the difference between a perfect fighting machine and a hole in the fucking ground.

                    So is the 6 million number coming somewhere other than where BJS said he'd get his face beat in for 6 million?

                      Frank Warren getting a bit carried away letting off steam about Eubank Sr. He doesn't like him too much.
