Comments Thread For: Gennady Golovkin Willing to Face Billy Joe Saunders in The UK?

GGG a communist has zero bargaining power and few fans

GGG has few options as there is no need for Golovkin in the USA. A UK fight with BJ is probably the best option for the GGG at this time. Jacobs ain't fighting GGG till forced to. Canelo doesn't need or want a GGG fight. Ward is moving up in weight and no one cares about Ward either. Might as well pay BJ good money to get destroyed and become another George Groves.

How well would Golovkin/Saunders do in London? Would it sell out O2 and be ppv?

I wouldn't have thought so. If either Eubank jr or Lee had beaten BJS and were holding the title right now Vs Golovkin, you could make a case for a PPV and that it'd do ok at the o2. BJS just isn't that famous or charismatic enough to carry a promotion. I think it'd be a flop especially with Warren promoting, he's fallen behind massively and is surely on the way out.

I'd imagine there could possibly be more brit GGG fans than BJS fans in attendance if he did make his way over to these shores.

When Loeffler announced (few days ago) that they put a hold on MSG, Saunders immediately took the bait and called the fight in the U.K... Now Loeffler just said it's OK in London...

the pot would surely be a lot smaller in the UK. HBO aren't going to pay full price for an afternoon fight/delayed broadcast and the sky sports hype machine won't get behind a frank warren event. saunders is not a big draw over here. that being said, i hope they find a way to make it work. as a british golovkin fan it'd be a privilege to see him over here. can't remember the last time we had an international star of that magnitude fight on these shores

It would if Hearn/Sky was promoting it, unfortunately it's Warren/BoxNation.

Everything about Warren's cards seems to go wrong, fighters always pull out and the fans can't even get to the toilets.

I'm just in favor of making the fight happen, even if it's like one of Golovkin's Monaco cards.

Doesn't care who he fights and where, as long it's not that good of a fighter.

yeah, the nerve of the guy, wanting to unify the titles.

There really is no limit to the level of your douchebaggery, is there?

I fear Billy would be taken to bits and never be the same .I would rather see him fight Eubank again and maybe even a third fight , he should leave GGG alone as GGG ruins fighters.

Canelo vs BJ and or jacobs is a better option not GGG

BJ and Canelo and even Jacobs should just ignore that GGG and all that c0mmie hype job GGG brings with him. Jacobs and BJ are also there for fights that would bring the popular Canelo the same type of cash. Screw GGG and all the c0mmie baggage and atheist stuff. Let freedom ring and the UK and USA and Mexico sing-off key> Belts hold up pants. Titles bring cash if done right.
