Ahhhh - how convenient - no there is no summer fight with Golovkin - sheesh

Fake injury possibly?

If you believe Warren, then he said in his IFL TV interview that Wembley had been reserved for Fury v Klitschko and Eubank v Saunders double bill but now those fights have had to be split.

So it seems Saunders v Eubank is in the works for this summer if what he says is true. Say that happened June or July, it wouldn't give much Saunders much rest after April 30, he'd be straight back into camp. Maybe they thought it's better he pulls out and just starts training for Eubank Jr.

Wasn't exactly looking forward to it anyway.

First thing I thought upon hearing this news and after I watched the Warren interview last night.

Either that or Warren fighters are the most injury prone in the entire sport.

It definitely needs a rematch, BJS and Jr can't shut up about each other.
Though saying that I think they are rivals/enemies for life now, regardless of how many times they fight.

Yeah, think that fight needs to happen this summer before it loses appeal.

There's a world title on the line now from Saunders' end and Eubank had a lot of publicity recently and was in the public eye, everyone was talking about the Eubank v Blackwell fight with it being on channel 5, a good fight and obviously what happened to Blackwell. I know it's not great to capitalise on the exposure gained from something that bad happening but it's business so they will strike while the iron is hot.

Dammit, I was going to this.

I don't believe it's a fake injury. This was a good opportunity for Saunders to keep momentum going and improve before any fight with Eubank or Golovkin. Getting rounds in actual fights is important for staying sharp. I don't see why he would duck Bursak at all. The show will suffer for it and fans will be disappointed with no world title on the line.

The guy that Hughie is facing beat Breazeale and Arreola Imo. The only HW apart from Fury that I've seen switching stances as well. Hard to land clean on so will likely go to decision with Fury winning every round

Hopefully this means that Saunders will be fighting Danny Jacobs next! Hopefully Showtime will make it happen in 2016! It would be even better if the winner faced the winner of Canelo vs. GGG!

I don't think so either. He's had injuries before (most of 2013, and before the Lee fight), and would've got a guaranteed 12 rounds in with Bursak, who's proper durable. The last thing he wants is more inactivity.
