Comments Thread For: Frank Warren Will Announce Billy Joe Saunders' Next Fight Monday

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Promoter Frank Warren said during a Liam Smith conference call Thursday that he'll announce Billy Joe Saunders' next fight Monday. England's Saunders (23-0, 12 KOs) hasn't fought since he won the WBO middleweight title from fellow Brit Andy Lee (34-3-1, 24 KOs) by majority decision December 19 in Manchester. The spunky southpaw has spent an ample amount of time since winning that 160-pound championship engaging in cringe-worthy social media exchanges regarding several potential opponents Saunders has not agreed to fight for various undisclosed reasons.

Warren has some of the whackest belt holders out of Britain

Hearn got almost all the good names while Frank Warren has BJS, Liam Smith and Flanagan, lmao... Neither one of them makes a case for being the best fighter in their respective weight class

Safe bet on who it ISN'T: GGG.

Charlo, Curtis Stevens, Quillin, Andrade?

I really like BJS, but I foresee a bs opponent although hoping I'm wrong. The guy is in my eyes the sleeper of the division, but he wants to get paid yesterday instead of thinking he's gonna need to beat better guys than Eubank & Lee to get there.

what are the odds that it will be Artur Akavov?

So the Saunders opponent is supposed to be someone big deal enough we would want to see a rematch? Ok probably totally BS, but if it's not, who could it be? Cotto or Tim Bradley? Desert Storm as the third welterweight/middleweight this year would be pretty amazing.

Almost without a doubt going to be Akavov in my mind. Saunders is a real ***** and even more so if he picks this dude

Charlo, Curtis Stevens, Quillin, Andrade?

Nah. It will be "insert random domestic bum here".
