Comments Thread For: Saunders: I Want Golovkin Next, Give Me a Date - I'll Accept!

Well, there goes GGG vs. Jacobs, unless Saunders is only doing this knowing that GGG will not vacate his WBA belt. I doubt the WBA will force the fight with Jacobs if GGG can get a unification bout with Saunders!

They have 120 days to fight according to the WBA , so Jacobs vs GGG don;t have to be next

That $#!t sounded real. If he put on his big bwoy boxers maybe we get an undisputed champ for real.

Am i being naive believing this?
I hope BJS really is game. GGG Vs BJS, then Jacobs sounds ok to me.

no.

translation = i know i have to chime in and say something as opposed to silence, the only way im getting in a ring with you is if you pay me a ridiculous amount of money to hand over my belt.

If Saunders signs a contract, GGG is fighting him in the UK. Since the WBA didn't sanction last night's fight, I could see GGG vacating the WBA belt as payback! Anyway, we won't see GGG fighting both Saunders and Jacobs within 120 days!

Of course he does now that Jacobs is the mandatory.

Please GGG: offer to fight BJS for the October date! Seriously, it's not like GGG can't be ready for it, and it would give BJS a little extra confidence thinking that GGG didn't get enough recuperation time between his fights. This could be brilliant, but Team GGG have to be willing to make almost no money for this one, and ensure BJS gets about $2M to $2.5M. It's worth it for that belt. It's ****** of me to get optimistic about boxing of all things, but this could go a long way in salvaging a lackluster 2016 for boxing.

Calling out GGG from his caravan!?

that is a boat.

Unification trumps a mandatory within the WBA. Sturm was mandated to defend vs Golovkin and instead fought a unification with Geale.

Golovkin can fight Saunders, keep his belt, then fight Jacobs early next year.

GGG will give up the WBA super belt to fight BJS then comeback to fight Jacobs (If he beats BJS) to get his belt back that how I see now if BJS is really down to fight him next

I don't think Jacobs or BJS will end up being next, but I hope I'm wrong & I hope its BJS of the two of them.
