Billy Joe Saunders to fight GGG?

[LacedUp]

Go to 6:00 where Frank Warren is introducing Tom Loeffler.

"Hopefully we'll be able to announce who he (GGG) is fighting next"

Thoughts?

Hopefully that happens.

I either wanna see GGG vs Jacobs or GGG vs BJS next. Or at least Jacobs vs BJS or something with GGG vs Canelo vs Jacobs vs BJS before the end of the year.

It seems like we should be figuring out who the man is at 160 these days as the gap between the top guys & the rest of the field seems to be wide so its time for the top guys to fight & the next guys to build up their names to fight these main guys in 2018 & beyond.

Saunders in November or December makes more sense than Jacobs or Eubank Jr, Eubank holds nothing but a name and a PPV fight Jacobs holds the fake WBA belt.

I hope they can get the WBO belt by December then next year we can see what happens whether it is Canelo/Jacobs/EubankJr

He basically has too, he's already a laughing stock in the boxing world, it just depends whether he asks for silly money or totally ridiculous money.
Either way he'll be payed to hand over his belt and he knows it.

This would be good news. BJS/GGG would be under a deadline to hurry up and make this fight happen due to the WBA deadline. Jacobs/Haymon could request an immediate purse-bid and then it would be too late.

All the belts in December, then Jacobs in March, Derevyanchenko/Johnson (IBF mando) in June in KZ, and Canelo in September.

Tyson Fury just posted this, sounding imminent!

It will take a Gypsy to beat this unbeatable GGG, that Gypsy is @bjsaunders_ Let's Bash another Kazak Both K2 aswell, #Gypsybrother ������

This could be the reason no BJS opponent has been announced, he might go straight to a November/December fight.

Lol!!!

I feel sorta bad for BJS he is a bit of a mong and all but he is facing something much more dangerous than what Fury is facing, Fury is facing a great heavyweight legend but a heavyweight legend that does have his fears because we all know the chin is in question similar to Fury.

I think Kell Brook has more of a chance than in a rematch than BJS has If he fights him over in the US I give him the slimmest chance possible.

But Saunders is mostly fighting on the Fury-Wlad undercard.. I doubt he would fight GGG this year considering an Oct fight + GGG would be due his next fight in End of Nov/Early Dec.. For my money it probably will be Jacobs & it make sense too as HBO cannot have 1 more PPV this year.. So GGG vs Saunders Mar/April Next year seems probable..

Sign me up for a Brook/Saunders fight next year.

BJS has no opponent yet, they were supposed to announce one last Monday and never did. He might get pulled off the October card and just go straight to December fight with GGG. They'll use the momentum from Brook/Golovkin to promote the fight.
