Sooooooo.... Who is he fighting? LOL. It's a shame that the Fury-Wlad fight doesn't look like it's happening, but I'm glad this guy's platform has taken a hit to fight a nobody. Fight someone of relevance (it doesn't have to be GGG) to merit getting on such a card.

He turned down all those fights to end up fighting on a Bradley Skeete undercard

Wasn't he offered Rosado on the Canelo card? Look how sheet Rosado looked against Monroe - Saunders could easily have owned him and got way bigger bucks and about 100 times exposure plus set up a Canelo fight for millions next May - am I missing something?

I think BJS pulling out of the Rosado fight was more about him not wanting to commit to the GB contract to fight Alvarez. I think they wanted to wait and see if they could drive up the price due to GGG's success in the UK.

He turned down Rosado, Monroe Jr, Lemiuex, Stevens, Jacobs, and GGG.

He should have showcased his wares on the Canelo-Smith ppv. Wasted opportunity.

Saunders is the best middle weight out there.. The guy doesn't know who he is fighting.. he is not preparing for the style his opponent brings because he doesn't know who that is.. It might be anybody from his town too.. Scary stuff right there..
