Comments Thread For: Saunders is Hungry To Face Golovkin Next, Says Frank Warren

[Shadoww702]

yeah he was scared of him, hence why he didnt throw any combos or a right hand. He fought like a guy who was intimidated, and thats why he shouldnt have got the decision

Last I looked Ward moved UP to fight him...When is GGG ever going to move UP doe????

Brook had a PPV event. Don't act like GGG does PPV's. It wasn't like Brook came here for GGGs PPV.

Brook is not GGG level, dont even compare them. When Brook has the WBA, WBC, IBF, IBO titles, sells out Madison Square Garden, sells out in Los Angeles, sells out in England.

"I want to fight GGG right after I fight the nobody I am actually willing to fight." Never heard that one before.

Methinks the trolls are out in force in this one.

Saunders can get a good payday by losing the belt to either Canelo or Golovkin -whoever is willing to pay more for it. Hearn's comment needs to be edited a bit to 'Saunders hungry for a payday...', then its accurate.

Saunders could lose the payday by fighting against a live dog like Rosado, but he doesn't want to take that risk - so he used whatever excuse necessary to avoid that possibility.

From the article, it sounds like Canelo won't work out for whatever reason over the next year (lots more options for Canelo) which leaves Saunders vulnerable to having to fight a live-dog before he gets to cash out with a GGG fight - and there's his worry. So darn right he's hungry to get GGG as without it, he could end up losing the belt one way or another without getting that payday he covets.

Meantime GGG has a mandatory v Jacobs, and whether that happens or not, he has to play those negotiations out else he gets stripped, and with his goal of unifying the belts, he's not going to step away from doing what he has to do with the Jacobs camp. That leaves Saunders hanging - he can only get away with fighting C grade fighters (who pose minimal risk of taking his payday away) for so long, and with the threat of a GGG v Canelo match up late next year, he might have to wait until 2018 unless GGG squeezes him in before Canelo (which he will do as he wants that belt).

If GGG can confirm Saunders 1Q, then it all comes down to what Canelo will do on his traditional fight date of 5 May. For a lot of (valid) reasons I can see Canelo not wanting to go to the UK on a big Mexican national holiday, meantime GGG will more than willing to, so likely outcome is GGG v Saunders in the UK May or June. Only other option for Saunders would be to go over stateside and fight Canelo on Canelo's terms, which could even include some catchweight BS and a lowball offer.

So GGG v Saunders, in the UK, early summer 2017. You read it here first.....

Oh what a suprise, BJS hasa fight coming up so name drop GGG. After the fight you wont hear a peep until BJS next annual fight.

Until this dude gets in the ring an defend his belt at least once, I don't want to hear about him fighting GGG or Canelo.

I believe Canelo fought Liam for the WBO belt so that he could automatically be ranked #1 by them even at MW if he chooses to for Saunders belt. Just last month the WBO were tripping over themselves for Canelo...They even stated they think he will fight for their belt at MW of course. Personally I like plan B. Defend the 154 WBO Belt against their mandatory #1 Demetrius Andrade.

GGG is so irrelevant he just had a PPV in UK. When was Saunders last PPV?

was that a sanctioned middleweight fight ?

oh right, it wasn't..... good point.....

so, I was WRONG earlier.....

fixed.....

Saunders fought Lee on 19th December 2015

Since 19th December 2015, Golovkin only fought Wade

FACT: Saunders has a better recent win that Golovkin

so, there is a more irrelevant champion in boxing today

that doesn't read any better for Golovkin ?

[aboutfkntime]

Saunders at press conference with Eubank "Golovkin would knock both of us out the same night"

Froch prior to Groves 2 fight "Golovkin hits like a mule. Swerve him like the plague"

Don't sound like the words of fighters who are chomping at the bit to fight Golovkin.

Then you have Canelo's call out after the Khan fight and subsequent actions. If Canelo is not scared his promoter sure as hell is.

That said, Golovkin should accept the $10 million but make sure the fight is not in LA. Can't trust that shady boxing commission. Texas is even worse with Lawrence scumbag. USA such a huge country - pity that there are not more and better venue choices.

right so, Canelo is scared..... despite the fact that Golovkin should simply accept the 10mil?

no matter how many times I hear that comment, it still sounds ******ed

And fk Saunders words, they are completely irrelevant..... because Team Bull**** offered him 1.5mil and then LIED about the offer.

have you been drinking the " dey duckin doe " koolaid ?
