Comments Thread For: Saunders-Khurtsidze: WBO Orders Promoters to Start Negotiations

I like BJS, but hoping for an upset here, so not so Tyson will fight GGG, and then GGG can move on.... Honestly I think GGG is gonna end up like Martinez did

[Clegg]

BJS acted like a punk over and over again and now gets his reward, great news. He'll get smashed and come retirement will have made less his entire career than he would've in one night vs GGG or Canelo if he'd just showed a set of stones.

That one day when the whole of NSB unites.. Hope BJS gets whooped bad!

What is the WBOs stance on unification fights. If Saunders signs for GGG in June will it delay the Mandatory?

[W1LL]

Time to cash out by all accounts. GGG in June sounds good right now.

Saunders beat Khurtsidze easy (well not easy, but it rhymes)..

Khurtsidze's overrated from the Douglass win. Douglass was a 23 year old who made the mistake of trying to slug it out too much with Khurtsidze, Bill's smarter than that. Now Khurtsidze will have been out of the ring for a year, is about to turn 38, and had recent medical issues with blood in his urine.

Saunders won't look like he did vs Akavov, Adam Booth will probably give us the best version of Saunders yet. After Khurtsidze, I think the next mandatory will be the winner of Lemieux/Stevens as they're fighting for the WBO's NABO title, with Lemieux already rated in the top 5. Mr. Honda will have to find another way to buy Murata a title shot.

Very smart if that's doable, you should be a promoter.

I hope he gets upset. Losing his belt to some unknown Georgian would be poetic justice for his shameful attempt to sit on it until he can sell it off to the highest bidder

[W1LL]

I do think people are overhyping this Georgian. Billy Joe is a masterful boxer when he's on form.

especially considering said unknown georgian is the size of a bantamweight and close to 40 years old, i cannot wait till he knocks ******* out

war midget mike tyson!
