Comments Thread For: Billy Joe Saunders vs. Avtandil Khurtsidze on July 8, Copper Box

If BJS is in shape and focused then i'd take him to out-box Khurtsidze. Khurtsidze is obviously a danger with his power however.

Is BJS the same fighter who faced Andy Lea though? He's been really inactive.

Qawi was like that back in the day. Couldn't believe when he stopped Matthew Saad Muhamed... but then he ran into Evander and was demolished. A solid boxer like Saunders will be able to handle Khurtsidze, just so he comes in shape to the fight.

Remember Qawi gave Evander life and death in their first fight. That was at cruiserweight and he was already on the slide. Even at a fat 220lbs he gave the nearly foot taller George Foreman a good tussle, the best of he's comeback until he challenged Holyfield himself. Amazing underatted fighter.

War white tyson!!! Run over him!!! Brooklyn stand up!!!

[GMAN SUPREME]

war mini mike! always been a big fan but he never stays active so you kind of forget about him. he will give bjs a run for his money no matter what! if he comes in out of shape like his last fight mini mike stops him no doubt about it.

I remember fighting Douglas as a replacement. He is tough and resilient SOB. He will give any of the top guys problems if they are not in 100% in shape

White Tyson is coming for you, Billy Joe Saunders.

Good! Fat ass, fake tough guy Saunders was trying to start **** for no reason in that post fight press conference. I hope to hell AK plants that bastard flat on his back right in front of fish eyes Warren. That would be absolute gold!!

Billy NoSandels is going down, bring the belt back to BK Georgian Mike Tyson!

[SilverMiles]

I favored AK to beat Saunders but watching the fight with Langford I gotta go with BJS. He's much slicker and has good enough pop to keep AK honest.

Saunders clearly just trying to sell the fight. Didn't look even slightly real. In other news however, he is one horrible piece of work and I hope "Devito" knocks him out. He'll have trouble living that one down.
