Comments Thread For: Saunders on Monroe: If a Quitter Wins Title - Boxing is a Circus

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Willie Monroe Jr challenges Billy Joe Saunders for the WBO middleweight title on Saturday boosted by a delayed flight as Hurricane Irma meant he was able to attend the birth of his daughter. The American will fight to win the only one of the four world middleweight titles not involved in the superfight between Saul Alvarez and Gennady Golovkin in Las Vegas just hours later.

BJS is talking so much Trash towards Monroe, Bringing out the knives trying to take Monroes soul before the bell even rings

Punked him at the gym yesterday, Gave him no respect at the press conference treated Monroe as a piece of Sh.it.

I want to see how Monroe responds on Saturday does he man up and fight like a warrior or fold up.

I don't like Monroe's talk about his kids and wife etc...he should match Saunder's trash talk with over the top trash talk. He doesn't sound menacing and gives off weak vibes.

He doesn't seem like a trash talker no point in pretending to be what he isn't. He comes across as a classy guy and bjs is a wanker of the highest order. Really hope monroe upsets him

Quitter Ortiz was world champ at one point and boxing is just fine

When Ward or BHop or guys like that try to mess with a man's soul, many here celebrate it and applaud their "mind games" ability, as if it's just a game and not people's lives. It's especially hypocritical to me when the boxers who are the most cowardly about fighting prime dangerous opponents in the ring, whose fans always make excuses for that because of the "damage" they can take, are often the first ones to resort to trying to mess up their opponent's personal life and reignite any past demons they might have, all because they're apparently not confident they can beat them at their best during the actual fight in the ring, and then their fans praise those same types of tactics.

One type of damage, the kind that is actually honorable within the sport and sustains the sport itself and builds legendary legacies and memories, is talked down by this group of LDBC fans, but another kind of damage is celebrated. Unless it's BJS using the same tactics against a black fighter, then suddenly they're not fans of it anymore.

I'm so sick of these double standards in boxing.

He isn't a trash talker. Don't know why people want him to be fake and put on an act for the cameras. Rooting for Monroe in this one

Monroe will be quitting again this weekend, my man BJS looks in great shape.

Saunders has come across as a bit of a **** in the build up to this tbh.

The guy has the 'banter' of a 12 year old.

Monroe seems a cool guy. Maybe a bit too nice for boxing though.

Interesting that Saunders is calling out quitters, while being in the same gym as Kell Brook

Saunders is a complete ****wit. Really hope Monroe wins this one.
