Comments Thread For: Saunders Now Hoping To Have Unification With Golovkin

[kafkod]

Jeez, no idea, but the value to GBP is huge:

1) gets slice of a Cotto fight for a title (Cotto being a PPV draw)
2) GBP double dip in a Cotto v Canelo II world title fight
3) process that sees Golovkin get another year older
4) process that gets the WBO belt to Canelo as a negotiating chip for a Golovkin rematch

That's got to have some value to GBP. What value ? Only their business plans/projections can say. But it might rival what Golovkin is willing to pay. Either way Saunders gets his payday, and even at 157, might view a Vegas date with Cotto as more self-approving than a date in Kazakhstan, and possibly more winnable (he won't, GBP knows that).

Not enough is the answer to the question I asked. No way is BJS going to starve himself half to death and go to the States for Cotto and he would expect at least half the purse for fighting him at 160. Forget it, it's not happening.

GGG haters are the biggest pu ss ies on earth. Shows you how much they know about boxing-NOTHING FUG ALL A YA!! GGG still has all the belts and Canelo is a little *****!! Chicken sh it runner. Fug him and fug DLH

Jacob and Canelo rematch are the best fight but if Canelo fights only in May and Jacobs is fighting in Nov then Golovkin can fight BJS in MSG in December..

Saunders should rather go for Canelo first.

Like he has a choice. He has a nothing belt and is considered a joke. And I bet he wants A side..LOL!

Valerio was a beast!

GGG needs to get this fight out of the way to get the last belt for his collection. Hopefully we get to see this before the years out.

If Saunders wins GGG by UD, I won't be surprised. Saunders is very slick, fast and skilled boxer. Slow and old GGG can't cope with speed of BJS. You can't ignore that GGG is 35 already, he can't compete with young skilled boxers over times. He was naturally slow boxer and at his 35 he is slow as hell. He beat Canelo because Canelo was only running during rounds 4-9. I think if Canelo tried to attack instead of running then he would win. Canelo looked stronger than GGG. In the rematch Canelo wins by KO because GGG will be 36 or 37 . Too old, too weak. It is very sad there was no elite opposition when GGG was young.

Saunders is terrible as is the MW division as a whole. Why anyone would want to watch this mismatch i do not know.

Wins over Eubank, Lee, & Monroe aren't bad. Considering Eubank is the "favourite" to win the WBSS at -68...

Kid is a solid fighter. ******, but solid.

Saunders is not a great boxer, not even close, Just as the Canelo fight had so many unknowns, Golovkin/Saunders is possibly the most predictable ever.
Golovkin applies pressure, in spades. Saunders tries to hold him off with his 'great boxing skills', but ends up on the ropes in no time - no power to hold him off. Tries to skip out - ring cut off - back on the ropes. Golovkin goes to work on the ropes, Saunders breaks down in however manyrounds it takes for him to realise he's not even close to this level.
vs Canelo it plays out a bit differently, but Canelo just has fun with it and treats it as a sparring session until he gets bored.
Jacobs out-boxes him while also breaking him down, ko in 9. Charlo starches him in the middle of the ring within 6.

Well then shiii, squire, none of us need to ever watch live fights again, since you obviously have it all figured out. LOL!

But just one issue... if Saunders isn't a good boxer, then GGG DEFINITELY is shiii at cutting off the ring. Geez friend, we saw that a few days ago vs Canelo.

This Motha****a just recently called out Amir Khan. 🤔

:rofl...........

Keep laughing. Your hero GGG made a joke of himself with his weak ring cutting this past weekend. All he did was run after Canelo, no skill in cutting off the ring. Plus he isn't as fast as Saunders. But like I said... keep laughing. GGG isn't God, isn't invincible. Saunders may or may not win... but one thing is certain, he'd embarrass GGG for several rounds.
