Are people forgetting about what Saunders said to Eubank?

[Shrap]

Golovkin would destroy me and you in the same night

Let's not bull**** around here. BJS has avoided GGG all this time and still knows, even with Golovkin getting old, he has no chance. A post victory **** talking high won't change reality.

After Saunders said that, I defanned (became his critic). Times are a changing!

[Beercules]

Golovkin ducked BJS doe!

[Redd Foxx]

BJS also went on to talk mad shyt about GG for a year. Everyone knows he's not beating Golovkin. This isn't some secret. He deserves his chance to try though.

Spot on. Plus a proper unification is always welcome.

He isn't beating Canelo, Charlo, Andrade or Jacobs either.

At least he didn't make excuses (lost my pen)

[PensionKiller]

I remember this too, however he has changed what he said at least 6 months a go. Yeah he wasn't ready then but he said he is now.

He is someone who says it like he feels it is, which doesn't always come across very well on some of his opinions mind you.

[Rip Chudd]

too busy laughing at Billy Joe clowning Eubank


But yeah, we all know he wanted no parts of GGG then

I'm ever got why people think this is a big deal

That was over 3 years ago when Saunders and Eubank were still domestic level fighters and neither had a World strap, neither had even faced a former World Champ

Gennady at that time the best and was the most avoided MW, For Eubank to even talk about fighting Gennady at that point was irrelevant

Saunders was more talking sh.it to Eubank about know what level your at and earn your position.

Since he got his strap, he said he'd be down to fight Gennady when it was right

And He signed on to fight him last Summer, he's ready

Exactly. When fighters front they get criticised, when they call a spade a spade they get criticised.

Even a young fighter with Olympic pedigree and confidence still won't know for sure how good they are until they start progressing through the levels. I think BJS now knows how good he can be, and it's not just about the weekend, I think it's the fights, camps, basically the experiences he's accumulated up to this point.

I personally feel he is a handful for all these guys, including Golovkin, who's an excellent fighter but his style in lots of ways is made for BJS.
