Comments Thread For: Billy Joe Saunders Ready To Fight Golovkin - But Not on May 5

If he's serious then I'm sure GGG will be cool getting back in the ring say late July. Just do it then.

That may be a tad early, but August or September gives him roughly 4 months and ensures BJS is 100% recovered.

For what it is worth, I think Saunders is serious. I think we will see that fight this year unless Golovkin really can't live without the Alvarez rematch in September. I actually hope he ignores Alvarez.

Expecting a world class fighter like Saunders to take on the biggest challenge in his career on short notice is unrealistic. Hopefully they will get together in September.

Finally some common sense talk. Can't expect that from the GGGaholics, that's for sure. Fall is fine. GGG can take on whoever on Sink Of De Mayonnaise, then go with BJS later. Then the winner faces Canelo in '19.

Saunders

Same guy who told his opponent GGG would beat us both on the same night!



He's one Lucky Gypsy! Happy he got out of his fight with Murray!

Murray is no walk in the park...

And remember....Billy is no killer puncher!

Why even mention that you would be willing to fight but not on that date.
Aslong as he gets his name in the convo even though you have no intention is just really pathetic.
Alot of fighters putting their name out their knowing it wont be possible.

BJS will fight ggg but on his terms probably over him 250k to fight and then call him a ducker for not taking it and enough dummies online will buy it.

1 month notice for anyone who hasn't trained is a mistake for them

[Letmaku]

That's okay no problem with that. But on the other hand he missed the opportunity to really be great and be a legend if he wins of course. He choose to play it safe and be just one ordinary boxer. Life is a choice. 😂

Me too. What a coincidence!
STFU BJ. You know the event is too big for them to be waiting for you. He's another one of these cats that's always gotta be injecting his name in the convo, but he'll never actually fight the dude.

Like Mikey calling everyone out from Rungvisai to Gassiev to Satan to Jesus?

It's pretty damn annoying

Because for GGG and people that are actually putting in work getting paid is better than wasting an entire training camp only to be able to recoup a % of what Canelo phucked up.

unifying with Saunders would be a MUCH bigger fight

G could take a week off then slide back into the groove in camp

what a silly excuse, they could easily make that fight

[aboutfkntime]

Clenela cheated man, that happened, it really did. BJS is the one, not GGG, saying he won't be ready by May 5th when he was going to be ready to fight next weekend (April 14th).

Maybe it's time to look at the facts and set the emotions aside for a change?

FACT: they could EASILY defer the fight, so that Golovkin can chase his WBO " dream "

keyword = EASILY

I simply cannot believe that you guys are laying the groundwork to give Lovekin a free pass when he selects another scrub..... and somehow arguing that it would be better than a unification

I have never heard a fighter - or a fanbase - make sooooo many excuses NOT to fight..... wtf?

you guys absolutely know 100%, that G is going to select a bum lol
