Comments Thread For: Saunders vs. Andrade Purse Bid is Set By WBO For July 25

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

A purse bid has been scheduled by the World Boxing Organization, for Billy Joe Saunders' mandatory defense of his WBO middleweight title against undefeated challenger Demetrius Andrade. The fight was recently ordered and both sides had a short window of ten days (10) to negotiate and reach an agreement. Because no deal was even close to being reached, a purse bid has already been set down.

Hearn v Warren should be interesting

[Vinnykin]

So Hearn will obviously win this purse bid. It will be hilarious if BJS whoops his star signing.

Hearn seems pretty adamant he's going to win this purse bid.

If I were Warren I'd let him and let BJS get paid the big DAZN bucks and win what should be a simple mandatory defense.

I can't see andrade getting past a fit and up for it Saunders but this is a neutral fight for me so may the best bloke win

So is he still fighting in Chicago October 26?

[Bronx2245]

If he's fighting in October, in Chicago, then it won't be BJ Saunders!

[daggum]

there is another article saying andrade wont fight saunders next. instead opting to face a lesser opponent. its andrade so im not surprised if he does that. guy is a clown

Battle of the inactives

[Fabes88]

This is funny because it’s quite evident both sides don’t fancy this fight right now. Be interesting to see how they get out of it although I don’t know why they’d want to do that. To fight a bum in October?

Not talking s--t but dang Billy Joe! All that money in the boxing game over there in the UK and you didn't land one of the bigger names???Now you just go and enjoy your medicine Mr Saunders.I think you made a big mistake but as a fan of the sport I'm looking forward to it.
