Comments Thread For: Billy Joe Saunders: I'd Love To Fight Golovkin In Kazakhstan

[Mindgames]

Nobody will fight Saunders, because he pulls out at the last minute all the time. Its not worth the time waste.

Saunders vs Andrade would put an ADHD kid on ******* to sleep...

This! He’s already pulled out of 4-5 fights. Or has them postponed. Look at Murray? 2x alone. It costs money to train and prepare for fights. He’s a waste of time and money

He's desperate now.

haha yeah I was going to bring out that quote - its still there on Youtube for anyone to see. Just like the one where Fury says novice Joshua gave him a hell of a tough time in sparring...

They talk about these fights but you know they aren't going to happen..

The only way he can beat GGG is on points. With his style there's no way he can win on points in Kazakhstan against an aggressive minded powerpuncher like GGG. He needs to fight GGG in the UK. Try to survive and hope for biased judges.

Anyways, GGG knocks him out no matter where they fight.

Reminds me of fughin Amir
The pullouts and low achievers of the sport

It was obvious that BJS was furious with the MSAC for denying him a licence and bitterly disappointed at not being allowed to defend his title.

It's beyond ****** to say he used a nasal decongestant to duck Andrade.

Maybe he was trying to get an edge, or maybe he just had a stuffed up nose and thought that using something that was allowed outside of competition to get rid of it would be ok.

I was just annoyed that Saunders wasn't licensed. It was a long drive and I was looking forward to Andrade/Saunders as a main event. The rest of the card wasn't great.

Good posts...in theory I would love to see the fight...and in Kazhakstan as a type of farewell for GGG would be neat...BJS would probably never get the decision there, but who knows what would happen...if he impressed there against GGG it would certainly raise his profile.

But BJS's issues with pulling out of fights are a problem...if we really knew he would show up and not pull out, I'd say go for it...would be a fun fight and good test and would probably make some decent money...maybe they could include some type of 'delay' clause that penalizes BJS if he postpones for any reason.

At GGG's age he can't really afford to have his time wasted at this point...the Jacobs fight was delayed a few months, and the couple Canelo fights stretched him out as well...would like to see GGG in with a few more good fighters and if BJS is involved it is possible he wastes 6 months of his career and costs him 1 or 2 good opponents...if they can make the fight and BJS actually shows up I would like to see it though.

BJS is a tricky fighter and doesn't bring in a ton of money...so it will be a little tough for him to really secure big fights...saying he will go to GGG's country to fight is a good step as the B side...but BJS's tendency to pull out of fights, combined with his awkward style and limited money, just make him an unattractive prospect for most fighters...sucks because when he is on I really enjoy him...maybe that nasal spray is the trick for him though idk..but against Lemieux and Monroe I was very impressed.

I think it’s a good fight and have always saw Billy Joe faring well vs Golovkin. BJ is too masterful of his art

Oxilofrine is a stimulant drug and is an amphetamine chemically related to ephedrine and to synephrine. Oxilofrine is currently a World Anti-Doping Agency prohibited substance when used in competition. It has been found as an adulterant in some dietary supplements.

Did he duck Andrade by taking this or was he looking for an edge? Did he know that he would get caught? Who know's?

Ya'll must be uninformed that they were supposed to fight on more than 1 occasion.
