    Haha okay. Are you on his payroll? This guy has avoided top competition and screwed himself out of big fights. Sure he has skills, but it’s easy to look good against mediocre opposition.

      I dont blame anyone for not fighting Saunders ,hes pulled out of about 6 fights now,and hes the type of guy to turn down the biggest fights of hes career because hes let himself get fat,or took drugs.He looked far from great in hes last fights, hes fought in one remotely in Golovkins league,and clearly ducked Andrade.Hes going nowhere.

        Hes fought Jacob's Canelo twice and Derev.Now let's look at Saunders.Pulls out of Andrade because of drugs,pulls out of Canelo because hes fat. Best win Lemieux. I think its him who needs dragging into a big fight.

          Golovkins career was disappointing, but he fought Jacob's ,Canelo twice and Dervechenko.He was going to fight Pirog but he pulled out.Sauders has fought Lemieux and Eubank .No comparison.

            Saunders has only fought Golovkin retreads,and laboured more with them.He barely got by Eubank and has been run close by unknowns.No comparison to make.

                I didn't know BoxingScene had a comic section until I read this article.

                    At his best Billy has shown to be a really good boxer. At his worst he looks like he belongs in some back yard fights. Big IF and only hypotheticals now. Too bad.

                      Saunders sucks for sure. But he didn't go around talking about all the belts, take on anyone, etc. GGG pisses me off because he tricked fans and when you look back at his record, there's not much there.

                      Also, Lemieux is GGG's best win too. Regardless of the official decisions, I don't think GGG won the Canelo fights or against Jacobs or Derev.

                      If GGG's next opponent, after this fight, is not Canelo, I am sure it will be another fighter we've never heard of and one that has less 10 KOs.
