Comments Thread For: Saunders To Eubank: Beat Golovkin and Then We'll Fight

[hugh grant]

If you ask GGG if he wants to fight Eubank, his reply would probably be when he was in his prime and he beat Watson and Benn I'd love to have tested my skills against him, but hes too old now isn't he, he isn't making a comeback is he. Not even aware Eubank has a son.

But other than that, if you tell GGG, Eubank Junior thinks he can beat you, that is the only way Eubank might get a shot by talking his way to a shot at GGG.
So I would love to see it. But would Eubank want 18months before he is ready, or would he take the opportunity now?

Saunders beat Eubank Jr and Lee fairly, so blame the judges or those fighters for not winning. Therefore, Saunders can say whatever he wants towards Eubank Jr. Isn't that what you GGG fans want? An easy win against Eubank Jr.? Or are you guys afraid of GGG losing that 0 with Eubank Jr.?

Eubank Jr. seems like the right choice for the pre Canelo showdown. However I would like to see GGG grab Saunders WBO so that Canelo can gank the WBA as well.

Not it doesn't, wtf?

If Golovkin doesn't fight another belt holder, or his mandatory challenger for his net fight, he will lose his IBF belt.

Have to side with Saunders on this one, he beat Eubank fairly, and still the Eubanks run their mouths, they must be despised in the UK. Saunders is onto bigger and better things. Eubank needs to walk the talk.

Saunders is the biggest dough boy in the MW division

This guy tell Eubanks to do something he himself says he can't do, and if Eubanks does it we are supposed to believe that Saunders would be like, well ok, let me fight the guy who beat the guy I am deathly scared of.

Right, if Eubanks beat GGG (stop laughing for a second), then Saunders would be another 18 months away from being ready for Eubanks.

Not really. The IBF hasn't exactly been forthcoming in this, and Johnson has already said he is open to step aside money. If GGG lands a big fight, I'm sure Johnson would wait until after the Canelo fight, or at least until Summer.

The article on Sky sports has more of Saunders quotes. He isnt saying that he needs to fight GGG to be worthy of fighting him, just that he needs to fight anyone noteworthy to earn a shot now that BJS has a title. Which is fair. Saunders also mentions Jacobs in the article

I think BJS is just requesting Eubank do something before making it worthwhile him fighting Eubank again. BJS is just stating he has won a WBO title now and what has Eubank done? Eubank just self proclaims is what BJS is getting at.
But of course if Eubank did beat GGG, I have no doubt BJS would fight Eubank with none of this 18month talk. If Eubanks didn't need 18months to beat GGG, BJS will feel I don't need 18 to beat Eubank.

He knows Eubank will beat him up in a rematch. A raw version of Eubank fought him to a toss-up and he has improved enormously since then, he'll beat him comfortably in a rematch.

Possibly, so it might be too dangerous a fight with not much to gain. But if Eubank was to beat GGG it would be worthwhile for BJS to fight Eubanks. Similar kell brook beat Porter now Khan is more open to fighting Brook soon.

I was on Saunders' side when he called out Nelo and Cotto. Makes financial sense. I was on his side with the 18 mon timetable for GGG. Again, SHO seems to be angling him towards a Jacobs showdown. Which would put GGG about 18 mon down the line. But this, just stop Billy Joe. You sound like a total ass. And quite frankly, you sound like a total b1tch.

if you aren't ready for ggg how is eubank going to be ready for ggg when eubank lost to you?
