Most of us heard the press conference with Saunders and Eubanks Jr. where Saunders said "Golovkin? Golovkin would beat us both on the same night." Is Saunders scared to fight Golovkin? Damn skippy he is.

That was 4 years ago when GGG was in his prime and Saunders was 24 and British, European and Commonwealth champion.... he was being honest, Saunders is in his prime now.
1. Saunders says Gennady would beat both him and Eubanks Jr on the same night. It showed where his confidence was at in 2014
2. In 2016 after his Akavov fight he says
“I stunk the place out tonight but I still got the win. I shall be embarrassed to talk about (Gennady) Golovkin on that performance but, trust me, he keeps talking about wanting my belt … I want his belt(s). But not on that performance.”
3. In 2017, after there were real talks between Gennady and Canelo, Frank Warren tries to butt in and offers a fight for Gennady to fight Saunders in Kazakhstan.
Now, is he well within his right to change his mind and feel more confident than he was in 2014 and 2016? Of course
If he's gonna demand $6.7million to fight Jacobs, you better believe he will ask for much more against Gennady. And that type of money just doesn't exist. HBO doesn't have the budget for it. Warren's UK connections can't cough it up. PPV numbers can't justify it either. He's probably want $10m to fight Gennady. And Gennady's cut would obviously be more than Saunders' cut. There just isn't a $20m budget out there. It's unrealistic.

It was 3 years ago and kudos go to Saunders for being honest at the time. Still, in my opinion, there is at least some fear and doubt in Saunders mind. And I don't blame him for wanting a payday right now. I wonder if we'll ever see this fight. I hope so.
Why do you hate him so much? If he was black you would be sucking him off like you do to Floyd. You people are so intimidated by whites it’s really sad. Floyd spends the second half of his career fighting the least risk highest reward and you have his c ock down your throat. Ggg is doing the same thing and you bash him for it. Floyd says he fights to please the fans and if the fans want it he will do it but never once did he do that and silence from you. Ggg says he fights for pride and boxing isn’t a business then shows that he doesn’t fight for price and that boxing is a business ans you jump on him like a black homeless man on a thanksgiving ham! Your hate and racisism is blinding.
