WBO middleweight champion Billy Joe Saunders is quite the character. We know this, we’ve seen him in action, heard his spicy chatter over the last few years, and even seen it in action, from his blood-line.

I don't think he will be getting any less interesting as his profile grows, either, judging by this video hit posted to Fight Hype.

When asked about his holiday plans, the 28 year old, who undressed David Lemieux and mocked his manhood last Saturday night in Montreal, said, “Sex, prostitutes... Um..More sex, and more prostitutes. Every single day…nonstop.”

“Until you get into camp,” the interrogator queried, his tongue, too, presumably, planted in cheek.

“Until I get AIDS,” the 26-0 Brit boxer said.

He finished by telling all to keep eyes on him, because, he said, he will be stepping it up a notch in 2018.

Prior to that, he’d offered that he’d be willing to fight Danny Jacobs, in America, if presented with a $5 million pound purse. He acknowledged this isn’t very likely, being that his promoter, Frank Warren, and Jacobs’ promoter Eddie Hearn do business as often as America does with Russia. Er, I mean, as often America does with Mars.

Saunders will also be an interested observer, if Canelo Alvarez and IBF, IBO, WBA, WBC middleweight champion Gennady Golovkin collide in a rematch on May 5th.

My three cents: This sort of material won’t be for everyone, especially in an age where there is much more sensitivity to this sort of joking. But Saunders is making himself a must follow, from a press perspective, because if you don’t keep tabs on him, you might miss out on a wild pronouncement or action. Your thoughts, readers; is BJ too “blue” for you? Do you share his sense of humor, or is he a bit brazen for you?
