Eddie Hearn in rumored $15m bid to land Billy Joe Saunders

[smashup]

World Boxing News understands Billy Joe Saunders has been offered a huge $15 million deal by Matchroom Boxing chief Eddie Hearn.

A rumor apparent to WBN states Saunders has what equates to £11.37m on the table to sign a contract with Hearn.

Saunders would then reportedly have the opportunity to fight on Sky Sports Box Office in the UK and DAZN in the United States.

Encounters with the likes of Demetrius Andrade, Gennady Golovkin and Canelo Alvarez would be firmly up for grabs.

It’s no secret DAZN are on the verge of luring Golovkin to their stable. ‘GGG’ – like Canelo – would then be open to facing anyone at 160 or 168.

At present, and as WBN sees it, Saunders is happy with Frank Warren. He’s currently gearing up for a WBO super middleweight title clash.

Just last week, it was confirmed by Warren that Saunders will battle Shefat Isufi for the vacant belt on April 13th. A win could see Saunders become a two-weight ruler with the WBO.

It’s believed Saunders is not considering the tempting bid. Whilst Hearn continues to try and nailed down some of the biggest names around

If this is true, Hearn can go fuck himself. Saunders is currently in no mans land, and Hearn wants to throw a lottery win his way. Fucking garbage.

Many people have said that Eddie is not as smart as his dad, I think he's just proved it.

He keeps wasting money like this and Hearn will be promoting arm wrestling competitions and midget rodeos. Who in their right mind would spend that coin on the current Saunders.

Stop believing all these bullshit articles, these shitty boxing sites run with any old comment they read on social media.

Hearn laughed when it was put to him, he said Saunders would need 15 fights for $15million.
