Billy Joe Saunders-Khurtsidze Devito - July 8th/London.
Now that Golovkin has officially ducked him (before the dullards and divvies start - i'm joking) this fight is signed and sealed (before the typical pullout when they can't sell any tickets Saunders gets injured)
This should be a cracking little styles clash. Saunders should be able to stand this little tank on his head, however, he was poor last time out, inactive and for a man that shows suspect stamina hasn't done anything to rectify it outside the ring (in other words, he openly stuffs his face and boozes).

Should reflect in Saunders performance just how serious Tyson Fury has been training over in Spain, they've been glued together for the last 6-8 weeks uploading social media videos on an almost daily basis.
Saunders cannot afford to lose this so needs to be back in top shape, he was shockingly bad last time he fought and needs to try and elevate himself from where he is right now - One of the UK's top fighters/Great naturally gifted fighter, a reigning World Champion of about 18 months and still struggling to fill Venues like the Copper Box Arena (capacity 7000) and more worrying the Lagoon Leisure Centre in Scotland (capacity 1000)

Its going to be circus at the umpteen press conferences they'll have. Saunders will be giving it the big un, the bulldog will have no idea what he's saying but fire back at him in riddles anyway.

Saunders will get his act together and put on a good performance but he needs to get moving as there are big fights out there for him to make before he cashes the title against GGG.

Will the blowing up between fights take it's toll? Khurtsidze will definitely answer that question. The height difference is huge in this one but Georgian can fight and if he can make Saunders uncomfortable he may come apart at the seems.
Re: Billy Joe Saunders-Khurtsidze Devito - July 8th/London.
At the first press conference Saunders accused all the Americans - including Golovkin - of being on roids, FW backed him up. The little tank just laughed at all the shit talk. Saunders went from ranting and raving to hugging him.
Billy Joe is unpredictable like Fury, hypocritical, a realist one minute then a fantasist, unlikeable/likeable. I find it funny that two "thick" hard-talking gypsy fighting men are "smart" boxers not tear-up merchants.
