Billy Joe/Chisora/Bugiloni/Cox --- Fri/BoxNation. Fact.

[Tam Seddon]

Not the best bill, shame Chudinov pulled out. I have no idea why Saunders is doing this fight, he would get better action sparring then this. I wouldn't even risk it if I was Saunders, but I suppose for Warren Saunders' name will sell a few more tickets.


Good to see Chisora back though, theres still some interesting fights around for him IMO.

I think its actually Saunders who asked for it going by some of his interviews.

In one interview he said he didnt want to rematch Eubank because hed been out so long and would need a warm up first because hes actually been out 8 months already now!

Fair enough its a long time out, but this fight literally does nothing for him. Its just risky. As I said before he would get better rounds sparring than fighting this guy.

I dont know Saunders training setup but you would expect him to ise better wuality fighters in sparring?

Hes at the MGM, he works hard out there. I just don't see any points in this fight but fingers crossed its fairly routine because I am really excited for Saunders-Lee.

Imagine Saunders get injured and Lee fights Eubank instead and Eubank wins

Doubt Eubank would want to give away his precious interim WBA title so it wouldn't happen

I think it would.

That title although meaningless is a step on the ladder and a guarenteed place in the WBA rankings. If he had a straight shot at another title I reckon theyd jump at it.

Well he didn't fight Saunders and that would have been another route to fighting Andy Lee. He should of just scrapped the belt and pushed for the rematch if he felt like he could of won it.


Whos Eubank up against next anyway?

[Fenster]

Billy Joe weighed in at 173 for this.

[ross]

Billy Joe weighed in at 173 for this.

To ne fair thats what he looks like in most his fights

[Tam Seddon]

He could make 154 I reckon, hes a lot smaller than Lee and even Lee was boxing at 154. Wonder what he weighed before he came back to training?

[Fenster]

Since old Eubank pissed off old Frank they've disappeared. Shutting them out

[Primo Carnera]

Billy Joe weighed in at 173 for this.

I just watched this. Ok, I can understand he needs a tune up, as he's been out of the ring for 8 months, but what's the point of coming in a stone overweight and fighting As a LHW?
Now he's got roughly 7 weeks of camp and he's got to shift a stone as well! I like Saunders, and if he kicks on from the Eubank fight, I reckon he beats Lee. However, I do think going in at 173lbs is pretty unprofessional .

[Fenster]

I'm not a training expert but coming in a stone overweight just shows how easy he can make 160 when he trains. He's not a big middle.

i made weight for a fight at 12 stone 4, after the fight i drank beer and ate a kebab and in the morning i was over 13 stone

what does that tell you?

That drinking beer and eating a kebab makes you heavier?
