Billy Joe Saunders looks set to face Gennady Golovkin in unification mega fight.

[Primo Carnera]

I'd be amazed if this happens. Saunders doesn't want any of GGG!

Not many do to be fair and he may as well just give him the belt, he is that good.

What else does Saunders do at this stage of his career though?

His mandatory fight with Avtandil Khurtsidze is no longer happening as he's now fighting Tommy Langford for the interim title, so it's highly likely to be between Golovkin or Lemieux. Other than that the top 10 pickings are Andy Lee (already beat him), Eubank Jnr (already beat him) Cotto, N'dam or Sulecki.

Saunders needs a BIG fight this year and i reckon it'll be Golovkin as it's the money fight and Golovkin badly wants that belt.

Never happens

I'd also be astounded if this happens, based on his last fight. Isn't he so far away in form that the matchup makes no sense?

Amazed so many of you think this won't happen?

It 100% will be Golovkins next fight, he constantly says he wants ALL the belts - all set for June and talks are well underway

Saunders thinks he now has a real chance after Saturday.

I don't think he can take the power of GGG and let's be honest the only reason Jacobs could was the fact he was fighting as a Cruiserweight

Jacobs did show that a slick boxer can outbox GGG but he's gonna hit you hard at some point and if you can't take it your fucked.

Hatfield-based Saunders said: “I’ll travel anywhere to fight him, I’m not bothered about fighting him in Kazakhstan, I’ll fight him in a field for all I care. “Golovkin is strong but he can be outfoxed. A boxer always beats a puncher and he has never faced anyone as awkward or tricky as me. “I’ve seen faults and flaws in him that I know I can take advantage of. I want to see how good I really am. In my own head, I know I am capable of beating him. “I am in my prime and ready to take on the best. I want to give the fans what they want to see. He wants the WBO belt and I have it. I am willing to put it on the line.” Golovkin said: “This is my dream fight. My goal is all the belts in the division. Billy Joe Saunders is my last step, my dream. I want this fight.” - See more at: Saunders is Ready: Golovkin Has Flaws, I'll Fight Him Anywhere! - Boxing News

Jacobs did fight southpaw with some success but Saunders must be at his very best just to not get stopped by GGG.

I do not think GGG will allow the weigh in to be so early again for his opponent to gain as much weight again as Jacobs did. That was bordering on an unfair fight.
