Monroe is pretty tricky. Saunders better be at his best or Monroe pips him.

Saunders will be at his best, he has a very lucrative fight next and he will not want to blow it.

Great fight and if BJS knuckles down it is a chance to get his name back in the mix

The damage (inactivity, blowing up between fights etc) may have already been done.

I think he is still young enough to get away with it but it does not matter against triple G, he will get ripped.

Thought this deserved a bump as we are only a few weeks from the fight

Cannot place it exactly but I don't like this guy. Maybe its him constantly licking his teeth but seems a bit of a twat. Might be that hair.

I was surprised to see Munroe has half the knockouts Billy Joe has and BJS isn’t even a puncher. So this fights guaranteed to go 12 and in England Munroe isn’t going to get any favours.
With that in mind he needs a pretty good gameplan and execute perfectly in order to get a decision. Anything close/not emphatic will surely go the Britons way.

Munroe did okay to go a few rounds with Golovkin but I agree with BJDS that he did give up in that fight. He wanted to be counted out and when he wasn’t he had to say to the ref “im done” Makes you wonder that if the next time he is in a hard fight if its easier for him to just throw in the towel now he’s already done it once. Luckily for him Billy wont put him under that sort of pressure and lacks the punch power of GGG so it’s a safe bet that he should be able to stick around in this fight.

They could both frustrate each other if it’s a standoff but the pressure is on the visiting fighter to make things happen which will play into Saunders hands. I can see Munroe getting picked off and out boxed in a nip and tuck fight where not much happens. He doesn’t have the power to turn it round either. Having said that BJS has afew questions top answer himself. He was appalling in his last fight. After inactivity and ballooning in weight, changing trainers etc there’s no reason to believe he is going to be much better in this fight as he was last time out. For that reason I can see an upset. I’m not convinced so much by what Munroe brings but I just think Saunders is a vulnerable champ at this stage and it won’t take a great to be him. The fight hangs in the balance. If BJS can’t turn back the clock he can lose his title on points. At the same time if Munroe doesn’t cease this opportunity and really go for it he will regret letting it go to a decision. Anyone say draw

Just goes to show what people think of BJS. These are the first posts about this fight for about 4 days and we are in fight week. And nobody even mentioned BJS!

Different day same shit from Saunders. It's so obvious that he just wants to take low risks until his check out payday fight. The way his career has gone has been a disappointment from the early promise......Became a low tier World champion but lost motivation.


Thanks.

Saunders has been out of the ring too long and got very unfit and fat. He probably can get away with it whilst he is young but just like Hatton, it will shorten his career.

Saunders is a quality boxer but GGG is something special and it is no shame to lose to him and make a load of money whilst getting to showcase his skills for future fight in the USA.

BJS is keeping the title warm until GGG claims it.
