Who is saunders

Saul 'Canelo' Alvarez is on a mission to conquer the super middleweight division and reign as the first undisputed pound world champion in boxing history. Canelo has already stated that he wants four fights this year, having already dispatched of Avni Yildirim after three rounds in late February, making this Saunders fight a day turnaround.

Naturally, if Alvarez is successful against Saunders, he'll try to book a fight with IBF champion Caleb Plant for a shot to clinch undisputed glory. But that's getting ahead of ourselves, as Saunders — at least on paper — is shaping up to be a staunch test. That being said, who is Billy Joe Saunders and how did he punch a ticket to face arguably the best boxer on the planet?

Saunders, 31, is an England native, who first splashed onto the boxing scene and made an early name for himself in the amateur ranks.

There, the sound-boxing southpaw grabbed a first place gold medal as a then-welterweight in amateur tournaments such as the Commonwealth Championships in Liverpool in and the EU Championships in Poland in Seeing his own potential grow and build up steam, Saunders made his professional boxing debut in February at the National Indoor Arena in Birmingham, England. I've left that to my management team MTK who's over here sorting it, it's quite a big hiccup to be honest.

The problem is I've come over here and they're trying to chuck me in a phone box of a boxing ring. I want a foot ring and they're saying it's not gonna happen. I've left it to my team and I'm sure they'll resolve it, otherwise there won't be any fight. You can't just fly me in here, show me the ring that we're using. I've been training all of my camp in a foot ring, it's a unification fight, not a British title.

This is hardly the first time a fighter has threatened to pull out of a fight at the last minute. In March, Dennis Hogan threatened to withdraw from his bout with Tim Tszyu over a dispute regarding which sponsors Hogan could have displayed on his trunks. Just last week, Dereck Chisora stormed out of the post-weigh-in ceremonies for his fight with Joseph Parker after refusing to walk to the ring second.

In both of those recent situations, the fight went ahead as planned, with the protesting fighter picking up the loss. A strong safety orientation was evidenced throughout the project and especially during the challenging access conditions. Innovation Excellence Growth.
