By Dan Ambrose: WBO middleweight champion Billy Joe Saunders (24-0, 12 KOs) says he’s ready to fight IBF/IBO/WBA/WBC middleweight champion Gennady “GGG” Golovkin (37-0, 33 KOs) in Kazakhstan on June 10, because he thinks the soon to be 35-year-old Triple G has gotten old enough to be beaten now. Saunders says he told the boxing fans a little over a year ago that he wanted to wait 18 months to 2 years before facing Golovkin. That time has now gone by and Saunders is ready to fight Golovkin and beat him in his own country of Kazakhstan.

Golovkin’s promoter Tom Loeffler shutdown the Saunders-Golovkin rumors this week by saying that they have no plans on fighting him on June 10. A fight between Golovkin and Saunders would very likely be a short one with the fight ending in 6 rounds or less.
