Undefeated WBO middleweight champion Billy Joe Saunders was unimpressed with new WBO interim titlist Avtandil Khurtsidze. The 5’4 Brooklyn-based Georgian Khurtsidze stopped British champ Tommy Langford in five rounds to claim the interim belt on Saturday night at the Leicester Arena in Leicester, England, to set up a July clash with Saunders.
Billy Joe Saunders: “No disrespect to him but I will show you what he is when I fight him. All he is to me is a puffed up Danny De Vito coming forward throwing punches. He will never beat me ever and I will make him look stupid. Tommy should have got on his feet and made him miss and made him pay.”
