About cotdamn time this boy get a fight...

According to the Irish Daily Star, Andy Lee is forgoing his home title defense against his mandatory Billy Joe Saunders and instead taking a voluntary defense against Peter Quillin on April 11th in New York.

The bout would be set to air on NBC and be the co main event to a bout between Danny Garcia and Lamont Peterson.

Lee beat Matt Korobov for the WBO World Middleweight Title after Quillin had vacated the bout. Quillin would have been set to make 1.4 million dollars but instead dropped the belt.

Now it seems the two are on a collision course on network television. According to the report, Lee will make 3 to 4 the amount he would have been making for fighting in Ireland.

Al Haymon and NBC continue to make a splash as it will follow up his march 8th doubleheader with another great set of match ups on April 11th with Garcia-Peterson, Lee-Quillin with The Barclays Center most likely being the venue.

Finally Kid gets to scrap.

#KronksFinest about to give him that #RightHandOfGawd tho. :blessed:

PETER can outbox him, but I am not that high on the KID. I dont give a fukk what anyone says, Peter was about to lose to Rosado before his cut got too bad. The judges scorecards were all the way fukked up. I think a guy like Lee can knock this over hyped ass nikka out.

But at least he actually fighting someone decent unlike bum as #GGG ducking the #SOGGANG :jawalrus:

i still have my doubts until dude co promotes..because i still dont like the whole shyt thats going down with peter quillin..dropping the belt only to go back right for it instead of something more upward reeks of coddling to me

i think he still does business with goldenboy since they both have a good relationship with stephen espinoza but we can pretty much forget dream fights like pacquioa/garcia or pacquioa/broner

The saga surrounding the World Boxing Organization (WBO) middleweight title was met with yet another plot twist Friday morning. Unbeaten contender Billy Joe Saunders—previously rumored to have been willing to once again step aside—has instead enforced his mandatory status for a due title shot versus recently crowned Andy Lee.

A purse bid hearing has been ordered by the sanctioning body, to be held on Tuesday
January 27th at London Stansted Airport.

“I’m within touching distance of fighting for the WBO world title now and I can’t wait,” said Saunders (21-0, 11KOs), who earned the title shot with a narrow points win over Chris Eubank Jr. in their grudge match which doubled as a final eliminator last November.

Soooo............... did the check bounce or.............
