Saunders currently holds the WBO middleweight championship belt; the missing piece from Golovkin’s current middleweight reign. If Saunders is successful in Saturday night’s title defense against Artur Akavov in London, nothing but space and opportunity separates him from a unification bout with Gennady Golovkin. Saunders says he’s ready but will he ask for another year of preparation time?
