Avtandil Khurtsidze Andre Rozier, trainer of newly-crowned WBO Interim World Middleweight Champion Avtandil Khurtsidze, believes his man will 'beat down' undefeated Hatfield star Billy Joe Saunders when the pair face-off for the full WBO crown. Khurtsidze – a short, stocky beast of a boxer – silenced the Leicester Arena crowd on Saturday by heavily flooring Birmingham's Tommy Langford with a brutal left hand early in the fifth round to secure the vacant Interim strap. Saunders and Khurtsidze had to be separated at a heated post fight press conference in Leicester and it looks like the war of words will continue until they settle their differences in the ring. Speaking to Boxing Scene's Steve Kim, Rozier said: "We're going to get ready and we'll probably put together a camp at SNAC over in San Fran and do what we have to do to make sure he's prepared to keep pressure on Billy Joe, keep him off-balance and beat him down, literally." A confident Saunders replied to Rozier's prediction via his Twitter account this morning, stating: "...until he plays the game of 'Eat the Jab' and I break his heart and stop him!" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hnvXXXC9XJE
