Andy Lee's fight against Saunders has been postponed yet again

Andy Lee's world title fight against British challenger Billy Joe Saunders has been postponed again.

The original date for the WBO Middleweight bout had already been pushed back from this month to October and had also been moved from Thomond Park in Lee's home city of Limerick to Manchester.

However, an training injury suffered by Saunders means the fight will now be pushed back by to a later date according to Saunders' promoter Frank Warren.

"Unfortunately Billy Joe Saunders suffered a cut in training and his fight against Andy Lee will be postponed until late November and we'll be making an announcement about it later," said Warren according to ESPN.

Lee also confirmed the development on Twitter

 

He will also speak to Off The Ball tonight about the latest postponement.
