British boxer Billy Joe Saunders, the WBO super-middleweight champion, posted a video on the internet instructing men on how to hit women while on coronavirus lock down.
Saunders later apologized for making the video.
“I would never condone domestic violence and if I saw a man touch a woman I would smash him to pieces myself,” tweeted. “Apologies if I offended any women, stay blessed.”
The video was made, Saunders said, to show men how to hit women, should they begin “giving you mouth.”
“I just wanted to make a little video for all you dads, husbands, if you’ve got girlfriends etc. Obviously this COVID-19 is getting very serious and we are isolated away.”
As Saunders says in the video:
If your old woman is giving you mouth and you try to be patient, you try to be calm, cool, but after the sixth day you’re just about to explode.
All of a sudden she’s coming at you, spitting a bit of venom in your face, ready to say something, you may have left the dishes out, I don’t know what you’ve done but you’ve upset her.
As she comes in, she’s coming at you and you’ve lost it, just keep it safe with the hands. So as she comes in, she’s just about to say something, all of a sudden you explode and hit her on the chin.
At this time she may flash and see white and think, ‘What’s happened?’, she’s in a state of a horror.
She doesn’t know what’s going on and all of a sudden you dip down on that knee and you finish her off. That should do the trick.
Twitter users were quick to react:
According to the New Zealand Herald:
Saunders, who is unbeaten in 29 fights and is the current WBO super-middleweight champion, was close to securing a deal to face Mexico’s Saul ‘Canelo’ Alvarez in Las Vegas on May 2 before the outbreak of the coronavirus pandemic.
This wasn’t the first time Saunders has found himself in controversy and was fined £100,000 by the British Boxing Board of Control over a video where he told a woman he would give her £150 worth of drugs to perform a sex act.
Saunders was reprimanded and fined by the British Boxing Board of Control for the offer of drugs in exchange for sexual services.
