    In that case it'll be even easier than I thought to make :good

    Got a feeling that we'll get Burns v Mitchell for the interim vacant WBO Interim World Championship?

    And yes two interims were meant.. it's a new title ;)

    I wonder what the WBO will do if Marquez beats Pacquiao?

    If he loses they ain't gonna strip him because it'll generate far more cash to keep the title with him, unless he stays at 140/147 afterwards.

    Bold move from Allegedly, this.

    Either Mitchell or Burns will have to get past Micky K first

    Does anyone see Burns beating Broner, Burns hasnt even got a punchers chance, i like him but he would need a miracle to beat him.. I know Billy Nelson would slag me for saying it, but does anyone see different.? :think

    This is a ***** move to avoid a dangerous puncher. And it's funny coz I fancied Ricky to do a job on him as well.

    Feed him to Mitchell now.

    Avoiding Broner?

    Oh dear. Broner's poor, there isn't even a decent reason to avoid him, seeing as weight didn't seem a problem when he was taking on the likes of his last three defences, there's obviously the excuse that a fighter grows out of a division but forgive me for being cynical in my thinking that would be rather convenient at this stage.

    Burns would probably box Broner's head off, he really isn't anything special at all.

    But probably as opposed to 100% definitely isn't enough for Allegedly, never has been. Broner has actually stopped a legitimate opponent too.... that's enough to give him sleepless nights as he ponders over the next move for Ricky.

    Shame that they won't put him in some proper fights, won't be long before he comes acropper against some turd because he's lost interest.
