Ricky Burns against the following...

Oh come on FFS he beat a shot Katsidis, hes still not much cop. I like Burns but give this **** a rest.

Rios makes him look like a Mike Tyson date
Marquez makes him eat through a straw
Guerrero makes him look like Stephen hawkins
Antillion jabs him to death
Mitchell sells him dope

The rest you get the message.

 

Mitchell would be the only man I'd favour him against to be honest.

Marquez vs Burns wouldn't be funny I'm afraid.

He's proven that he's more than capable though :good

 

Looking at that mottley crew, wouldn't be suprised if he went to 140

 

Im serious 3/4 of them would be suicide for him, ive really not got anything against him, to me he is VERY good at doing the basics.

I do feel he could beat Mitchell though on a serious note.

 

I want to see him in the trenches for a round or two to see how he responds - no one domestically does that including mithchel. Kats never took him into troubled areas, but the likes of marquez and rios would.

He should at least start looking to fight the world class level opponents mentioned above to show us where he is really at

 

Antonio DeMarco
Jorge Linares
Miguel Acosta
Urbano Antillon
Kevin Mitchell


These are all good, potentially winnable fights, but I'd only make him favourite over Mitchell

 

No way does Ricky Burns beat Kevin Mitchell.

I just think Kevin Mitchell is too fast, and i think! He has the power to TKO Burns.

Will be a good fight while it lasts!

 

I love the way a fighter loses and he's shot , so now Katsidis is shot .............. , and Burns is still a domestic level fighter , well im not buying that , i am buying that Katsidis didnt look himself , but for me Burns tactical application and variety of shots looked excellent .

Of the worlds best LW's , i think he'll be lucky if he ever shares a ring with Marquez or Guerrero both heading up in weight it would appear

I dont rate De Marco at all , i think Ricky would walk through Mitchell , id give him a decent shot at beating Antillon too

Needless to say Guerrero is on a different level , Acosta matches him well stylistically and would box his ears off , im not fully convinced with Rios but id still have him stopping Burns , Soto would box his ears off but again looks to be going up , i think Murray would be a terrific fight but i like Murray in that fight too

In summary get Burns Mitchell made , if Kevin has screwed his head back on

 

Mitchell would be a good and realistic next fight for Ricky and I think he'd win that one quite handily. Of the top guys at lightweight, I'd love to see him take on Miguel Vasquez. Both men are very good technicians and are not afraid to go toe to toe so I'm sure it would be an action packed, very close fight.

 

I haven't seen his last fight but apparently Acosta is shot to ****... :think

 

Burns/Marquez-Marquez TKO
Burns/Rios-Rios KO
Burns/Guerrero-Guerrero UD
Burns/Demarco-Burns close UD
Burns/Linares-Linares SD
Burns/Acosta-Burns UD
Burns/Antillon-Burns UD
Burns/Mitchell-Burns late TKO

 

Yep.

Even as a massive Aguacerito fan I had to chuckle at a post or two in this thread, Miguel's done.
