    That statement from Ricky says one thing to me fish eyes is holding his mum hostage in his cellar and will release her the day after the fight

    How will that work Craney? Should he pay for the returned tickets from his own pocket?
    And you're well aware that the vast majority of Burns fans are far from happy with this fight.

    If that's the case I'll urge Ricky to steal his Bentley as a form of retribution.

    It has to be said that Powell and his boss have really scraped the bottom of a pretty deep barrel here....Its an awful fight

    I think the best way to describe how we feel is an old Glasgow term,"Scunnered!"

    Marsili would be a decent opponent. Nothing spectacular but at least he's got a bit of form.

    Why not offer the fight to Rees - he's not got an opponent anymore.

    Just a straight offer - whatever the previous one was, and a rematch clause....

    Crap fight!

    Good luck defending this one billy, and to think this is supposed to be a warm up for broner, that fight ain't gonna happen, broner will move up and burns will probly fight abril late next year.

    I thought when Murray pulled out the other day that Rees would step in for Walsh but of course that's far too sensible for this sport.

    Nevermind....

    I don't think they would take it. Certainly I wouldn't if I were Hearn/Rees.

    They have a guarenteed shot at the WBA title. Theres probably more money in the WBA title fight agaisnt Abril, it could ever happen in the US. Rees can still fight Burns if he wins or loses.
