    How's you Billy?
    Is there any news on an opponent for Ricky on Saturday?

    Ha ha it's simply people are jealous of something that works well and they've not got the ability to make it work for themselves so they
    spread rumours to try and stop it working.End of rant

    To be fair Billy the rumour has been going about for a while and keeps resurfacing, don't think it's particularly down to jealousy. Glad it's not true though, you defo deserve to be there when the massive fights come round.

    I know there's been friction between Alex Morrison and Billy at various times, in particular in respect of the fights that Burns takes.

    If I was Burns though I'd sack Morrison, and sack Allegedly too.

    Stick with Billy. It wasn't so long ago most people reckoned Burns was a gritty domestic contender at best. Five years on, he's in the top 3 in the world at 135, most probably.

    ah well, even against Ocampo or whoever in a ten rounder I was looking forward to seeing the Rickster in action again, pity we have to wait, but at least we may get a decent opponent this time, then hopefully its off to kick adriens ass all over the USA

    I'd go with that except I think the last part is partly down to Alex sticking by Ricky when he was drifting in the eyes of the boxing public.
    Maybe Billy will put me right but I always felt Ricky would stay loyal to Alex.

    Ricky will always stay loyal to Alex and why shouldn't he?
    Alex has guided him to be a two weight world champion,if we lived in any other country we'd be raving about the fact,but eh!

    It's clear Ricky wants the big fights I've heard him mention the Ring belt on more than one occasion, we all know why he hasn't had these fights and who that is down to. You need to get these fights like unifications before it's too late and people remember Ricky being a bottle job and not going after the biggest fights when it clearly isn't down to him.

    Ricky's first loyalty should be to Billy, he's the one that's helped him improve more than his manager.

    He needs to insist that Morrison get him the big fights, if that means sacking Allegedly as promoter then by all means do so.

    No good being 50 and thinking ''I wish I'd have fought him.... I'd have beat him.... he became a superstar....''

    Billy gets a lot of undeserved stick. He's alright in my book and done a good job with Ricky. I can't believe the rumours. It's just a silly little alternate profile being a ****ing **** stick
