    Ricky ain't got the power to keep Broner off him. Mid-late Broner KO.

    What are they worth? :huh

    They obviously think they are worth more than they actually are. If Burns beats a Vazquez, he might have bit more of a say. One simply does not go from Kevin Mitchell to Adrien Broner and start making the demands.

    Of course I don't,but my son and I have a fair chunk of change invested in this.Do we write off £600 or pay £140 for extra flights in the hope that we might get something out of it?
    My boy has got into boxing late and we had the best night we've had in years at the Mitchell fight.We were really looking forward to this and doing something together so we're not some gullible poofters who think FW is OK.
    We only tried to organise a good weekend out.
    I know what time it is.
    If something good comes out of this other than the fight,then hopefully it's the straw that breaks the camel's back.
    And it's a good sign if Morrison is angry.

    Sign the contract. Take the test.

    Ricky Burns vs. Adrien Broner on the Mayweather Guerrero undercard.

    You know its right. Its a bigger fight, A better fight and the one everyone wants to see.

    But as Warrren said earlier he aint sending his boys away if they are going to lose. :patsch

    Domestic level promoter controlling world level capable fighters.

    Domesticated Promotions.

    You all said the same about Katsidis, Ricky cant punch, he wont be able to keep Katsidis off him. Ricky boxed his ****in ears off.

    Then Mitchell. The pundits & experts were split down the middle, its gonna be tight. Mitchell late many said, cos he had the bigger dig. A real 50/50 fight.

    Rickster had Mitchell worked out after one round, & even slipped into a bit of uncharectaristic showboating before he laid out Mitchell early.

    Of course, in typical brit ESB fashion everyone changed their ****in tune after Burns dished out the punishment, & declared the wins null & void:lol:

    Meanwhile, Broner beats Gavin Rees. The man who had to go to war with Derry Matthews to prevail. So Broner beats Burns easy cos hes mr flash & we all love the flashy flash on these shores:-(

    Typical brits, always suckered in by arrogant operators like Broner beating up on overmatched opponents. As if Ricky Burns will be flopping about in front of Broner like Rees! Broner looks great if you fight his fight, i.e get suckered into a brawl. Rees had no option due to his stature, but I must admit I did enjoy watching Broner beat him up, as Eddie Hearn is always such a dick to Burns. Hearing Rees afterwards proclaim that Broner would destroy Burns was the icing on the cake for me, Hearn & his stable of fighters are a right bunch of bitter deluded ****ers:lol:

    Sorry Gavin, but Ricky would have done you quicker than Broner.

    Anyway, regarding Burns Broner.

    Ricky Burns doesnt get suckered into brawls. Hes a smooth operator. He knows when to fight, & when to take flight. Broner to me looks like a mug when forced to fight on the outside. Rickys slashing long lefts to head & body would give Broner fits. Beating Broner aint rocket science good people of brit ESB.

    If theres any of you left.

    Why should Burns fall over himself to fight Broner, he holds a title too... Broner is refusing to fight in the UK so if he wants to drag a champion out of his comfort zone then he needs to show him the money.

    btw I reckon Broner gets him out in 8 if it ever happens. Theres a difference between ducking a fighter and holding out for a good deal

    Broner is jealous of Rickys fanbase, THATS why hes always calling out the rickster.
    Broner comes out rapping to about 200 tourists, whilst Burns has a whole nation behind him.

    Its jealousy.

    Simples.

    Agree with most of that, the first part is bang on mate. I'm a big fan of Burns, I do think Broner is a big ask, hard to call.

    There is a valid contract and a secured date for a fight with Miguel Vasquez on April 20th. Why would he drop this fight and go to Broner?

    If Ricky fights Broner in America and he only brings the WBO title to the table how much of the purse do you think he will get?
    If he beats Vasquez first and brings 2 titles then he gets much closer to a 50/50 split.

    If he fights him now it is too much risk for too little reward. This is the biggest potential pay day Ricky has in his career. He has to maximise his revenue to set himself up for life.
