It's hard to tell when Dunky is being serious and when he's trolling. Deep down he would love the Scotty fight for Burns.
Come on guys, Burns has to do more than beat vasquez and Broner to become the greatest ever scottish fighter. I rate Burns highly and think he'll go further than most boxing fans do, but Buchanan was a truely great fighter competing in a great era, and faught and beat elite fighters away from home. Ken beating Laguna twice is like Burns beating the likes of Marquez twice (In Mexico then America).
No and niether hae any of us....despite Frank saying he would put it on his website. Funny that! Was just saying it would be unisual for a deal to work that way. Doesn't suit either party.
Of course he would, but he knows that even Morrison wouldn't get away with pulling that stunt. He's hopeful but ultimately it will remain just a dream
Eddie Hearn on Burns vs Rees for May 11th - Ringside Toe 2 Toe Podcast "Yeh allot of people are mentioning that fight. Its not on our imeditate radar at the moment, especially for May the 11th. Gavin will box himself in June, if he comes through a tough test who knows for September. I think Ricky is in a place now where he needs to build towards those big unification fights and you couldn't get away with to many routine defences, especially how brutal the fans are these days. I think its a case of making sure we get the right fights so he can move to those unification fights as quickly as possible."
Sounds like Eddie is a fan of the WBO Reign of Terror, but may possibly resist because of us "brutal" fans.
Don't go postal on me here Jonsey but I had to look twice at who said that because it looked for all the world like a FW stock response
He's USA Rob now, but the spelling mistakes date back to when he was just plain old Rob Palmer. At least the spelling mistakes are a good indication that what he's quoting isn't just a copy and paste job.
typical bull****, a bum in may then followed by gavin ****ing rees, then all the top fighters will have fights scheduled for dec so eddie will have another excuse for Ricky to fight another bum in December.
