Ricky Burns: ''We couldn't get much footage of him'' said after the fight

People over react on here. I can only imagine the drivel that would have come out after Holyfield had a really rough outing against Cooper.

It happens.

 

Burns >>> Paulie
Gonzalez >>> Paulie

Burns >>>>>> Rees
Gonzalez >>>>>> Rees

 

Paulie would beat Burns. Come now

 

Paulie back in the day would have outboxed Burns.

 

No chance, loses a UD

 

Paulie would beat him easily now, Burns is average.

 

Paulie is a more accompished fighter than Burns is it can't be debated. Burns would get schooled if he went up to 147 and fought Paulie. Get real man.atsch

 

No ****, Burns is a natural lightweight and much smaller unlike Broner who killed himself to make weight so he could fight smaller guys. Hell, he will be the bigger man when he steps in the ring with Paulie.

 

I like Burns but this is ridiculous. Paulie is lightyears ahead of him and would absolutely school him at 140. Paulie's a problem for anyone that isn't the elite level and will usually win. Such an underrated fighter cause his jersey shore look and cause he can't punch, dude is a as tough as they come.

Unfortunately for Gonzales it takes heart and toughness to be champion and sometimes that's enough to beat a more skilled fighter, Ricky def has heart and toughness to hang in there when the going gets tough and that let him keep his title over a dude who showed he was clearly far more skilled but lacked heart.

 

:good pretty much.

 

Back in what day ?

The best win on Paulies record is Ndou FFS
Whenever he fought anybody remotely world class he got beat.

 

Burns UD's Paulie at 135, 140 or 147, the weight isn't an issue when it comes to Paulie, and Burns is a big lightweight, he'll be at 140 within a year or two.

This is an easy fight for Broner coming up

 

he has wins over a juan diaz that no one would favour ricky burns to beat

 

Absolutely.

Rocky Balboa (2006)

 

do you think burns is world class then?
