Ricky Burns

It could be worse Billy .......it could be the Forge.

Be the only place in the world where someone could steal a world champs belt haha

 

I'm sure with a little more effort and maybe money you guys could have got hold of more tape.

I can completely believe the overtraining thing as his timing seemed well off. and anyone who has done anything in a boxing gym knows that sometimes your body turns up and for whatever reason you just don't have it that day. the mental fortitude to get through that was great.

however, I like many others (I believe) think the performance had more to do with the supprisingly good performance of Gonzalez.

Interested to know who the matchmaker was and what footage they based making the match on.

I have no doubt that Ricky could have been much better than he was, but Gonzalez was certainly better than any of you guys expected.

It kind of had the look of the 'man' in the gym who is widely regarded as the best taking on an unasuming kid who walks through the door and find out that he can't have his way with him.

Anyways many lessons to be learned.

Look forward to the next one!!!

Best of luck to you both./

 

Yeah sorry my mistake knew it was the mandatory.

Fair enough.

 

So wit exactly is slick eddie doin over there in new yoik, wits the hampden eddie!!

 

@ProBoxScotland: Ricky Burns will face Rat Beltran in Scotland on 7th September in Scotland

 

good stuff, gonna try and go to this one

 

Plz make it be at airdrieonians stadium eddie, sell out guaranteed, easy peasy check it oot

 

Still not reported anywhere else, a lot of Colin nish?

 

Readin the Daily Rebel there bit about ricky fightin beltran n that then it says if he comes through it he will fight the winner of rees/crolla as they have been promised a shot at him?? Eh wit, a like these 2 boys but am no sure its wehere we shud be goin maybe am wrong... another question a have if anyone can is ricky beat his mandatory there in gonzalez so what happens next can he fight anyone now I take it and how does another mandatory come about? Ta

 

theirs been a few guesses pulled out the air from Scottish journalists last year or 2 billy, you wud think they wud find out the facts before putting their names to it

 

Surely ricky must get frustrated if he gets put back into domestic fights?

 

Burns should get in the ring with Broner this year before Broner has fully evolved from a great prospect to a great fighter.

Burns would gain more respect when he lost to Broner than fighting little Gavin Rees who has already been exposed badly this year.

 

The Broner fight has been and gone. Ricky had two chances to fight him and didnt take either (yes Billy we have heard your reasons a million times ;-) )
