Question for Billy Nelson - Burns v Crolla

Discussion in 'British Boxing Forum' started by Furey, Jun 30, 2013.

  1. To be fair to Solaris he is trying to prove his point,he is well aware of the circumstances

    But the Beltran fight could lead to better things,however a crolla fight which I would find appealing to watch does nothing for his ambitions and feeds the critics

    Ricky's not bothered who he fights as long as eddie pays him. He admits this frequently

    You spend so much time asking questions you already know the answer to. It's a tad wearing.

    I think I do. If I remember correctly ****** had everything all kosher and set to go for a unification fight. Ricky and billy, who had no intention of fighting the best in the division said **** this ****, what stable can I get such cakewalks as Gavin Rees as easy defences? Get fast car Eddie on the case. Something like that?

    This is all sarcastic Billy btw, just in case I get the ginger warrior treatment
     
  4. Ha ha


    No one likes the nelson treatment except maybe hayemaker who feeds off it

    If the Crolla fight happens I will be the completely disgusted but it's not even on the radar yet. I am worried about the fact that it was talked about various times on last night's coverage but I am sure that Hearn could not be that short sighted.

    As far as we are led to believe, Ricky is being built up towards a unification fight with either Vasquez or Abril. They haven't altered their stance from that, even if they are getting a few fights in beforehand. Understandable really since he almost lost his last fight
     
  6. He is a very pleasant size zero trainer of Ricky Burns who takes all constructive criticism about the opponents of Burns on his triple chin.
     
  7. Don't feed as frequently as Billy Nelson thankfully

    :happy

    But for example Crolla gets one more fight against a level above fighter and he wins again, burns should give him a shot imo..

    How many world champions have you fought in that time?

    By champions I mean people holding belts.

    Martinez was the champ,Katsitas ex champ,Moses ex champ so 3/8 isn't to bad, add to that Mitchell who many on here thought only had to turn up to beat the Scot :rofl:rofl and Gonzalez No1 contender I beleive Ricky has had excellent challenges and came through them but still gets stick from folk is unreal, I know the down south you'd love to beat Rickybut let's face it nobody down there would get near him

    I want Ricky to dominate the division. Just because I pull you up for talking rubbish doesn't mean I want him to lose.

    To answer my question properly, 1/8 with 0/4 at lighweight.
     
  13. Did katsidis ever win a full title or just interim

    Definitely, although there would still be critics.

    Rees would come into the fight with much bigger credentials on the world scene & had recently fought at world level in only his previous fight to Crolla.

    - Former world title holder at LWW.
    - Has shared a ring with Kotelnik & Broner.
