Say all you want about Ricky and Eddie but they have done the right thing here. From BBC article: Ricky Burns is "99%" certain to make a February return against the man who broke his jaw, according to the WBO world lightweight champion's manager. Alex Morrison says a deal is all but done for Mexico's Raymundo Beltran to return to Glasgow for a rematch. Their first meeting ended in a controversial draw last month, with the Beltran camp saying the decision "robbed" their man of the title. It emerged afterwards that Burns had broken his jaw during the fight. The injury was described at the time as "career threatening" by promoter Eddie Hearn. The Coatbridge fighter subsequently had steel plates inserted into his face to repair the damage. Burns returned to light training earlier this month and now Morrison says his fighter is keen to do the right thing. "Ricky feels it's the moral thing to do in giving Beltran another shot," Morrison told BBC Scotland. "He wants to put the record straight after fighting for 10 rounds with a broken jaw in that first fight. "We want it. Beltran wants it and the fans want it. The deal is done. We're 99% there with it and are just waiting for the final confirmation which will happen any day now. "We're looking at early February in Glasgow."
Why? To be honest other promoters would have just blanked him so fair play to Burns,Nelson and Hearn for doing the right thing, Beltran would have earned his best ever purse against Burns so he should be well happy he's getting it again
would you be happy with that? because after getting robbed i would want some more money if offered a rematch
you really think another result like the last one will not affect his future earning potential :huh **** the guy should be the champion on the champions pay and burns should be going to america on a rematch claus if we were to have it right
price him self out no way , another result like the last as stated could very well make beltran retire . excuse why would beltran care it means more to burns the rematch than beltran as everyone knows who won that last fight :yep . beltan on the back of his last fight will get another shot at a different world title even if he does not rematch burns imo burns and eddie need this fight to happen more than beltran
But he's not the champion and he's been given a second chance. You haven't really answered why he should be paid more; it's only through sheer courtesy that he's getting a second bout.
if the result goes the same way do you really not think beltran might not walk away from the sport :huh you see him after that last fuc king bank robberry. if he were to is eddie going to set him up with a rolling retirement plan :bart . courtsey really after the fight there was an outcry resulting in burns losing fans many round my way for sure
did i claim to be :bart , if you was beltran would you risk it :huh as no fighter ever walked away from the sport :think just look at burns opponent before beltran you think he got enough money to live the rest of his life in comfort , you know the awnser
