    Over at the Boxingnews24.com. Go sea it!

    Crawford is going to mop the floor with him.

    Even Glasgow judges can't save him. Normally, I want underdogs to do well, but Burns was awarded a gift versus Beltran, so in no way is he deserving of the title.

    Pity Beltran didn't get the title he won.

    Burn's jaw healed very well, so much for a career threatening injury.

    I like Burns' heart but the last fight or two left a bit of a sour note (plus the fact that imo he avoided, if not flat out blatantly ducked, Broner) and I think his days as a titlist in a weak division are numbered.

    but ricky burns hasn't had ONE bad fight, Hes had consecutive bad fights in which he was massively fortunate.

    He seemed likeable enough once but this fiasco means I want him to lose the title that he has been handed.

    I have no idea who Crawford is so wont know any excuse, sorry to disappoint your presumption.


    my only bogy is this - the corrupt Scottish judging needs putting right and that title should not be in burns hands. deal with it.

    Burns got lucky with a cut previously, but I wont deny he has grit and determination, I never would deny a truth.

    According to Crawford's promoter in exchange for the fight being in Glasgow, there will be neutral officials. Won't matter anyway because Burns will get KO'ed finally.
