Burns to fight Crawford in Glasgow in February

Aye lirva hes known for his pull outs, how did your bets go last night?

 

Why in gods name would that be worth watching? Simpson doesnt deserve to share the ring with quigg

 

Vasquez is the best imo.

 

Would be worth watching but agree quigg is level above simpson now

 

Absolutely.

The result is an almost certain Crawford victory barring some type of freak injury to him. The only intrigue left is whether Burns loses by points or gets knocked out, i'd bet on the KO by around the 8th rd.

After this fight Hearn will only have Froch left as a World Champion and his days are very numbered, no one should regard Quigg as being close to a 'real' world champion.

 

Crawford will mop the floor with Burns.

 

Spot on.

 

Any news on Burns broken jaw. Is it healed up now?

Very tough fight this one coming back from injury and a below par performance last time.

I wouldn't blame Ricky for giving this a miss but I suppose he won't want to give up his belt without getting into the ring.

I doubt many people have watched much of Crawford fighting. People might be believing the hype.

 

Aye, Ricky had better be careful of Crawford...but not as a legit threat, which he isn't, rather because Crawford will know his fellow doped-up yank failed to defeat a severely injured Ricky and so his scummy yank instincts will have him splash out for some better quality dope and use dirty fighting tactics (he's black so the slickness will hide it). Otherwise I'd absolutely love for the yank to be dominated and fuk off back to yankeeville with a Glasgow grin! :hi:

 

And then there were two.

 

Crawford will be exposed as just another American hype job.

 

Can't wait for this. The Hydro will be bouncing. I'll pay for the main event alone as I'm a Ricky fan. A good undercard will be a bonus (not expecting big things however).

 

Really? I'd much rather see local boys on the bill than folk from Wales or England.

 

I believe the other side would have had to pay Burns an 80% purse split to bring him to America.

Eddie had a big advantage in the negotiations.

So "massive credit" may be going OTT.

 

Took the words out my mouth

Quigg sounds good
