    Wow what a thread.. Sometimes worry why people feel the need to act like complete bell ends. 1 thing is for sure Crawford is World level.. Might not be champion material but we will find out against Ricky. In honesty I think he is just a little bit better than Kevin Mitchell and Ricky should deal with him

    Agreed.

    No doubt Burns is a good solid fighter and has proven that with wins over opponets who were outside the Top 10 but he's simply not Elite level or has the boxing skills to ever compete with the best of the division. Only reason he did so well up to now is he's a natural Welterweight who dehydrates his body down to 135lbs in order to have a size and weight advantage over his opponents.

    Burns chickened out of the Gamboa fight and now his team is doing everything possible to get out of the Crawford fight having now postponed it from February 8th to March.

    Don't be surprised if Burns vacates the belt.

    Is it true that this new strength and conditioning trainer that as been added to the team is in fact just one of Ricky's mates that he works part-time with down the local DW Sports gym?

    Since I've know ricky now 6 years he's never been at anytime 10 lbs over his fighting weight so your myth is miles out T!
    I'd love to know we're you dream up your info Gamboa has never been mentioned as an opponent,the Crawford fight has only been put back a few week nothing to worry about book your fight tickets pal :lol::lol:
    I love guys like you thinking size and weight advantage wins you fights,never done Broner any good last week did it, myth blown to bits.
    Please do your homework or pick someone elses brain

    It's a tough fight for Burns can he beat Crawford yes IMO will have to back him up & make him work at a high rate every round.Won't be easy.

    Crawford looks a good fighter to me the second coming no not really Top Rank are happy to sit on the sides to see if he is something or not.Happy to test him overseas.

    Broner lets get one thing straight about him him being big at the weight is BS he should be no where near 147lb.He is a 140lb fighter max the weekend exposed that.If you believe you can sit in front of bangers like Maidana & outman them delusional...which is what the bloke is.

    To add a bit fighters walking around weight between fights if you want longevity at any weight class 10-14lbs over your fight weight is more than manageable.If you have a reasonable prep time & sufficient time to prepare.

    Broner between fights walking around at 170-80lb lazy unprofessional his body his choice.
    Hatton we all know was shifting 3 stone plus at times to make weight.Not safe & your long term health suffers kidneys etc crazy.

    Burns is a diligent pro on that score.

    It was Mkey Garcia who scouted him for TR. Arum asked Garcia if there was any real talent around and Garcia had seen Crawford in the AM's.

    Not many come as skilled as Crawford from Nebraska region.
