    styles make fights, Burns did the business against Mitchell when everyone thought it was gonna be a 50/50 fight.
    Mitchell is a very good fighter, really good to watch, but Burns had his number so a rematch would be pointless, Mitchell beat Murray but that don't mean nothing as Murray fights very differently to Mitchell. I think Burns vs Murray would be a cracking fight, Murray would give him problems, obviously I thnk Murray probbaly needs to beat someone decent first to shake off the cobwebs, but I'd love to see this fight :good would be an all british war imo

    Ricky on form, john would hardly land a punch on him and get stopped that the truth of the matter, I'd have liked John to retire hes had to many hard fights and you want him togoin against the best fighter he'd have faced

    I agree with billy,this comeback of johns is pointless,he ships far too much at top level.its a sad position to be in when you still have a dream,and also need to earn,but you'l inevitably go nowhere.

    in all honesty I think murray should box @light welterweight now and he doesn't deserve a shot at ricky right now

    funny thing is you can get warnings for starting threads about the silliest post you've put up but can write stuff about blacks and Asian people?

    billy as per with his delusional posts , i personally think burns was promoted excellently by ****** giving him winnable fights , fact is against a half decent beltran ,who might i add is nowhere near top 5 in the world ,burns was destroyed , people seem to forget it was beltran who broke his jaw add in the previous fight , where again ricky was schooled for 8 rounds before the guy quit .... burns best win on paper was kats . but he failed a brain scan and got beat on espn fnf against a ghanian journeyman in his next fight , eddie knows now ... but frank knew from the get go , you dont get beat by alex arthur and carl jo , and then become elite . i like ricky a lot , but to me he is a massive overachiever and should be congratulated on ever winning a world title , let alone 2 weights , he reminds me of a lightweight darren barker

    ... and by that i mean there both lovely guys , decent boxers , with heart and grit , but neither seems a natural fighter , more like 2 athletic guys whove been taught to box

    Sorry pal your miles out,Beltran would have lost heavily if it were not for Ricky's injury, Ricky is a better all round fighter than Darren Barker fact!
    Froch was getting well beat by Taylor he found a way so did Ricky against Gonzalez.
    Judge Ricky against Crawford, you fail to mention great wins against Kats who smashed all the other Brits he fought Moses ex world champ and a very good fighter in Kevin.
    It pisses me off when nuggets like you always try and find negatives all the time, Do you think we're not aware there was issues in the Gonzalez fight, but to give a guy a hard time that just fought a close fight against a guy for 10 rounds with a broken jaw is embarassing:thumbsup:huh

    Yes he's very good but if John was ever going to win a world title that was his chance against a guy who will be in front of him all the time
