    I assure you he's took better shots than the one that broke the jaw, there is no issue with the jaw whatsoever,Ricky's been sparring great with Luke Campbell and Tyrone Nurse nurse this week

    im not sure on this one. i live in the usa and people speak big about crawford but ive seen him a couple of times and didnt impress me. he has good boxing skills but is very hesistant to engage in anything and is always on his back foot ,doesnt hit especially hard either and not sure about his chin or gas tank as never tested by any one real good yet.
    im going for burns to outwork and outhustle him to a ud

    Apparently he didn't used to but he's said in the lead up to this one he has/will watch so here's hoping it helps.

    I know asking the trainer for a prediction is taking the p**s but it was worth a go!

    Burns has had a good run, but the wheels have appeared to be coming off in his last two fights. Just a hunch, but based on the way Crawford has comported himself when fighters have stepped to him, I think he'll put the hammer down when Rickey attempts to surge after dropping the first few rounds and gradually pick him apart en route to a late rounds stoppage.

    Surely its better to watch a fighter before fighting him, look for weak spots, common punches etc ? Very surprised he hasn't in the past, good news he is doing this for the crawford fight

    This will be a great fight between to class acts, I just feel Ricky's experience will stand him in good steed,he will take his knocks and deliver more

    He left that to me and in all bar the gonzalez fight we done well, he never boxed remotely like that in the six fight I had of him.
    Beltran is what he is and would have took a beating from Ricky had the injury not happened
