Ricky Burns vs Judge Dread on March 1st

IMO when Ricky loses to Crawford, and providing Mitchell keeps winning a rematch is on the cards.

 

I think Kevin's got the talent to win a world title but IMO when Ricky beats Crawford he defo needs a unification fight not someone he stopped in 4
What you fail to admit is Ricky is way way above the other LW in the UK

 

If he wins then yes go for a unification, makes sense.

I'm just saying if he loses then it could be an interesting rematch providing Kevin keeps winning and maintains his head.

Ricky is a champion so he is above everyone else in the UK agreed.

 

Even if both keep winning I'm not sure it would be a big fight because of the first fight but eh why not

 

You never know with Kevin, his performances are more up and down then a Thai hookers nickers

 

Just goes to show that it's not just about talent in boxing if you want to get to the very top. Ok we know there are some exeptions with luck etc.

Mitchell has the skills to be at the top but for me he didn't have the desire or workrate all through his career. The changing trainers and going off the rails a bit certainly didn't help (he did didn't he or am I tripping ha?)

If he had the desire and application all through his career as, and dare I say it, a Ricky Burns, then I think he would have fulfilled his dream of being a world champion.

Sadly I think it's too little too late for him now though.

 

Yep you need talent and hard work

 

Bob Arum is seeking better judging for Burns-Crawford.

Arum told AWE, the network airing the fight in America "Iv'e talked to Paco Valarcel, the head of the WBO, and he assured me that there'll be better judges for the Burns-Crawford fight".

I think Burns will need to do a proper job on Crawford on March 1st because if it's kind of close i see Crawford getting the nod.

 

The issue here is, if the head of the WBO is openly saying there will be "better judges" then what action have they taken against the previous ones?
