Ricky Burns at a 140lb

Must be a troll thread Peterson and Provodnikov destroy him

He could probably outbox Aydin, Broner would be a good fight at 140

 

Hes got a good work rate, decent height and reach and although not a massive puncher people don't walk through him i think he would struggle against the bigger guys tho. Broner would be a decent fight - if he can get Adiren going backwards we have seen the problem cant transition into fighting of the back foot very well shoulder roll or not and his work rate inst great. I dont know how much that was Maidana making him gun shy tho.

I think Peterson would just be too big and wouldn't respect Ricky's punch power. He should stay where he is.

This is crawfords first time in the big dance and while i think he favorite he wouldn't be the first American to come over unbeaten and hyped and get beat like hoye or lacy

 

i actually think he would have a decent chance against Peterson. that guy couldnt knock the skin off a custard

but Ruslan would knock Burns slack jaw off his face..

 

Dick now Ricky has a slack jaw,you truely should try another sport coz you ain't got a clue what's required to be a top boxer

 

have you been on the bucky?

you said yourself Ricky mouth was open = slack , when it got busted!!!jeeez....

you gotta admit Ruslan hits like a middleweight?

 

it wont end well for ricky at 140 imo

 

I'd love him to move up. So much more bigger fights for him at 140 and being a 3 weight world champion is some achievement. Who was the last British 3 weight world champion?

 

Duke McKenzie

 

When Ricky unifies that's when it's time to move up

 

Muhammad Ali got a broken jaw too. He wasn't too bad was he?

 

Very tough fight ahead Billy, and Ricky hasn't looked good recently, but as always, good luck!

 

SO NEVER IS THE TIME TO MOVE UP THEN LOL:hi:

 

The thing is Terry hes that far ahead of the domestic fighters even if he lost his world title hed still fight world level fighters,do remember mate Rickys not been beat in nearly 7 years and you really need to show a tad bit more respect :good

 

would like to see ricky move up to 140, there are some good fights for him up there.

You lot need to lay off rick a bit, hes one of our better fighters and not an arrogant **** like froch. I swear half of you do it just to get a rise out of bill:rofl:rofl
