    Crawford made that look easy, never in the slightest bit of trouble and at times coasted.

    I am still shaking my head at 116-112

    That performance will haunt. Ricky for the rest of his life. He will regret that forver because he never have it his all. I wouldn't question his heart usually but tonight he had no self belief or determination.
    After a fight you can live with a defeat as long as you've given it everything you've got. Ricky never gave that everything he had physically and he will be ful of regret

    Worst version of Ricky lost 8-4, 9-3.
    I thought Crawford was something special ?

    So if Burns had won 2 of the rounds they gave to Crawford, two of the judges would have had it as a draw ?????

    Funny thing is Crawford is decent but not the hype job he proclaimed....just shows how poor ricky was tonight, his form has been poor the last few fights anyway

    Crawford is a man of few words.

    Very disappointing performance, Burns let Crawford back him up far too much and the punches he was throwing were almost slaps with his gloves rather than proper punches, don't remember him landing more than a single shot clean in the fight... Jim Watt didn't give Crawford the credit he deserved either in my opinion, classy display against an obviously out of sought Burns

    I had it 118-100, 4 rounds is a joke

    Burns was massively outclassed but he was last two fights but I still expected him to try and turn it into a slugest and a bit of war, he never once tested Crawford, put him on the back foot, from about round 10 he had to knock him out but just didn't press the issue, he should of been going hell for leather rounds 10, 11 and 12, feel like he didn't go down without a fight, compare to say Froch against Taylor, when all hoped look good he went wild in the 12th and won, Burns just needed to bite on his sheild and press forward
