    it seems that he boxes the same way with or without a broken jaw....out of range,stretching and leaving his jaw hanging out to dry...

    has the fat man been on to explain away this one or is he stilll thinking up his excuses ?

    i think the last 3 performances from Burns may be down to Nelson getting him to wind his punches up more to get as much power as possible. this in turn turned Ricky into a dreadful fighter that swings himself far too open and leaves big holes in his defence.

    the overreaching is hideous as well.

    Ricky would be wise to get back to his boxing and get himself a new trainer. Billy can't do anything else with him at this point. his ability as a trainer at this level leaves a lot to be desired.

    The Ricky and Billy team have achieved far more than anyone could have reasonably expected....I find the previous comments bizarre.

    i noticed billy telling ricky to go for body and ricky saying he was getting smacked trying to.....no response from the fat man

    fair play to them though they got to the top but its harder to stay there

    6,752 posts you'd think you'd know a tad more about boxing but clearly you haven't, sad really.

    As much as Billy talks **** in regards to how good Burns is, some people are really flogging a dead horse here. Is there really any need to rub it in?

    welcome back fatso..

    so was the game plan the same as the Beltran and Gonzalez fights?get battered and hope for a miracle?

    i must admit i have only seen Rickys last few fights and he has been well out his depth , i am sure domestically he will look a lot better.

    i honestly wasnt trying to rub anything in....Burns fought almost exactly the same against Crawford as Beltran but that was supposed to be because of a broken jaw?


    it is a boxing forum though ?

    Well mate, i said only week or so ago that the **** you got was bang out of order, you actually said it wasnt hate u got but banter, and unsurprisingly the haters are having a hoot.

    Dinnae let it bother you, end of the day you're the trainer of a 2 weight world champion, not many can say that, and keyboard fannies in particular have no clue of the work, time and knowledge required to achieve in this sport.

    Out of his depth??? He is hardly a bum ffs!!! You admit you only saw his last few fights therefore maybe check previous fights before talking such ****.......he has had a few world title fights!!!!
