    I would like to see him fight someone like Richard Commey, good record but beatable.

    Based on his last performance, i don't see any reason why he shouldn't be fighting for a World Title.

    There are far less deserving fighters getting big fights most weekends.

    I still think theres a fair bit left in the tank, and i'd written him off months ago.

    He didn't deserve the shot in the first place. He was lucky to get another chance ad blew it. He should have to work his way back up like everyone else.

    Don't think he's fought at the hydro, would love to go to a big fight in there.

    Ricky never fought at the Hydro he was supposed to fight Crawford there but they couldn't get the date so it had to be moved to the SECC i'm sure that was what happened anyway.

    How about for his rebuilding fight against Zlaticanin when he needed the support of the Scottish people?

    Didnt deserve a large crowd as his form was terrible, people go to be entertained. And Zlaticanin was meant to be a gimme to get his confidence up. Scottish fans like value for money, always remember when Scott Harrison was world champion and packed out Braehead when he had to fight his **** mandatory Kebede the place was half empty because fans know it was a **** fight

    A good record and the style that could make Burns look good, he needs an easier fight.

    I agree but he is not really a name mate. Also could he get motivated for coney after boxing at world level.
