Burns steps in at late notice to give debutant an exhibition match

!!! Goes to show you the difference between amateur boxing then and now, that game prepared you for the Pros.

Teofilo Stevenson Vs Floyd Patterson anyone?

 

any news on his oppenent yet for liverpool it said in the daily record that it would be announced this week i know eeryone keeps saying it is Nicky Cook

 

I spoke to Billy at the Joe Frazier night in Glasgow, told me it was Cook that Ricky would be facing

 

Aye mate there was some good patter with the crowd as well, good to see young Sean getting a good hand from the crowd for standing his ground throughout the fight.

Ricky looked like he was 2 divisions bigger than him.

 

Thats coz he his Seans a SBW and Rickys a SFWatsch

 

Billy told you Cook was one they were looking at!

 

Billy ,why you talking about yourself in the 3rd person ?

 

Well done Ricky Burns, what a down to earth bloke.

 

He sounds like a class act

 

HE IS A CLASS ACT:happy AND YOU COULDN'T MEET A MORE DOWN TO EARTH GUY.

Never heard or seen anything to dislike about Ricky as a person. Really looking forward to going to the Echo in July to see him.
