    I'm not disagreeing, but in the 3 previous performances Ricky was second best on each occasion, clearly wasn't progressing and was developing bad habits (sitting on the ropes for example).

    People will blame Sims, but we've all known for a while Ricky is fairly limited. At his age you can't teach him a new style. Similar to the Hatton and Roger Mayweather bollocks.

    Burns is completely done. Too many tough fights have taken their toll.

    Just goes to show all the slagging off Billy nelson has had on here about Burns, (me included)

    Burns is better off with Billy shows what a top trainer he is, he would have won and been better with Billy.

    And I dont think Billy is the type of guy to gloat about it, but if it was any of us tossers on here we would and will

    Crawford is far from shite but it would make you question just how good he is , especially going into the Gamboa fight tomorrow before tonight I would have definitely picked Crawford now I'm not sure !

    Sunbath on the ropes good.

    If I had a cheeseburger for everytime Ricky lay against the ropes, my legs would be getting amputated before billys.

    Your right his last 3 fights have been poor, but I actually think this loss is far worst. That guy was awful had only one punch which you could see coming a mile away and he still beat burns.

    Mitchell, Crolla they would beat Burns now.

    There was zero chemistry between Burns and Sims last night.
    That's not going to work IMO, if he's going to continue should be back with Billy.

    It was in reference to his last 3 performances.

    Burns was stealing a living for a long time.
