Love Ricky to do it and hope he pulls off one last big performance but not sure he will. Ricky leaving billy to go to sims is one of the reasons I think it's a bad idea for boxers to leave their coaches who got them where they are.
FFS just realised this was next weekend. Another clash with WBSS. Will defo prioritise Eubank Jr after Burns stank the joint out against Indongo.
This is not a bad domestic fight if it was only that but it's not hearn has always got to milk it by talking world title shots
I think this may turn out to be a great fight! Good clash of styles, both have something to prove, neither are done yet. Neither can really bang, I can see them doing this all over again if the fight entertains. I favour crolla to get his hand raised at the end in a close fight
Swaying towards Crolla points now. I like them both but would love Burns to win. Either way I'm looking forward to it, should be a great scrap.
Burns has a fantastic jab and Crolla has little head movemnt. They are both durable. The more i think about it the more im leaning to burns. Burns winvon pts for me
I have to go with Crolla by decision, Burns looked dreadful last time out. I doubt I'll watch this anyway, I think it will be a complete snooze fest.
Crolla on points. Apart from being difficult to put away, Burns has little left to offer. Crolla is no world beater, but will have enough to edge out Ricky.
Difficult one. I can't understand ( I can actually, money) why Burns who moved to 140 because he struggled with weight, has 3 fights at 140 & now agrees to move to 135 when he clearly has problems making it. I read it was supposed to be a catch weight originally, Burns will probably be drained. Crolla body work slows him down, I think Crolla wins on points. He should have fought Taylor at 140, okay, he'd lose but still make money & not have to drain his body. Peak Burns & at 135, I take Ricky every day.
