    Derry Matthews just posted on Twitter that Ricky is moving back Down to super feather weight?

    Surely he can't do that and be affective he's a massive lightweight!

    I'm sure Billy can give us a yay or nay when he see's this thread.

    He was doing super-feather until 3 and a half years ago, didn't enter my mind at all that he would ever move back down especially after playing with the idea of going up to light-welter?!

    Ricky needs to retire, full stop. He's done.

    Ricky's confirmed on twitter it's not true.

    In his words... he'd have to chop off a few limbs to make SFW !

    Hearn wants rid of Burns ASAP & ideally not on a Matchroom show. The legal fcuk ups plus his poor form makes him a liability

    Ricky is shot, and has lost any desire he had for a fight. He's in danger of receiving an absolute tanking if he continues.

    This is nonsense.

    Do you know Ricky personally?
    He's told you that he's "lost any desire he had for a fight" has he?

    If you wanted to argue that Ricky has not looked at all good since he beat Kevin Mitchell then that is a valid argument but your statement of opinion as fact is moronic.
