    burns is a very underated technician, good fighter but kinda like a better escobedo in a lot of ways.....also has no power to keep broner off of him. I'd favour Burns to outbox Demarco and Vazquez, 50/50 vs Abril but Broner KO's him 10/10 imo. Broner will show him no respect and walk through him.

    I think Burns can keep the fight competive for aslong as it goes, Burns is the type of fighter who doesn't do anything that makes you say wow. But he has mastered the basics down to a point that he is harder to beat than it looks on tape.

    Burns lack of headmovement is his biggest weakness in my opinion.

    Also now is the best chance for Burns to cause an upset, since Broner is going to continue to improve the longer it is untill the fight comes of the harder it is to see Burns winning.

    I hope Burns can win since I am a fan but Broner is most likely going to be the winner.

    Broner/Gamboa would be a great fight.

    Sadly,much as I'm a fan of Ricky,I can't see a win for him,but his best chance would be Broner not taking him seriously.
    Broner is a fabulous talent,but for me he's displaying signs that he already thinks he's the #2 superstar in the game,and at the same stage career-wise,I just can't see Floyd showing the lack of discipline or commitment that Broner's displaying.The lack of an apology was real gutter-level ****,and any comparisons with Floyd are a million miles off the mark IMO.

    Don't see many picking Ricky to win.In fact,I'd say when it comes to Burns,you get some of the most measured posting on any UK boxer.

    I think both Broner and Gamboa should pick up a belt at 135 before they face off, it's a big fight that needs selling because these guys aint going to step in the ring to face each other for $500k, they will want atleast $2 million each.

    :lol:

    oh wow. tried to keep it cool, and respectful with ya, but this is just too much.

    Burns ducked Broner and everybody with common ****ing sense knows it.

    First time I've ever encountered a "burn-****." keep this up and you might be on my ignore list for having a severe case of "DKSAB"

    :deal. There are several great fights at 135 for him. "The Problem" should thrive in this division.

    they should just take the 500k now, arum tried to do that with gamboa and lopez and he got burned.

    ..then again, gamboa turned down 1.2 mil against rios so this fight may not happen for awhile.

    Ricky Burns, no doubt!

    Expose that nobody.

    At only 22, Broner may not really be ready for the cream of the crop, but there is no doubt whatsoever that he will cream Burns.
