    I don't know, he's going to fight Paulie so that's plenty to talk about even if it's a pretty **** fight.

    Here's how Burns' career will pan out without Broner:

    Fights more fighters no one really gives a **** about; ages. Fights an up and coming guy no one gives a **** about, gets beaten.

    Fades into obscurity.

    Getting knocked by Broner was the best resume booster he could've had.

    Do you want to recant Dave or will I just take no reply as an apology and admission of shameful boxing knowledge mate?

    Do you think there's a top 10 fighter at 147-160 that doesn't want to fight Floyd Mayweather?
    Do you think there's a top 4 or 5 guy at either weight that would fight him without ample time to prepare?

    Ricky had already trained for a fight, needed a week or two off after it was cancelled and would have wanted a 12 week camp for a fight of that magnitude

    I don't think it's too big an ask a such, he will just be huge underdog in everyones eyes, his trainer is 100% convinced he would win and i think at worst he would give Broner his toughest fight to date by a mile
