    Broner would have destroyed Burns and he knows it, disagree if you want we all know Broner wanted this fight.

    Sounds like a mixture of bitter grapes with a likely dash of truth.

    Just like people blame ****** for sheltering Joe "I don't want tough fights" Cal, it's never as cut and dry as it seems.

    Ricky and Joe are two entirely different men, the only thing they have in common are both were boxers under Frank Warrren.

    If you look at the fights Ricky has taken in his career, you'll see he is a solid pro who will fight anyone, it's just a shame his name has become associated with Broner, people accuse Ricky of ducking him, Ricky hasn't and wouldn't duck anyone. You need to look at the circumstances behind 'Broner's offer' to Burns and his team for the fight (Not that I'm blaming Broner either, I like both fighters and would love to see the fight)

    People thinking this is worth listening to clearly showing their lack of knowledge.
    Would he have been saying this if Ricky hadn't left him?
    Has he bad mouthed every decent level fighter who has left him?
    Is it news that Ricky knocked the fight back because of the time scale?

    PrincessN saying "Frank telling it like it is"

    Any fan with half an incline of how things work will treasure that quote.
