Burns was getting battered more then bradley vs the russian. The hayemaker rights were landing clean. Burns really aint that good
Forget about brits and pitythefool, who ever thought he was more than decent? Or what do you mean "that" good?
It's funny how the Burns camp say they scored the fight. Eddie Hearn had Burns only down 4-2 after the first 6 rounds lol.
This reminds me of the time before Broner fought DeMarco.Almost everyone who posted on the subject said Vasquez was the concensus #1 at the weight. Then,he has a **** poor night against Quintero and it was as if he never existed for a while after that. ESB is the home of the most fickle bunch of so called boxing fans out there. Burns was **** poor.He'll need to make big improvements,but he still won,and has proved he is a world level fighter.No one's ever claimed he's elite. Just like no one gave a **** for Rigo when he was knocking Dunne out and stopping Ramos. Now everyone has always known how fabulous he is. Bull****.Now Burns has a poor performance and you all knew he was ****.He's always looked mediocre when he's gone in with mediocre opponents(at least according to the bookies)
I was just messing around. But to be honest i was shocked how average ricky looked here.. Granted his opporsition was also much more capable what i originally thought about him. But what im saying considering levek of the opposition ricky has fought sn far i did not saw all that much on him(at least not what alot of you brits did) to make me think he is world class talent. Good, solid fighter but not world beater. :good
I meant Casey,and although I suspect you knew that,I'll put my hands up to the error. I'm not going around in circles with things you've been told several times and refuse to accept,but however hard you try to deny it,Burns is a world level(see how you tried to twist my words?) fighter. He holds a title belt,he's in the top 3 or 4 of the world rankings at the weight. That means he's a world level fighter, and as I told you yesterday,if he had won easily you'd be saying Gonzalez was a bum. Your main purpose on the General is to hate on Ricky Burns.Saturday must've been like Xmas for you.
It wasn't an injury it's a quit job. He was switch hitting all fight and making Burns miss, is he saying he couldn't do that for 3 rounds and just use one hand

Why is very one hating on Burns? Burns is a legit champ. He kept fighting hard while his challenger quit. Thats why he is a champion and Gonzalez isn't. End of discussion. Props to Burns. Shame on my country man going all the way to the UK to quit while he was up on all cards. Smh. Crazy.
