Burns broken jaw

This content is protected

 

Burns' jaw was moving up in down in the post fight interview so I'd be surprised if it's a clean break.

 

bull**** he lost fight end of.doesnt matter if your a home or away fighter you deserve a fair shake.anyone who says burns won or it was a draw need to re-evaluate the mental state of mind.and im a burns fan but after last night i hope he loses the title in next fight.hearn will protect him even more now

 

Who's that in the x-ray?

 

His talking was clearly affected in the post fight interview. He looked out of sorts again last night. When he fights a big and active lightweight he seems to struggle. Gonzalez was winning before pulling out, Beltran looked as though he did more than enough last night. Ricky doesn't have the power to keep strong solid opponents off him. Beltran looked solid last night. Saying that Beltran should have got him out of there. Ricky would have won some of the close rounds, Beltran won some more clearly, including the knock down.

 

Burns according to some posters on other boxing sites.

 

Props to Burns for not quiting and showing amazing heart to see it through to the end. Arthur Abraham did it vs Edison Miranda too so I take my hat off to both guys for what must've been agony.

However, we all know Burns lost the fight.

 

No one has said he deserved to win or that he deserved a draw, all that was said was that Burns deserves some credit for fighting on with a broken jaw.

 

If he did'nt break his jaw he would have smashed the guy inside 6, no doubt.

Real true warrior heart, deserved WC and cant wait until he gets fixed up and fights on.

Take Gamboa or Vazquez over to the UK (if there brave enough) and give them a real rest against Ricky instead of fighting bums.

 

Agreed!

Regardless of result, Burns deserves full respect for fighting ten more rounds with such an injury.

I did wonder why Burns was holding so much and quite obviously such an injury would **** up your game plan!!!

Considering the fact that Beltran only "won" by two-three points despite Ricky suffering such an injury with 10 rounds left in the fight, one would strongly favour Burns in a rematch.

Let's hope Burns makes a full (physical and mental) recovery.

 

The consistently awful Jim Watt actually pointed out early that Burns may be holding so much because of an injured jaw, well spotted Jim


I didn't like to see Beltran robbed again though, it just makes Ricky look bad and makes people root against him

 

Burns could be out for at least 12 months and has a mandatory with Terrance Crawford due in the next few months so there's no chance he's hanging on to his title.

More likely he'll be stripped and Crawford vs Beltran will be made for the vacant title and Burns will get a crack at it if he makes a full recovery and gets the medical all clear to box again which could be in doubt.

 

Amazing courage and mental strength sure he lost the fight but he didn't judge it he doesn't deserve **** he deserves respect
