If I was a betting man or a rich man ( im neither ) I would back burns to the hilt against Crawford as come fight night due to the hype surrounding him ( Crawford ) the odds for a burns win will be huge. I just cant see Crawford taking the belt away from burns in anyway he decides to fight. If Crawford tries to sit back and box burns will be all over him and rough him up, if he tries to brawl burns has proven to be almost impossible to stop. I hope Crawford keeps being hyped more and more because I might just have to become a betting man and take the easy money!
Burns, since moving to Matchroom, has stepped up twice (he was fighting shams with W.arren, and the two lads he stepped up against were far from world class too) and he got a schooling in both fights.
You cant count the beltran fight as he had a serious injury in the second round, gonzalez I agree was winning comfortably but burns broke him down, that's the point im making I don't think Crawford is any better than gonzalez, burns is so hard to beat and Crawford is no puncher
Bingo. But don't worry Eddie will fix it. The Rican kid had world class potential, he was giving that slow brawler a complete schooling.
Correct he was hitting burns with hayemakers all night and couldn't stop him, burns lands a huge uppercut in the seventh round and gonzalez cries off back home, Crawford will do the same. He is just another hype job like broner and lacy
Crawford is the better fighter. I just hope a fair decision is given. Last thing we need is a hometown robbery. But Crawford is much much better than Burns.
this fight is in the uk. if it goes to decision we already know who's going to win. crawford needs to put this kid to sleep. we saw what happened last time.
You might be right especially how the home town judges robbed Beltran in when he fought Burns. I could see a case in which Crawford was robbed.
