    Who knows!

    But his two performances with Hearn have been awful.

    Crawford is the harder fight, beltran would have been beaten had the injury not happened.
    Ricky is in a good place just now, good sparring, happy in the gym no distractions and he's really looking forward to this contest

    Again you go down the negative route mate,look at the facts
    1. Gonzalez was a excellent fighter granted he won the first six rounds but Ricky showed grit,desire and determination and won.
    Similar can be said about Quiggs fight in the draw he clearly lost the first 5 rounds finished strong and got a draw but ricky managed to force his opponent to quit
    2. Try boxing with a broken jaw then come back to me and tell me you managed to see out the game plan.

    Burns would have won if not for the injury? How did Burns break his jaw?

    you show me the great punch that done the damage in round two?
    Ricky got hit by a left hook while his mouth was open.

    Burns will win, i really have changed my mind on this one, at first i was very confident Crawford dominates, but now when i think about it, Crawford has never been tested, he is fighting away from home in a hostile atmosphere, Ricky will be better than his last 2 of that i'm sure, clearly he wasn't his best in his last 2 but by the sounds of it from what we have been hearing he is back to his best, How will Crawford deal with things when his back is to the ropes and Ricky has him under pressure, i've a feeling this will be like the Martinez fight, a fight most don't think Burns can win but then he wins and actually very clear. Burns PTS

    What I'm going on about is in the Gonzalez fight Ricky came back from a bad start and found a way to win and folk knock him unbelievable .
    What part of that don't you understand mate or are you just another ignorant dude

    Why do people hate on BN? You should be thankful you have someone willing to put their views out there and answer the questions you have.

    This is the problem with keyboard warriors unfortunately Billy, they think they know best when they havent got a ****ing clue, I cant imagine the pain Ricky went through with his jaw like that and complete the fight (getting through it was largely down to you). Ortiz quit after how many rounds???

    Yes he got injured Ricky but as a fighter Ricky is way better than Beltran.
