    As soon as he lost his last fight I predicted on here he would move up in weight, it's just the typical, well-worn excuse. Still, as others have already said, Burns loses his main advantage moving up to 140...

    It's just Burns looking for excuses to avoid the harsh truth that he is finished, first it was the jaw, then he needs to change trainer and now it's weight issues. The reality is Burns lost to Beltran and Crawford and Zlat because they were better then him, no shame in that but Burns was never in Crawford or Beltrans class, the old Burns would beat Zlaticanin but it's just excuses at this stage. Burns is finished as a fighter.

    No, just Eddie Hearn just stepped him up slightly and he got exposed as never being good in the first place.

    The guy is 5 ft 8 - 5 ft 10 boiling himself down to 9 stone 9 it'll take it's toll on the body eventually I wouldn't be surprised to see Ricky looking huge at LWW and punching a bit harder aswell.

    He has a massive frame I still don't know how he managed to get down to 130 and 135 for so long.
