Yeah I think Campbell beats him, I just find it funny that in every situation you focus on the negatives of one fighter instead of the positives of another. You'd never say something along the lines of 'Campbell has looked good so far' it's always along the lines of 'burns has looked like dog**** lately, he's ****, he's a ****' You're a very angry man
Ricky burns IMO achieved everything Jim did, Ricky won more world title fights and both were beaten by exceptional champions no disgrace
Certain statistics on paper might state that Burns was better than Watt, but realistically I feel that Burns slightly over achieved, was quite lucky to get through a couple of his fights, but at the end of the day both great fighters who did their country proud.
I don't know if you were around here but ricky burns use to be talked of in the same breath as Hatton. People were saying he was going to destroy the likes of Vazquez and Broner and Hearns saying he was the best scottish boxer ever! I tried my darnedest to talk sense into these drunken nuthuggers but all I got was abuse. Now you can understand my frustration that even after getting his ass whopped multiplie times, his fanboys still persist in believing that Burns is going to clean up his division after he gets over some injuries
Listen you little wan4er I am gonna find out we're your from you little excuse for a man and when I do we will see how much of a man you are face to face, you faceless di4k
The bottom line is Ricky achieved what he done, see all this he over achieved under achived pish, he fought 10 world title fights end of, FFS this forum is way off the scale at times, facts are facts
How professional. For a guy in your public position within the sport some of your conduct on here is nothing short of embarrassing, god knows why any boxer would want asssociated with someone spouting this inane drivel.
maybe if you were getting personal insults directed at you by someone who hasn't an understanding of my sport you'd change your mind . His conduct is shocking and he should simply be banned has he is just a complete negative person regarding boxers/boxing. I apologise for my rant but that's the way it is
I take that on board billy, it would be ****ing annoying. You need to not take the bait though my friend as that us his modus operandi lol.
In all fairness, when he faced the elite he lost, and lost badly. He struggled with fighters who weren't elite. Never faced the rest of the elite, either. Ricky did overachieve, it just kills you to admit it.
