Crolla for me. Ok, he has lost his last two fights, but Linares was outstanding on both nights. Burns looked awful against Relikh and Indongo. Doesn't look like his head is in the game anymore.
He was class Billy. Surely he can still box that way, he is older and bigger so maybe he doesn't have fitness fir that style anymore? But if he did rekindle the past, he beats Crolla IMO.
I think Taylor completely schools this version of burns. I cld see the ref or corner stopping the fight. But burns needs as much money as possible at the end of his career due to past troubles with fish eyes.
yeah like i said he shouldnt fight unless cyclone pay him 6 figures like they paid OD, F u c k fish eyes the fraud
It's more a case of Burns should be at lightweight, he's not a light-welter. Which is why he hasn't looked good at the weight, at lightweight he was big at the weight and strong, he doesn't have those advantages now at light-welter. I still think he beats Crolla even at light-welter.
Skippy Burns is finished and he just skips around for money these days. Awful to see and if only Fish Warden did not ruin him financially, he could have retired before the Crawford fight.
Yo You dont know that for sure. Non of us know what he has tucked away and the courtcase against wazza, we dont actualy know for sure that wazza recieved a penny of the damages. A lot of the boxers and certainly someone of Rickys standing should be operating as a limited co any good manager would be instructing there boxers to operate as a ltd, once they start making good money.
Ye Ricky Burns ltd. He was probably paying his wife all the income as a director. Any boxer that gets taken to the cleaners is been really badly managed imo
History informs us that many boxers end up broke for a variety of reasons so it is realistic to believe that Fish Warden wiped out most of his wealth. Promoters and some managers care more about their own wealth.
