    I'm guessing Golden Boy on a yank undercard will get the lad more money than the Kelvin Hall. But what do I know

    I think the real questions Billy needs to answer are:

    1) Does Burns have as big an entourage as Brones
    2) Can Ricky Burns comb his hair in the ring as well as Brones does?

    :think

    Unnaturally high? It's only 4 lbs Rob, it didn't make much difference either considering the styles. Broner was hardly bullying him. I agree he didn't win though, so Burns win is better. But if Burns fought PDL he'd be ****ed.

    Well Pirog got 50,000 bucks to fight the better known Daniel Jacobs as the main support to the JMM v Diaz PPV.

    Rest assured guys if as it looks Rickys to fight his Mandatory next we will gladly fight Bromer,were the fight takes place i beleive is down to who wins the purse bids i may be wrong though.Ideally we'd like to fight Fana so Ricky can win the Ring Mag.
    Either way it doesn't bother Ricky or me, we will beat both Fana and Bromer for whatever wherever.
    Once weve beaten one of them Ricky will beat the next straight after then move up imo.

    Surely the fighter has a say in this, Billy?

    this thread is a bit silly. We should be getting behind Burns the same way we will get behind Froch before the Ward fight. In all honesty Burns has way more of a chance of winning. Burns vs Broner is a 50-50

    If Burns beat Broner he would be number 1 in the world in his weight class. something to be proud of as British fans.

    Can anyone remember 3 more pathetic 'world title' title defences than the last couple of Burns fights.

    Billy, as you always seem to have a lot to say, how do you justify it?

    Billy: “Ricky can only fight what’s in front of him. If the best want to step up, then Ricky’s waiting. He’ll fight anyone.”
