Look im from London and i support Burns when he fights but he got lucky against Gonzales and lost to Beltrain the world knows it. The division is red hot with some great fighters, but i believe Crawford is the top fighter in the division he impresses me more than anyone. Paulus Moses was a good win but I dont think he beats Crawford or Gonzales. Time will tell and in a years time you will be saying " you know what that Reevo bloke was right".. Put your house on it or ask Janes Chicken on here what she thinks, caz were on the same wave length. Terrance Crawford is one of the best prospects that has come up and it is like he has been forgotten which is not like America to hype a fighter..
He couldn't even get Kimov out of there in 6 and Klimov has been wobbled countless times by non punchers :roll: How about we see Crawford in a test first? I don't see him even beating Denis Shafikov, certainly not Vazquez, let alone being the top fighter in a red hot division And I thought Adrien Broner was supposed to be the next Mayweather?
He schooled Kimov and won every round by the judges, you cant blow them all out. Certainly not Vazquez ? We will see wont we.. Broner will never be the next Mayweather..
whoever ricky fights he needs to pull the finger out. he didnt box the way he shouldve against beltran, seems a bit to eager to get into a brawl recently, also noticed him givin nelson a bit of backchat in the corner during the fight.
No you can't blow them all out, but if you can't blow out Klimov, who gets wobbled constantly, you are hardly going to blow out Burns
But you just said America weren't hyping him? HBO ARE hyping him, and I think that vid does him a good service in terms of talking, because quite frankly, and this will always be his number one detraction, as unfair as it is and no matter how good he is, playing Devils advocate here, the guy just cannot talk,have you heard any of his interviews? he is as boring as unbuttered toast when you listen to him speak And no, that shouldn't matter, but it does I have accused Broner of trying too hard, but ****, at least he tries
Wasn't impressed with Crawford against Klimov after round 1 Klimov just stood with his hands up and Crawford was content to throw single shots until the last 10 seconds of the last round when he let his hands go! If he'd let his hands go earlier he would have got Klimov out of there, Love him or hate him Burns is the type of guy you need to work against you can't just throw single shots in there he makes you work for a win but he needs to get back to boxing ever since the Mitchell fight he seems like he's trying to bang all these guys out of there when he needs to go back to what was working.
I'm glad Hearn at least wants to do right by Beltran. It's clear his own promoter would prefer to push him to the side, even though HBO's already proven bound and determined to subject fans to his tedium whether he has a belt or not.
Sorry American FANS are not hyping him, you dont see much in the Boxing forum do you? He is a talent in my opinion and no he;s not gonnar win a oscar for acting, but you cant have it both ways hes just a ordinary guy who is working up the ladder.. I might add i could name alot worse people who come across bad on camera you dont need to come on there giving it the billy big bollocks to see tickets like that clown Broner.. :good
