    Dunky mate,

    dont know why you are ranting, this will be a good fight, i expect Burns to win,

    but i dont think this will be the walkover you think it will be, Crolla was going to fight Morales, so he is worthy to fight Burns,

    this is almost a 50-50 fight, and great for british boxing, and a very good match -up

    and if Burns wins, even better for Scottish boxing,

    I love that boxing fans have to "settle" for not AS **** match ups. Our expectations are so low it is frightening.

    So is this fight off now? JOhn Murray? or is that asking to much for John to take another beating?

    I'd be shocked if it is Murray.

    Great fight!!! As Pacquiao and Mayweather doesnt look like happening this is probably the next best fight in boxing. Would have thought this would be in the summer at Wembley or Ibrox or something though?
     
  11. Whilst it's not the fight we want (a Ring ranked opponent) at least it's not another shitty ''can't punch but never been stopped'' turd from somewhere exotic.

    Crolla has a bit of form, though he was a bit underwhelming last time out, reminded me of Pacquiao vs Clottey, one guy was content to lose in return for not being hammered.

    With Burns beating Katsidis, he at least should be mixing with the top 5 in the division immediately. It's not as if Allegedly has to worry about him facing punchers, he's faced two dangerous bangers and beaten both relatively easily.

    Crap fight for me, but very predictable.

    Good British title fight, no more.

    My thoughts exactly.

    You beat Katsidis, & then the 'reward' is Crolla & if you get past him then its fighting the guy who Katsidis spanked in London? Its shocking stuff:-(

    I just hope with all of my heart that this 'cunning plan' fails like Baldricks always did.
