He was ultimately humiliated in his own back yard. How much worse does it get than being completely schooled? I bet he'd rather have been knocked out than outclassed for every second of every round.
When frauds infest the sport in droves that make the Calais situation look like a picnic, then it's hard to find anything good to say about them. Burns already got beltroned and crawford exposed him and before that Gonzalez was schooling him until he gassed What chance does he have against Campbell?
Burns is totally finished the only thing he has to offer is a solid chin- Campbell would school him 11 rounds to 1. That African fella the other night was so bad he didn't even know how to punch properly yet Burns still looked like garbage..
When you lot going to admit Burns is finished, your hanging on to performances of years ago. Its over :yep:yep Crawford beat him for 12 rounds without breaking a sweat
you said destroyed, no cu*nts ever destroyed him u mug, destroyed is being punched about for a few rounds then knocked out Mitchell fight springs to mind.... Naebdys ever destroyed the Coatbridge boy �� beat and outclassed yes, try not to foam anymore girls
i have to disagree, there is more than 1 meaning of destroyed and against crawford he was destroyed! if you dont win a round and landed a handful of shots against your opponent that is classed as being destroyed!! it also works with being outclassed, if someone is beaten up like cleverly was against kovalev then it would not be out of place to say he was totally outclassed. i think you are taking the word destroyed as something personal when it is just another way to say outclassed. there is no shame in what happened with ricky against crawford. ricky imo is defo finished, i wanted to give him another chance after his brave showing against figueroa but at the weekend he was very unimpressive against a guy that was there to make ricky look great but once again he jsut didnt look right, imo luke campbell would outbox ricky fairly easily and probably look more impressive than he did against coyle, ricky cat fight the way coyle did and he doesnt have the handspeed to outbox luke! ricky throughout his career has looked good against guys who come to fight ie martinez/katsidis/mitchell unless he hooks up with billy again and his hands will be faster than khans!! lol sorry billy only kidding!!
So far not one person in this thread has agreed with you. Silly, stupid sikeside makes a **** of himself once more.
Burns has never been good. The same people that say he is good think that the likes of Fury and Froch have got skills (you would NEVER teach a newbie technique by watching those three) or are Scottish, simple. Ricky struggled badly with Beltran. Beltran is known for being Manny's sparring partner - that's it. Crawford SCHOOLED him without breaking a sweat. It was a whitewash. The thing is when Ricky has a bad performance all you hear is "He had an injury, he had problems, but you should've saw him in sparring though!". Sparring means jack squat. And when he does perform it's usually against people aren't that good. Ricky's grit and heart is undeniable. He's got as much as Carl Froch. But he just is not a skilled boxer. Talk about how he is this, that and the other, all you want. But he isn't top 3 in the country. Gamboa, Broner, JMM - They'd have all killed him.
:deal It's because he is scottish and hearns told the scots that burns was their greatest ever fighter, so they were desperate and drunk to be believe his words that Burns was some kind of savior. It's sad, but no matter how much Burns gets battered by elite fighters they will still believe he was just unlucky, Burns also knows this, this is why he cried about his jaw after beltran exposed him - he only needs to say he was injured if he loses and his scottish fanboys will fall for it
