Really ? The English fans would never do anything as disrespectful as booing another fighters National Anthem , would they ? Ever see the Minter vs Hagler fight ?
Oh dear. Indongo looked massive for his weight, hits hard and doesn't seem to run out of fuel, he's a Joe Gallagher nightmare. I posted earlier that I thought he'd win but I'm definitely wrong about a rematch. I see no point Burns fighting him again.
Hardly a capital offense is it ? Disgusting is seeing a foreign fighter verbally abused and spat at during the ring walk, and i've witnessed that many times.
I was convinced that Ricky would sit back and draw the left hand for the first 3 or 4 rounds. Let Indongo waste some energy then jump on him. I'm not trying to rubbish Indongo's performance, but Burns did absolutely nothing except back up in straight lines and throw the odd right cross ! It would be easy to suggest that Burns should hang them up, but he looked fresh at the end, and never in serious trouble at any stage of the fight, he just looked clueless and never did anything to deter Indongo.
When a fighter does 'nothing ' is it through choice ? He did nothing as he couldn't close the gap and was scared of taking risks and being countered This guy was super fit and controlled the fight easily. Ricky just too basic, his usual size advantage gone
Don't care about national anthems. The boxers are fighting for a lecacy and a living not their country. If I was an elite sportsmen going into a foreign country to face their man i'd expect this sort of thing. It's part of sport in my opinion, fans trying to give their man an edge by any means necessary no matter how little the chances of it working are.
I thought that Grooveongreg. I know he said he'd go again after the fight but how much has he got left. The fella is a warrior though. I agree with Billy too, I know that fella was freakishly big for the weight but even when Burns did land it was like throwing conkers at a Land Rover, they just wasn't hurting him enough to back him up.
I was referring to the previous contest mate not the national anthems. Couldn't give a Monkeys on that score. Just don't like booing lads that give a good account of themselves
