    What your forgetting is Mensah is as good if not better than Mitchell!
    If we beleived your thoughts how far away is Kevin from world class then? At least Ricky beat Katsitas!
    Get my point?

    It was still a good win from burns but I still feel like Broner was ducked for the 'seemingly' harder task of Katsidis. It was a Frank ****** special, thought that at the time and still think it

    Katsidis is known for giving people problems, having good moments etc but in his career, who of note has he beaten? Strictly domestic class Earl? Mitchell? A 224 year old Jesus Chavez. After that I'm struggling

    Marquez ruined him.

    Still, I expected him to have way too much for Burns so there's no aftertiming from me.

    He beat Escbedo too and some felt he should have got the nod over Diaz.

    Billy will know best but I heard Ricky was trying to move up a weight 3 fights before he actually did, plus he aint a 'ducking' kind of guy.......though it is possible a certain promoter sidestepped that fight

    So the more proven, tested fighter with a reputation for battering all but the elite of his division was lesser than the overrated Broner?

    Idiot.

    Some included his trainer. I didn't even have that fight particularly close.

    I still maintain that Burns would have beat Broner, I hope the fight still happens in the near future, its always good to see a Brit expose a overrated yank.

    Its was always great matching making by Frank getting Katisids for Burns, he would have never of brought him over unless he was sure Burns could beat him and convincingly. Credit to Mensah, Katsidis wasn't drained either so its a better win imo.

    @jft96 thank you for your response

    @dfttyalor, I don't wish to say anything on here that will get me banned so I'll keep my counsel, but I have noticed how snide you are from the safety of your keyboard. No problem
