    I've never said that!
    Although I beleive that would be an easy fight for Ricky,Paulie is one of the weaker champions imo

    Burns is a simple boxer, average speed, power, reflexes and footwork. He doesn't have anything that will make khan uncomfortable i.e. Huge punching power and constant pressure with a solid chin. There is no way in hell Ricky could have a chance at outboxing khan, there was a reason he won the silver at age 17 to only lose to one of the best amatuers of all time in Kinderlan. Then he beat another silver medalist by a massive UD in kotelnyk. There isn't one person on Burns record that would give khan problems in the slightest bit. But there are a number of fighters on khans resume that could easily beat burns. Burns doesn't deserve the fight anyway I don't see anybody remotely at world level on his resume.

    Didn't Michael Gomez give Amir something to think about in the second round?

    If khan had a chin, a defence and a boxing brain then he would be some force, Unfortunately he doesnt have any of those. Burns doesnt have Khans athleticism but unlike Khan he has a good chin, a good defence and a not too shabby boxing IQ. The only thing for Burns to worry about is Khans speed, if he can deal with it, he wins.

    Khan should never have been fighting at lightweight. Should I be reminding all of those who claim that Khan doesn't hit hard enough to stop Burns that Carl Johanneson had him on the deck three times.

    But all the same, keep clutching at straws.

    It really does surprise me how someone's old reputation can catch up with them. It's like people think knockout's don't happen in this game and if they do, the other man has a bad chin. I'd like to see how Burns deals with guys like Maidana, Peterson, Judah and Garcia's power and let's see if he has a chin then.

    So much ignorance around. No chin is built for punches! It's down to liabilities, people!

    Intriguing fight. Khan probably takes a close decision though.
