    Nah, this isn't on Burns. He's spent £12k of his own money on camps and trained his arse off only to have his last two fights cancelled.

    His only fault here is putting his faith in a promoter who helped making him champion, but who's power, pull and monetary standing in the sport is allegedly diminishing.

    He'll have to, if he wants big fights.

    Hatton and Joe both had to leave ***** eventually. (Fish eyes wanted Hatton to retire after Kostya, and Calzaghe to quit after Lacy and then Kessler :patsch)

    He's like the British Arum. :yep (DLH and PBF both fulfilling their box office potential after ditching)

    As far as DLH and Arum go, it's proof that tyrants often create their own biggest threats.

    :think Who's to say the parallel won't be drawn yet further, given the ominous shadow cast by Hatton Promotions? :scaredas:

    Agreed. At some point, though, guys have to realize that agents work for them.

    Thanks guys,but Bogo's right.FW only has to put some bum in with Groves and/or Clev and we're ****ed hard in the rectum.

    And Jeff,you really have the wrong end of the stick here mate(and I don't see that often with you)
    Even Morrison is speaking out against the Fish now,and that tells a big story.
    Ricky's probably the biggest victim of all here.
    I knew it would happen but I'd love to see a decent explanation as to how Burns is ducking/a coward when he was fighting a top opponent in a unification bout and has had the rug pulled from under him.
    And spare me the "he should've spoken out" bull****.First,he's not like that(to his detriment) and I didn't see Broner telling HBO to move the Feb date so Burns could get a full camp or he'd be off to Showtime.

    So many children on here with no idea how boxing really works.

    I'd appreciate it if you could post a summary in this thread later.

    Right.Here goes;

    They found out on Friday night/Sat morn that Vaquez was ill and sent a sicknote.

    They fought hard to get fight so Ricky would have better bargaining power with Broner.
    Everything is signed and he made reference to Kell Brook and Matchroom postponments.
    He's sorry for Ricky but this happens sometimes and the fight will happen.
    He could've signed a lesser replacement but this fight is going ahead.
    Ricky and Alex Morrison are very upset and AM is taking it personally and should know better given his experience.
    Sean Gibbons from TR has assured that MV will be there.(Years of the Locust anyone?)

    The sicknote will be posted on BN site tomorrow.

    Keeps digging at Eddie Hearn and says BN put on the two biggest (money wise) shows of last year.

    Defends his column and says it's not a vendetta,just his opinion.
    Hearn goes abroad for cheap option and profit but FWP fight to get home advantage(Hatton-Kostya:zzz)

    FWP is not about the bottom line while Matchroom is:)huh)

    And he needs to clear the air with Alex and Ricky as they're very upset.


    That's about the size of it lads.
