    good fight, but he surely must be a little dissapointed going from world title shot to domestic title? Still, I think he would have lost and this might put him higher in the other org's rankings (I havent a clue how rankings work, but I would assume so)

    no idea, dare say we will find out in due course, but rumour is that a venue couldn't be decided.

    Burns vs Martinez is a stupid ****ing fight anyway. Burns has done NOTHING to earn a shot at any world title.

    Wouldn't read to much into this yet...Boxrec ain't the most reliable source.

    Boxing Scene just posted saying it's on but doesn't have anything to say other then it's on so again wouldn't read to much into it. Billy Nelson will be able to confirm what's going on anyways.
