I presumed it would be on the Katsidis v Mitchell card, but it's looking less and less likely as time goes on. It still could be on, but it's only 6 weeks away now. I wouldn't be surprised if it doesn't happen the way things are going.
so after the WBO saying he couldnt take a warm up fight in December, February or March.........he can now take one in May. LOL
This is boxing fella, they make up the rules as they go along nowadays. No wonder our sport is in the gutter.
According to Box Rec both Martinez and Burns have fights coming up. Martinez will defend his title against Gonzalo Munguia on the same card as Vasquez-Bedak and Calderon-Casimero (cracking bill if true). And Burns is on the Mitchell-Katsidis card in a ten rounder. Probably agreed to delay the fight for now and allow the guys to see some action, makes more sense then just have these guys on the sidelines whilst an agreement is hammered out.
One thing you will notice about 'our' Billy Nelson NO MAS, he never gives us any exclusive info sadly enough, seems us commoners are beneath him:| The info here is solid enough already, it was reported in the 'scottish' Sun today, & there was even a few quotes from Ricky Burns himself. Sadly enough, I left the copy at my sisters house by mistake, or would have put in the full story & quotes I normally do. Maybe the story is on the Suns website, but I cant be arsed checking:deal
err, I didnt say he wasnt spot on bro! I just said he wasnt a man for breaking exclusive news on here! Put it this way, when we have to rely on the Sun for exclusive news about his fighter instead of getting it straight from the horses mouth... Says it all really:deal :smoke
Says on boxrec Burns's on the Mitchell card opponent unknown .Would be good if they could get 2 world title fights on that.
