    Alex Arthur is far from finished, & now that hes finally realised that he needs to move up in weight, I expect more brutal KO's to follow, as Alex Arthur was always a world class fighter living inside a weight drained shell.

    & now that Alex has broken off the weight restraints? I expect great things from the Edinburgh man. he knows hes underachieved, & he knows he owes his fans a big win.

    I had burns winning it by 2 rounds, wasnt rickys best performance, but i believe he might have over looked ohara abit, and you have to give ohara credit he gave burns a right fight.

    Far from it Dunky, i've not had a bad word to say about Ricky since he left the Barn and he's still my favorite fighter. You'll still here alot of positivity towards Ricky if you go down the Barn. Most of the guys still go to his fights.

    I also thought that being kept so active was great for him but after last night, obviously something wasn't right as Ricky, usually a fit fighter looked absolutely spend in the last few rounds and you can't deny that, so obviously something is to blame.

    Well done anyway to Ricky. He pulled it out the bag on a bad night and showed his grit and determination by fighting through fatigue.

    ach I was just having a wee laugh with you Mik, you know what Im like:D
    You barn boys are easy wound up when it comes to all things Ricky & Burns, Rab & Bannon, basically if its R&B(geddit?)
    I think the problem is that Ricky Burns suddenly wants to be Scott Harrison, its as simple as that.
    Ricky wants to outman his opponents & knock 'em out Scotty style, but there will ever only be one Scott Harrison.
    I can go into further detail if needed, butt thats all I am saying for now.

    Theres nothing wrong with wanting to be like Scotty Harrison, but the only problem is that there was no tougher ******* in scottish boxing history than Scott Harrison, & its an impossible task to live up to if you ask me.

    I really hope he can move on with his career but I fear he may just be too nice a guy to do so. Still cant believe that fight with Cook

    Too nice a guy?:lol:

    Arthur just thought he had to turn up to beat Cook, never boxed out of first gear & got robbed. Dont listen to biased commentators like McCrory & most of the ****s who post here, these are the same guys who were in screaming that Burns got beat by O'Hara until O'Hara himself said he didnt win the fight... followed by Breen.
    Trust me Uzi or whatever the **** you want me to calll you, Arthur has another big win in him.

    After Rogie got robbed by Parris, do you trust anything officials get up to on these corrupt shores anymore? Cos you shouldnt.
