    I don't think theirs anything lucky about going toe to toe with a known puncher, and thus taking the wind out of his sails as he did in the 7th. He then went on to win the next two rounds. Burns was in the ascendancy.

    The word 'luck' was used multiple times in the article. Even the breaking of Gonzales wrist - if it happened - Gonzales said it happened when he tried to land a body shot. The way a fighters hands are wrapped, that shouldn't happen. More than likely Ricky brought his elbow down on his wrist. That's not luck. That's part of the game, one of the things trainers will tell you to do, break **** with your elbow, the pointy part of the arm. It's something that's more respected in Muay Thai but it's a skill in itself, not luck.
