    I wouldnt worry about some imaginary threat from some obscure fighter like Burley. I've seen him on video and theres nothing to hide from - nowhere NEAR the gifted athlete Robbie was

    Burley was less of a joke than guys who beat Robinson like LaMotta and Turpin

    I doubt if any fighter ducks an opponent. The manager may at times, but not the boxer.
