personally i'd like to see Ricky fight Steve Foster jnr . It would be a great fight. A Scotland vs England battle and pretty even and it would keep the belt in the uk .
Some of these posts are shocking people scream about not havin many British champions and wen we get one they slate tha guy some sayin he gets beat off any top ten wat happened to geddin behind the boxer.....Ricky would fight anyone as well use no it's down to the matchmaker not his trainer or in some cases Ricky....it wouldn't matter if Ricky became the best boxer we produced there will be still haters out there finding fault with him....if ya look over the last 15 yrs of fighters who won a world title there first defence wasn't the best plenty big names out there...nut job u just have it in for Billy therefore ya slate Ricky to get to Billy!! The fight with Martinez IMO will be fight of the yr!
Remember this topic! Okay, I'm not sure is Evensen able to pull out the upset but I really think that there is a possibility! But I have seen that you are taking Evensen VERY LIGHTLY.. I think you should be much more worried. Atleast it is sure that the fight will be amazing and I really look forward to see that is Burns able to take those Evensen's bodypunches.. Okay, I just hope we are going to get great fight no matter who wins. I am cheering for Evensen and of course you are cheering for Burns.. May the best man win! :good Greetings from Finland.
No need to pull rank, Billy - he's allowed his opinion. Actually I need to drop you a note at some point after the fight. Will explain all later.
no chance, burns is 5 inches taller then this kid, this is evensens first bout at superfeatherweight, ricky is too big, evensen couldnt get rid of andrey kostin, yet scott quigg a super bantamweight ko'd kostin in 1 round and didn't even land big shots.
Styles makes fights. Kostin never tried to fight with Evensen. Evensen knocked out Jorge Saez who went to distance with Molitor and Saez also scored knockdown with his lefthook against Molitor. With your way of thinking would you say that Evensen is better than Molitor cause he knocked the **** out of Saez? :smooch But we will see who wins! And I don't want to get forum-murdered if Burns wins. Of course I know that Evensen is a big underdog and it would be a big surprise if Evensen can pull out the upset. I am just a nice guy (not ) who hopes too se a good fight!
Hope your correct...got a score on your boy at 6-1!! Dont think Burns has any pop in his punches,thinking Evensen by late stoppage!!!
Hah I just hoped to see a good fight and I made this topic to give some excitment for this fight. And that happened what I was guessing: Couple of die hard fans attacks me. Winner doesn't matter like I said cause I'm not norweigan. I hoped good fight and we got it. :happy But yeah! Fight was very good! I think Evensen showed his class and he gave us damn good fight! Sadly, He was just too small and it was the most merkable point in this fight. That was one of the best fights which I have seen this year and I have to say that Burns is entertaining to watch! Evensen took sometimes pretty bad beating but he came back everytime! Everytime! That was amazing. Before fight many people said that Evensen is ''****'' and everything like that so I have to ask: Do you have anything bad to say about Evensen? He showed amazing heart, gave pressure all night long and fought back and he also got some nice shots in! But I think the sixe difference was just too much. It was the thing which made the difference between evensen and burns. But I'm happy! Evensen made just what I expected: He gave everything what he got and maybe even more. You cant loose with better way than Evensen did. He was brave. BUT THANKS FOR EVERYONE! It was a great fight and I hope that I could see burns fighting again on my screen :bbb
Fair play to Evensen he really had a go and that is all you ask of an underdog. He never stopped going he deserved more then 1 round. I wish him the best of luck. Once again a big underdog puts Audley Harrison to shame, maybe someone should post a dvd of this fight to Harrison "This is how to fight as a major underdog".
