    Bill, I have already conceded the fight should probably be in Scotland, as Ricky has the belt. But I think it makes more financial sense in London that's all. I know you, Ricky, and Mitchell are certainly not scared of each other. So let's make the fight!

    End of the day, if Burns V Rios happens wherever - Good
    If Burns V Mitchell happens wherever - Good

    If Burns / Mitchell V Some Schmuck happens don't tune in, there's plenty else to do.


    And until the fights are announced just take anything that comes out of Fwank's, Billy Nelson's, Mitchell's, mouth ....with a large pinch of salt.

    How about you fight someone world class Billy, and stop wasting your time on Mitchell who is Euro level.

    Alot of people on here dont mind the Mitchell fight, cant keep everyone happy! If he doesnt fight him people say he's ducking him but you think he shouldnt bother with him or your just on the wind up!

    Nowt stranger than boxing fans!

    Because some would accuse him of ducking Mitchell, that's what this place is like and I dare say a few other forums are the same.

    I've read comments that he ducked Broner but some forget that he actually went on to fight a more world level proven opponent.

    I don't mind the fight, it just doesn't excite me, and is a step back for Burns. Billy keeps raving about 'Burns is world class' 'we want to fight world class people' Yet still wants the Mitchell fight, Kevin is European level IMO.

    If Ricky doesn't fight Kev and fights someone better then why would people think he is 'ducking him' You make no sense what so ever. :-(



    Why would anybody accuse him of ducking Mitchell :dead

    He is a step back for Burns and Mitchell is the one who wants more money.

    If you lads get someone better than Mitchell, I'll be rooting ricky on with a passion. But if this is going to be a pointless fight (like Cleverly's upcoming 'defence'), I'll be cheering for the underdog!

    Put up the board position, I can't play the moves in my head and don't have a board here.
