    These picks are all well and good, but who WILL Ricky fight next?

    I honestly cant see Frank putting him anywhere near Rios or Gamboa

    Sarfo Tyson. Actually I doubt he'd fight an African twice in a row.

    Maybe Henry Lundy?

    ^^^ Agreed, Lundy isn't a bad fight, but it doesn't excite me in the slightest.

    Barrera would be a **** fight imo, but I wouldn't begrudge barrera another payday and a chance for another title.

    Rios is a good shout, I think Ricky can beat him.

    I would be happy for the Millenium stadium - A Welsh triple header

    • Cleverley v Enzo
    • Burns v Rees
    • Selby v Smith II

    I would love to see Burns Vs Rees next.
     
  13. I'd like to see Burns fight Marquez.

    Burns would obviously lose but I think it'd be a great fight for him to take.

    ****in hell seriously !!!

    He hardly went life and death in a Ward Gatti style fight did he ???

    Mitchell did just stay busy , why the fight cannot be made in the Summer , June / July is beyond me

    Id be shocked and dissapointed if the Burns Mitchell fight isnt made next TBH

    Looking outside of Mitchell for Ricky , who is there who will bend to the Frank UK based shows for a reasonable purse that @ world level is actually that relevant ??

    You can bang off names but there not prepared to come here to fight him while they can fight at or near home for more or equal money

    Im going with Flea , and its a shocker , but i really think it could be MAB :barf
