    I don't think so. Burns has already beaten Martinez, Katsidis and a very very good Moses. Like I said I really hope it does happen as Mitchell is my favourite fighter and I think he'd beat Burns. But Mitchell definitely needs the fight more than Ricky does

    well i dont agree with what your saying about a possible fight between these two because id love to see it but at least your not like everyone on here dismissing the calibre of opponents Burns faced.

    :good

    ****in bull****! clev beating bellew sticks him world level?sorry,but as much as i love 'bomber' beating him in a domestic showdown for a title that clev was handed dont mean he has the right to go after the big names

    and groves...anderson had a disrupted camp leading up too the fight,had 2 weeks to lose the weight and it killed him,lost that fight in gym did ando.groves should have lost that night....good result beating degale,cant take it away from groves...but again,winning a domestic showdown between 2 prospectshardly propels you to world level...and paul smith???i aint even gonna go there,guys just a fat smw whos brit level at best

    katisdis,even though a jaded katsidis,shits all over bellew,anderson,degale and smith..**** id even say martinez is giving them a run for there money in terms of world status:deal....so id say ricky has every right to chase a rios, and for the record,been saying it for months,rickys gonna stop mitchell,guys overrated and should be a sfw......ricky will just be too big,too strong and too precise..guy brings the better tools too the fight

    wee burns must love it everytime he shuts all the doubters up,cause a do

    Burns is one of the top 2-3 Lightweights in the world. Mitchell is in the top 15 in everybodys book and top 10 with some....not myself.

    Katsidis was a good fight. Moses was a good fight. Mitchell will also be a good fight. Plus its a a quality domestic fight between the number 1 and number 2 in the country.

    Its unlikley that Rickys next opponent will be ranked higher than Kevin.

    Also Kevin is Rickys mandatory.

    So my source was wrong by a couple of weeks. As far as I'm aware, Mitchell as refused the fight once over money, and Ricky has refused the fight once over money (when Mitchell was asking for 50/50). Is that right Bill?

    As I've said in the thread, Mitchell needs the fight more. Ricky has a bright future, if he stays away from Kevin that is ;) (and Rios. Don't go near Rios). I think stylistically, Ricky beats every other Lightweight

    Kevin is probably being offerd more money to fight Gavin Rees on the Froch undercard which won't make sense to him.

    I can assure you Ricky has never refused the fight with Kevin,i dont really care what each fighter gets but clearly the champion deserves more than the challenger

    Not really. Mayweather will be getting more money than Cotto. But Rucky does deserve more money than Mitchell I agree
