Honest as I post this, I hope Ricky suffers as terrible KO from this cherry picking bout. Terrible fight against a guy that hasnt fought since he got hammered by Martinez and is reported to have a cocaine addiction. ****ing terrible and we have Nelson saying Ricky aint a dodger and is the best in the sport at the weight blah blah blah, Ricky will keep that belt and hold it at ransom against complete has-beens and never-was's. ****...
Not struggling, just plain avoidance of anyone with a pulse and a complete line up of no-hopers. Just like all WBO 'Champion's from the Warren stable. Terrible matchmaking and legacy/merit making fight. I wouldn't expect anything else from Frank warren!!!
If Burns gets past Cook which he should then FW really should pull out all the stops for the Fana unification fight.
Its poor for the fans but Frank is just doing whats best for Ricky, after fighting for peanuts hes making some money fighting tomato cans before he inevitably loses the title and goes back to fighting for peanuts.
