    The likes of Baloyi, Linares, Salgado, Klassen, Guerrero, Fana and maybe a couple more would/could have been ranked aboved Martinez before/after the Cook victory if I remember rightly.

    Martinez was rated #2 by Ring magazine when Burns upset him.

    The fight has been discussed and loved by fans for a while. Suddenly the team is shook. Shock, the weight becomes an issue. First decent defence and the excuses start.

    Has this been confirmed yet, or are people just going overboard as usual?

    Even if he loses to Broner - a Mitchell fight at LW not long after would be sellable and interesting

    I would really like to hear from Billy. Sounds like Burns isn't fancying the trip to USA though if I'm honest. Ricky looks fine at 130 to me but I don't work behind the scenes. I just wish ****** wasn't such a dick head and protects all his fighters.. Broner is utter shite too and Ricky will beat him up, obviously he would rather rematch Laryea at 135 or some **** like that.
