    Is this fight a possibility in the future, as a massive fan of Burns I'd love to see it & I reckon if Burns brought his A-game he could win it

    You get some idiots on here. Burns is tall for a lightweight never mind super featherweight. He moved up in weight and faced what appeared to be a tougher fight than Broner at the time.

    burns never ran from broner, get a grip! he wants to fight greats like JMM but is scared of a guy like broner?!?! everybody can see ricky is a big lightweight never mind super feather, on that evidence i believe ricky was realy struggling to make superfeather.
    as for a ricky vs broner fight, i would pick broner in a very tough fight but in no way did ricky duck him, he just doesnt come across that way at all.

    I've always thought stylistically Burns matches up very well with Broner, I'd fancy him to win it. But with him having given up his SFW belt when he was meant to face Broner, I can't see it happening any time in the near future.

    Id still fancy Ricky to outbox him if I'm honest.

    Broner was better last night, but is nt the finished article by any means

    Broner did look good last night, but Perez was simply too small to give him any difficulties with Ricky it would be different IMO

    I'm surprised that that fat idiot named Billy hasn't come on here giving it loads yet..

    Broner would outclass him, and outclass him badly.

    The problem with the Brit forum is fighter loyalty sometimes clouds judgement.

    Broner beats Ricky Burns and by quite a margin. Burns is tough I dont think he would be stopped but Broner is too quick,poweful, accurate and he has an excellent arsenal of shots. Broner clear UD for me.

    Burns is so overrated on here I half expect everyone's in on some elaborate trolling mission.

    I was surprised to hear that the ***** guy at the Ring mag picked Perez over Broner last night and would have picked Burns over Broner if they would have fought a while back. Although Burns is a legit World title holder Broner is something approaching elite standard.

    95% of the time boxers don't duck boxers, promoters do.

    Not really a fan of Broner but he beats Burns.
