    I like Walsh but how can they justify another Title defence like this it's a joke not fair on Burns either. When was last time Walsh he even fought?

    The yanks are going to love this. Its not Burns fault but Fwank is killing off any momentum gained from Burns spanking out a 'prepared' Mitchell.

    Wow, how anyone can defend Ricky Burns after this one is completely biased.

    Why would he even accept the Walsh fight, he's happy fighting at this level clearly.
     
  9. Walsh is WBO Euro champ so he's a 'legitimate' contender.

    Note I put 'legitimate' in commas there.

    I just did it again.

    I disagree, he could turn down the fight and demand a better opponent.

    Not even the same weight, how can he be a serious fight for a title. This is a joke if its true!

    Great point. Momentum is so important in boxing. This fight will cause Burns to lose it from a great performance against Mitchell.

    **** fight. It was suppose to be a world ranked opponent. Im sure Walsh wont be ranked that high.

    Burns has to do a serious job here and take him out wothout breaking a sweat to have any chance of eeping the momentum. This is a **** piece of matchmaking. Not just for the fans. But for Burns and his career.

    Doesn't seem like the type of lad to be making demands like that does he?

    He doesn't seem the type to kick up a fuss and could be thinking if he turns it down he doesn't fight until a bigger fight? Would want the activity/payday?
