Ricky Burns v Liam Walsh Dec 15th

A kid with less than 15 pro fights fighting for a world title and they are happy to sanction that? More excellent work atsch

 

I like Burns and Walsh but this is a load of shite. Walsh is nowhere near ready.

 

**** fight! Frank should know by now we're not idiots!

I'm cancelling boxnation now.

 

He's 12 in the rankings so i doubt they had much choice

 

Aye, this is shite. :-(

 

I think I would e preferred Scott harrison.

 

agree

 

Poor Ricky... A lose lose fight if ever I saw one. Walsh will def give a good account of himself. This is a bit like Calzaghe- starie

 

Theres absolutely nothing wrong with Burns fighting Walsh, it just shouldn't be for the belt

 

Now, I just want to point something out folks, this is what I received yesterday:

This was my post:

This is the reply from Billy Nelson:

Not having a go at Billy Nelson or Ricky Burns, because they aren't making the fights, but a Kevin Mitchell 2, John Murray, or even Michael Katsidis 2, is a better fight than Liam Walsh, who I might add, is ranked 59.

Who is laughing now?

I swear, if his fanboys come in here with the same old ****. "He'll do Broner" "Ricky Burns is the best" "Ricky Burns is world class because he has fought, Katsidis, Moses and Mitchell" "How is Broner world class when he hasn't even had a fight at lightweight" :tired

Yes, who is it against, and what for? Forget it being the first fight.

It's De Marco for the WBC, Burns and his camp were talking about unifying belts and stepping up, Liam Walsh? Really?

Nothing against Walshy or Ricky, W-arren is making the fights, but Ricky is looking upwards, is this an upwards fight?

COME ON fanboys "Ricky Burns isn't domestic level" He may well not be I agree, but you cannot deny he is being kept at the level by poor fight match ups and bad promotion. :good

 

How can Broner vs DeMarco be for the Ring title at Lightweight?

 

This fight will be over inside 6 rounds IMO, Walsh is getting hit more and more. I expect Ricky's strength and range to trouble the lad and i can see the trainer pulling Walsh out around the 6th.

Poor fight, Ricky's is just skirting the edges. 2013 it has to be Unification time.

 

My thoughts exactly.

 

Simply not acceptable for a title fight but the WBO will sanction it as he is the WBO Euro champion. WBO made their bed when they conjured this title.

Wrong weight, wrong time, wrong, wrong, wrong.

 

I thought it was, at least I was told it was. I quoted that post, the post was done before I was corrected later on in another thread, therefore it says ring because I didn't change it. :good
