    People are sleeping on Burns. Crawford's chin is a HUGE QUESTION MARK.

    Burns could tap that.

    As long as Terrance Crawford can take a half step back when Burns starts to throw wide punches, he'll completely baffle Burns.

    The poll should be about whether he will get robbed or not.

    Co-sign. I just don't see how Burns can win outside of a robbery. I think we've seen his ceiling recently and it's just a hair above domestic euro level.

    Crawford is going to paste Ricky Burns. He may even KO him. Burns is a solid B fighter, no more.

    Questions.........

    Where is Rickys head at after the last two fights.

    Will there be any ring rust.

    Can Crawford fight hard for 12 rounds.

    How will Crawford react if Ricky starts to make it ugly.

    How will Crawford react in that type of environment.

    Just how hard does Ricky punch at the weight.

    Has Burns re-learned how to throw straight punches?
    Will Burns use feints?
    Will Burns be able to deal with an opponent taking a half step back?

    Honestly, Burns is as average a World Champion as Cleverly was. If Crawford is half as good as they say he is, he takes Burns to school on points.

    In fairness Burns fought and beat the belt holder, when many considered Burns nothing more than cannon fodder, he wasn't carefully steered into the belt ala Cleverly.
