I know Ricky is new to 135.. but why not stick him in there with another fringe world level fighter again. It'd be good to see Ricky fight a different style opponent for his next bout as he's proven he can deal with a top quality ring cutter and pressure fighter in Kats
DeMarco is also reliant on having his man in front of him, but he's big and tough and would be there for the duration. Ricky needs to stop going straight back to the ropes and covering up, it's going to be his downfall soon, against Rios it'd be the worst idea ever, he needs to get off 'em, slip out and re-take centre ring more often IMO, against Martinez and Katsidis he took damage doing just that.
Burns has all the attributes to beat DiMarco. Linares is a flash in the pan as far as i'm concerned, he looks the part and throws some nice shots but ultimately he's one paced, predictable and a bit chinny. His only decent wins have come against the old, worn and faded Rocky Juarez and Oscar Larios. Burns Vs DiMarco would be an interesting fight but I can't see DiMarco coming to the UK nor Burns going across the pond just yet.
