    Burns will KO him, the guy had been down once or twice before the Troya match, and I'm pretty sure Troya would have put him down hard as well, but he landed first with a freakish KO shot of his own. Indongo isn't a KO artist, he usually UD's guys so that was a lucky punch, it was similar to the Bracero-O'Connor KO from last year. However Burns unlike Troyanovsky does not have a suspect chin.

    Good fight this. Crawford needs to take on the winner.

    It depends, because I have no interest in seeing Crawford-Burns again.

    I'd prefer seeing him against Broner, Ruslan, Granados, Okada, Obara, Lipinets or even Imam and Troya compared to a rematch with Burns.

    Its a very weak division. I think Lipinets is probably the 2nd best at 140..

    Been told that Ricky Sismundo's team are trying to get both men in the ring, I'd love to see Sismundo getting a major fight, guy should have been 3-0 this year on the road against notable foes

    If Burns has 2 of the belts and a defeat to Crawford, I think it's a fight that has to happen tbh.

    I'm fine with this fight as this is winnable for Indogo. I'm not high on Burns after winning via blatant robbery in his last fight. Ripe for the picking.

    Indongo is a dark horse for me, he landed the perfect shot at the perfect moment in a shocking upset. But other than that I don't know anything else about the guy. Burns is very durable and has some world class experience, and I think that decides the outcome here. Burns wins a unanimous decision imo.

    based on him 'beating' a proven experienced durable world level fighter in Burns over 12 rounds...
