    120-108 Burns for me

    I can acknowledge that boxing is the most interpretable sport out there and that everyone will both see and value things differently. Having said that, rounds 5, 6, and I think it was 10 are the only ones that could go to Moses. 117-111 for Burns at worst.

    Much like the fight, from what I saw of it (which was only the last four rounds or so). Kind of one paced, but at least that pace was quick.

    Much as I'm a fan of Ricky,I wouldn't look forward to this.
    Think it would be closer than many people think though.Sort of odds Ricky thrives on.

    Is it me or do these cards suggest that the judges gave lots of even rounds? :huh (one from Edwards, and two from Martinez)

    Oh boy. Burns is a motormouth AND has the Scottish brogue.

    So much for paying attention to what he's saying here...:!:

    Burns is a very smart boxer and sound technician. I'd love to see him in against Adrien Broner, would be a massive test for both
