    Rocky Martinez will defend his SFW title against Ricky Burns. The fight will take place in Scotland according to the scene. I dont like the idea of Martinez going all the way to Scotland to defend his title.

    I agree I'm Rican but we tend to just stay in the island and NY. I'm glad Rocky is a road warrior.

    He went there to win a championship not the other way around. Him going over to Scotland to defend his title is messed up but if he has no problem with it then thats him. I just hope he wins

    Fight will be at the Kelvin Hall in Glasgow.

    Ricky Burns agreed to fight Martinez in Puerto Rico but Martinez's management couldnt come up with the cash.

    he better go prepared to fight and beat him convincignly..it's hard to win in the other guys house.. not saying they cheat but is natural that the crowd always has an effect on the judges with their noise and stuff like that when sometime hometown boxer is hitting air but the crowd goes crazy

    Britain is about the place where u dont normally see hometown decisions. Your boy should get a fair fight. I think he may have a little too much for Burns.

    rocky said no.. he said they're offering him the same amount to fight in scotland that they were offering him to fight in PR.. he said the only way he fights over there is if he gets more money if not he wont go
