    I would have said incompetent judging. Despite many accusations of corruption in the Beltran fight no one has shown any evidence of corruption.

    Do you have any evidence sorearse?

    He is a two weight world champion. So he is world class

    That was definitely corrupt judging, no way that judges are always so conveniently, magically incompetent in favor of the home fighter. It's obvious.

    I hope Burns fights Vasquez and proves topeoplehowgood he really is, posters on here thought Mitchell would walk through Burns and looked what happened, then all the ****ney excuses came as per usual, if Burns gets back to that level he'd beat Vasquez

    He's a decent fighter but his last 2 fights have been step ups from what he fought before, and he kinda got exposed against Gonzalez and then beat up by Beltran.

    Expect Crawford to beat him if/when the fight happens.

    I don't really like Broner but he would have f-ckin destroyed Burns. No wonder Burns didn't fancy the job, one of the most blatant ducks in years.

    He is top 5-10 of his division. I had him top 2 or 3 a few fight back but Could have easily lost his last 2 fights.
