Which Happens First: Burns - Broner or Cleverly - Hopkins?

Pac/Mayweather.

 

I've got a feeling Burns-Broner will happen soon enough. The quicker, the better for Ricky IMO because Broner still looks raw and there for the taking. If Broner fights Abril and convincingly wins, it's another indication of him improving and it just makes Ricky's task even harder.

I'm not sure Cleverly-Hopkins will go ahead. Hopkins is meant to be fighting Cloud and Cleverly has hus mandatory with Krasniqi. If they both came through that, maybe but I doubt it. We've heard a lot about Cleverly stepping up but nothing's materialised. It might be easier to make if Hopkins lost to Cloud but to be honest, I don't see it happening.

 

Aye, if Hopkins loses to Cloud it's more viable.

It's a greater indication yet of Bernard needing to give it up, and he'll have hardly any options to look at elsewhere.

It's a case of Allegedly offering up just enough money to tempt him.

Burns vs Broner.... keep changing my mind about this as to whether or not it'll happen any time soon. If it was up to Burns he'd do it, but the noises from Morrison don't seem too positive, wanting a ''life changing sum in excess of £500k'' - as if he's almost looking for a retirement fund for Burns.

At the end of the day, ultimately the final decision will rest with Burns, but Allegedly and Morrison are people with strong opinions, both of whom have been good to Burns in the past, guiding him from two bad defeats at domestic level to where he is today.

Not sure he's ready to ignore them at this stage, even though it'd be the right decision to do just that.

If Broner really is as good as people say he is, surely you'd be better getting him now, rather than in a couple of years time, more chance to improve that dreadful footwork.

Can't read too much into the DeMarco win, as impressive as it was. He was up against a man who lacked the discipline to keep the fight outside as much as possible, and who had previously been hammered by Valero and Linares - alright he beat Linares, but he barely won a round before Linares found a way to get himself stopped.

 

Clev v Hopkins won't sell here in Cardiff that I do know , what boxing fan in their right mind would want to pay good money to watch boring as bat **** Hopkins claw his way through a 12 rounds points loss ? **** that I love my boxing right enough but I wouldn't walk the couple of miles to town to watch that **** .

 

Ricky Burns is improving as well mate!

 

I would pay to watch Hopkins anywhere in the UK

 

"I would pay " now I know your telling porkies Jock .
