I like the look of this fight. You have the classy Burns who may not be a big puncher but has great boxing skills and heart and then you have this puncher who will look for the K.O and the one big punch. Don't know much about but being Cuban and the chance to be world champion will make it an interesting fight.

I have Burns winning via UD.

Seems like we have 2 similar world title fights this weekend with Jamie McDonnell fighting for the IBF belt with another Mexian puncher. Anyone know who is showing that fight?

Good weekend of boxing

I think Sky has them both? They had McDonnell on Ringside last week and he's boxed on sky before I think, so that's what I'm basing my assumption on

I think Gonzalez is Puerta Rican is he no? Although they're known for their hard as fook boxer-punchers/brawlers so it's shaping up to be a good fight as you say

Really looking forward to this fight. I was gutted when the Vazquez fight got chopped! After a couple of rounds Ricky will work him out and start breaking him down. Ricky is a really powerful Lightweight and Gonzalez won't have faced his like before. Ricky in 5.

Pay per view - primetime

I hope Burns gets knocked out. Blatantly ducked Broner.

Aye, ok then

Let me guess you think Burns beats Broner.

Burns is a paper champion avoids fighting the best.

Ok genius, who exactly has he avoided?

Avoided Adrien Broner at 130 and now at 135. He has never fought anyone world class.

Do you really think Burns has a chance with Broner?

I'm gonna humour you here.

He outgrew super-featherweight hence missing the fight with Broner, he'll probably end up at 140 pounds.

He's not avoided Broner at 135, they just haven't met yet.

He was also due to fight Vazquez (a 50/50 match-up) but Warren ballsed that up. Burns has never ducked a fight in his life.

He'd probably lose on points to Broner but it'd be a close fight

What do you mean they haven't just met yet Golden Boy's team made a offer and Ricky Burns own team rejected it. Burns and his team are blatantly ducking the fight.

He'd probably lose on points to Broner but it'd be a close fight



Close fight? Broner would win by knockout in a one sided beatdown off Burns.

Aye and Arsenal will win a trophy in the next decade

The Burns fan has no comeback so changes the subject. Celtic only won one trophy in their history.

Remind me again when was it Arsenal lifted the European Cup?

As for Burns he's a class above this kid tonight, and should he win he'll get his mega fight against either Broner or Vazquez, fights he has a chance of winning.

I also wouldn't be surprised to see him winning a world title at a third weight

As for Burns he's a class above this kid tonight, and should he win he'll get his mega fight against either Broner or Vazquez, fights he has a chance of winning.



The delusion is strong in this one. Asky any boxing expert and they will all tell you Burns has no chance against Broner. Or go on the boxing forums and everyone will laugh at you. Broner is pound for pound one of the best fighters in the world and will replace Mayweather soon as number one. Burns is a paper champion who has never fought anyone world class. Of course he should beat the guy he is facing tonight as he not really good. Burns doesn't beat any of the top light welterweights such as Garcia, Matthyse, Peterson, Khan etc. So I doubt he will win at a 3rd weight. Burns has never fought the best at 130 or 135. He is just a protected paper champion.

Arsenal have won more european trophies than Celtic. Celtic have only won trophy in their history as the spl league and cup titles dont count as it is micky mouse.

You really are a muppet

Arsenal have won more european trophies than Celtic. Celtic have only won trophy in their history as the spl league and cup titles dont count as it is micky mouse.

Koscielny - Very arrogant comment - plus how many times have your team won the only European trophy that REALLY counts?

RGK doesnt seem to realise that Arsenal European success was in competitions that or now defunct.

Anyway to the OP good luck to Ricky Burns tonight im sure he will finish the night just like his team a champion.

Jokebox

Aww Juke you got your backside owned in a boxing debate so dont complain now because your the one that brought football into it.

Of course Ricky Burns will win tonight as he refuses to fight anyone world class. He is a paper champion that needs to man up and fight Adrien Broner.

I got owned?

How old are you.. 14?

Give it a rest

How old am I? 23. How old are you? probably 12. Give it a rest I was debating boxing with you but you couldn't handle it and brought football into it.

I just can't handle it

Away and attempt a WUM elsewhere

Burns would give Broner a great fight, if you don't agree then that's fine, you're entitled to your opinion. But if you believe debating is slagging off a genuine world class boxer by claiming an untruth then you my friend are an idiot

To be fair i rate Broner highly, but he hasn't beat anyone of any note atm and is still a paper champ. Got caught loads in his last fight and someone with more power probably would've put him away.
