Ricky Burns WBO title bout off. see page 2
Re: Ricky Burns WBO title shot on 6th March
I aint saying he is the next coming of Marco Antonio Barrera or something like that, but he has beaten many fighters better than who Burns has beaten.

Looks like its off - no longer up on Boxrec and Ricky is down to fight Sykes on the boxrec schedule on March 5th for the British title.
Shame - anyone know what happened

Not seen Sykes diggler - whats he like - clearly you rate him, strengths in all areas, or one particular area?diggler wrote:think sykes will win, dont think burns will be up for this
Quick view would be appreciated, looked at his record and assumed Burns would be a good favourite, hate it when I have'nt seen someone

In the Scottish Sun today it says the MArtinez fight has still never been signed as there Split was still not agreed.
The way His manager is Alex Morrison talks is that its the British they will go for as this will give him opertunity for Word Title fight nearer home
It also says thought that Mr Warren says hes confident the world title fight will happen.
It mentions the Brish fight was won by matchroom so Wazza wont want them going there.

Gutted for Burns that this fight is off, it will be hard for him to motivate himself for the Sykes fight but its a good test for Sykes.

hahha Thanks mate. I just can't imagine the payday in PUERTO rico would've been that great though........BUT yes, if he'd won he would be due a good payday. But I just couldn't see it.....
