Anyone agree that this is a 50/50 fight if so the bookies have burns at 1/5 on.

Cook has an excellent chance of pulling this off despite his inactivity and Burns' good form IMO.

I'll be having a few quid on Cook.

I think it is closer than many think, however this depends on whether Cook is close to the form he was in during his peak years. I remember being absolutely gutted when his fight with Scott Harrison fell through because I was convinced he was gonna beat Harrison.

Come on Billy all scots like a punt surely even you got to admit the bookies prices are a bit out.

Think Ricky should be favourite but should be closer in the betting.

I probably think Ricky will win but as a gambler then Cook a good price.

Your doing a good job and success breeds success and long may it continue for you as you seem like a 24/7 lover of the game

Remember Cook beat Arthur to win the title and Burns isnt the strongest of world champions is he. I do think Burns is a good fighter, but Cook was some fighter before he got by Martinez and was one of the form British fighters.

Is his Dad training him for this fight? Why was he out of the ring for so long?

Scott Harrison would have obliterated cook. Cook boxed well against an empty shell of Alex Arthur and won a close decision. There's no way cook can cope with burns speed, workrate and variety. Burns by late stoppage.

I got to go for Burns based on activity. He has been the more active fighter and should win this by decision.

Poor match. Cook should have actually had to fight his way into the rankings. Burns inside 8
