I like the hair combing 'schtick'. His father doing it is a bit odd but it does make me laugh

Possibly but a couple of things may hinder that. firstly Allegedly does not have the financial power and backing to get Broner over into Scotland, to fight. Secondly, it's a risky move for one of his 'Champions' and thirdly, more importantly, it is a fight that Burns would lose pretty decisvely, in my opinion.

A bit of a stretch to say Broner needs Ricky, Billy! He probably barely knows who he is. Also you cant really expect people to take this seriously when its common knowledge Burns dropped his title and rejected a career high payday rather than face Broner.

if Burns was too big for the weight, and Broner looks like he can definitely move up, then the fight will happen, if Burns can get a belt again anyway beforehand.

Don't get me wrong, I would love Ricky to fight and beat him. Not sure this fight happens as it would take some money and Allegedly simply won't front it for such a dangerous fight, in my opinion. Ricky is not scared, that's for sure but he would be up against it.

The thought of Broner vs. Rios excites me alright. That has all the makings of a cracker.

Ricky Burns vs Adrian Broner, hmmmm. I've written off Burns too many times, but off what I've seen of Broner I think he is genuine world class, whereas Ricky is still for me fringe world class until he proves me otherwise! Burns has only really beaten 2 fringe world class guys, he's beaten them well with nice methodical workrate and tidy boxing, Broner looks the real deal, he has beaten his guys with real shows of star quality and class.

So far so good, trying to be mayweather so hard is abit embarrassing, hope he steps up to fight Mitchell, and he eats mitchells right hand.

I think some folk are over-rating him TBH, Ponce made him look very very average....and Ponce was fighting above his natural weight and yet is still the best opponent he has faced. It's just a shame that the best guys at 130 are for my money in Japan.

Perez also looked like a child in there which is a shame.

Broner definatley brings excitement and some character to the game, the dancing had me in stitches. He may not be the next RJJ but we could do with even half a Nas right now.

I wasnt overly impressed with him when he fought Ponce De Leon, i thought he seemed a bit style over substance and tried overly hard to be like Mayweather when it didnt necessarily suit his style. Though his last two performances have converted me, hes looked amazing with quick reflexes, power, brilliant shot selection and excellent combinations. I can see him being a force for sometime!
