Not saying ricky looks fat but he looks a bit too bulky to me.

Think he should of stayed at lightweight.

Hahaha! Okay I will.

Burs is not looking like world champion level to me, especially at a higher weight, not by a long way.

Burns, compared to his best nights, looks poor. The 140lbs division is too strong, he is in for some painful nights ahead I think

Burns and the opponent have put each other down in every round. I've never seen anything like it

Burns still looks uncomfortable to me when he gets hit (in comparison to before he had the jaw break i mean) and this is against a guy that doesnt have power.

Think Burns would beat Nurse or Ryan based on this?

Why is he carrying on? He's not even using his skills, he must know he's lost it, why defame his rep?

On this evidence I'd say Burns is pretty much finished.

Nurse would be on his back more times than a prossie.

For a former world champ Burns does look poor though, he looks gone and yes, fat.

Money or lack of. Wonder how his lawsuit with Fwank is going ? It was meant to be in court in the summer. Fwank was certain he would take Ricky to the cleaners

I dont think he's shot because of age though or anything like that. I think the jaw break has ruined him and even more importantly i think he's fearful of being hit now because of it. It's taken something away from him.

Also though, to a large extent, I think he overachieved.

He's late to the party. It'll be £20 now for the inconvenience.
