Mendez would be a tough night for Burns. It's a fight you'd want sooner than later. Also put the fight on in Scotland, get the crowd going. Mendez would never of seen anything like that.

I'm sure it was hostile in South Africa but a few thousand Scots I'm sure would ramp that up. It would be very different from what Mendez is used too. This would be a tough fight and may bring out the best in Burns. We'll see, not sure it's likely to happen I'd guess Mendez either fights Fana at a later date or fights for the vacant IBF title. So a Burns-Mendez fight is a way a way yet.

The scots are always great supporters.
A unification between two British trained champions would certainly be a decent affair.
Would Warren float it though ? would Mendez be arsed about Burns either ?
