Painful to watch.

In saying that it might just be the southpaw stance, height and class of Indongo.

Personally I think the southpaw stance and length are huge problems for him stylistically and that's good loads to do with it. It was noticeable that Crawford first really took over their fight when he switched southpaw, and he was better at range than burns too. His whole style has always been boxing from range and moving, when the other bloke is better than that Burns isn't going to start bob and weaving and hooking from the inside.

Indongo destroying Burns. This is a blowout. Burns hasn't won a round.

Those dimensions are a bitch. Lets not forget that Burns was 'shot' years ago. The beating Crawford would put on Indongo would be criminal.

Burns won't quit. Fair play to him.

8 rounds to Indongo and 1 round a draw.

Ohara Davies always talk that much shit....?

Gonzalez had the same success in the southpaw stance aswell.

Better from Burns but still indongos rounds


90-81 to Indongo

Great heart from Burns to come back into round 9 and land some shots - he may even have taken it as Indongo slows down. But I don't think Burns have enough in the tank to turn this around, especially given the difference in reach and power.

Those dimensions are an especial bitch when they come with some athletic talent, which Indongo has.

Good call

I never tire of saying this, jab-first guys like BUrns never do well against southpaws

Indongo 100-90

9 rounds to Indongo and 1 round a draw

Burns only chance is if Julius Indongo just crumbles infront of him

This would the mother of all robberies if the judges gave it to Burns lol.

That should have been a knockdown there. A punch landed and he touched down.

Great resilience from Ricky. He's going out like a warrior.

10 rounds to Indongo and 1 round a draw.

Am I the only person that thinks if you get punched in the head and fall over then it's a knockdown against you?

11 rounds to Indongo and 1 round a draw.

I'm glad Ricky made it through to the end, he deserves that.

I like Burns and he deserves credit for taking this fight but man that was a schooling.

Exactly. At least 2 knockdowns there

MC John McDonald was the first person to leap into the ring there,,He certainly loves the spotlight
