No mention of Ricky Burns shocking ha ha

The world doesn't spin around you and yours Billy

Does seem a bit unusual that he'd mention Quigg and Brook who aren't fighting for a while and Khan who doesn't have a fight confirmed yet he'd miss out Burns who fights in 3 weeks.

I thought he did mention it at the end. Because I remember Kugan saying how Pacquaio had piped up saying Beltran will win! *Beltran being Manny's chief sparring partner for a long time*

Interesting that he mentioned Kevin Mitchell's out in America right now.

I think there has been a serious lack of promotion for the Burns fight. Hearn did bring him up in this interview

I think he was only out there to support Barker. I dont think he was out there for any other reason to be fair.

I know that just surprised he got a visa, he's had issues in the past.

Getting a visa to travel to the USA for a visit isn't that difficult, you just need to get the wheels in motion early, as it can take a while. I think you need to apply for a copy of your conviction history, then book an appointment at the US embassy for an interview. I don't think you can generally do this short notice.

Getting a working visa may be more difficult.

Didn't Martin Murray have an interview recently about a visa? How did it go?

Its a problem gettin in USA with convictions if u tell them

I know plenty of people who been in jail n been for holiday an not mentioned it

I'll ring the US embassy and find out for you.

If people are willing to take the risk and gamble their family holiday or whatever then that's up to them. There's a risk you'll be the one they do a random check on and then be refused entry. You don't have to have been jailed either, the criteria used to say something like "arrested and/or convicted" (that was a few years back, it may have changed).
