fighting 10-8-2 boxrec #469 saidou sall (for reference the criticized 27-3-1 dariusz sek is #57, even higher then burton)
over the last few years its been all guys like this except when buglioni kod him. was pretty much all like that b4 too although he did fight fringe english level shinkwin and english level smw smyle
burtons won at english level before , couldnt he at least fight someone like ricky summers or the international equivalent

Don't think he has a promoter? Think that has been behind his poor opponents, gets chucked on the odd Matchroom bill in Manchester against a cheap low level opponent. He could do with the Buglioni rematch.

Has he been offered anything? Yarde should have fought someone like Burton by now.
So many domestic divisions are stagnant like the light heavyweight division.
Fight each other!

His younger brother Zac made his debut on the Fury bill, he was a really good amateur although has had a few years away from boxing, worth keeping an eye on

They both have very good potential

If Buatsi beats Summers convincingly then Burton would be a good step up after that.
He's been on plenty of Matchroom bills and works with Joe Gallagher so you'd expect him to be looked after fairly well. Probably just always seen as more of an undercard filler for the Manchester shows topped by Crolla and Quigg. They seemed to have dried up now though so Burton is an afterthought for Eddie.

Clearly hasn’t got backing - decent opponents require decent pay.
