will Burns be big odds on?
yeah about 1.10 at most i expect .The other guy has fought no one anyone ever heard of .His last 5 opponents had all lost 7 or more fights . |

Another notch on the worst two-time world champion CV of all time. Was hoping the opposition would pick up under Eddie. Early days like but presuming the inner of Crolla-Rees after this? Surely Abril, DeMarco or Molina have to be brought over soon if Broner's not happening.

Absolutely disgrace facing the mandatory who the WBO ordered him to fight. Ridiculous.

You seriously playing the mandatory card? Behave yourself, he was all set to fight Vazquez a few months ago, didn't see the WBO standing in the way of that with Gonzalez. It all of a sudden becomes a must fight mandatory when it suits the promotion. He's rated around 80th in the world for gods sake.

like Burns 15/8 to stop this guy with cut insurance. should be a big gulf in class and Ricky seems to be sitting down on his punches more these days, plus should have plenty of frustration to take out after all the recent aggravation.

By:
From what I have seen of Gonzalez on youtube, he doesn't have a high work rate or fast hands but he can whack. Might be worth a nibble at 5/1.

Jose Gonzalez -good with crosses imho
|
|
By:
Not often I disagree with Duke but was he really set to fight Vazquez? Really?
The fight is wank I agree but if the WBO didn't have a problem with Vazquez its because of their relationship with Frank at the time. |
|
By:
I dont mind him fighting Gonzalez as long as he doesnt bulls hit that he's always wanted to fight broner

Seeing that genius ringside was unreal mate. Leo Santa Cruz is a monster and a good fight in Ponce V Mares. Friday's card featuring the US Olympians was good I was no more than 2 yards from the cornerman could hear everything for $100. Meet Leon Spinks and got some trunks signed by him.
But Cino De Mayo weekend was a pain in the arse full of US businessmen going through a mid-life crisis most of them falling over drunk by 5:30 in the evening. Gonna be a effort but gonna try and do Macau for Manny Rios |
|
By:
Macau? Jesus that will cost a few quid no?
I was tempted to go over in September for Floyd but looking like no more than a routine win so might save it for next year and hopefully go over to see him school Khan ![]() |
|
By:
Looking into it now mate will defo let you know. Gonna try and get as much in as possible this year. Froch Kessler at the 02 in a couple of weeks
|
|
By:
Bradley-Marquez same night in September mate so nice alternative or even chance to catch both if you head over. I'm sorting mine out now.
|
|
By:
I've DM you about the US Sportsbooks like you asked Duke
|
|
By:
Saw Marquez before Christmas Duke so not that fussed about seeing him again. Definitely want to see Floyd before he wraps it though
|

By:
i have a sneaky feeling gonzalez wins this.

Ricky has done well in his career cant understand what is wrong with his CV, Martinez - Katsidis - Mitchell are no bums.He was as pissed as anyone when the Vasquez fight fell through which would have been a tough one btw.
What ive seen of this guy Gonzalez Id expect Ricky to win inside the distance, Gonzalez has a punchers chance, however if he does`nt connect he could be blowing through his cheeks early doors when the Ricksters work rate kicks in. C`mon Ricky son do Scotland proud once again. |
|
By:
I backed Katsidis, after 30 seconds of the fight you could see that he was completely shot. Excellent match making from Warren, same thing with Mitchell.
The Martinez fight was a really fantastic night for him and his followers but to make a football comparison, it was like his Istanbul. Nobody will argue that was a great Liverpool side, no matter what they won. Can't have that CV, can't actually believe some on here were saying he might have a chance against Broner. Madness. |

By:
I know mate they've constantly ducked the fight
|
|
By:
bit harsh on burns here imo
|
|
By:
How? Described as a 'two-weight king' on Ringside earlier. Got to be fcking joking. The acclaim he receives is a laughable. He seems a lovely lad who had a brilliant night when toppling Martinez, what have you done for me lately?
This from the man who pulls Floyd's record apart ![]() |

two weight kind obviously over the top...im not his biggest fan just think hes better than you lot give him credit for
|

By:
Remember Katsidis was fav to win the fight with Ricky,if he was shot going into the fight then someone failed inform the odds compilers.
Anyway that aside, Ive gone with the fight not to go the distance tonight at evens. I think Ricky will prove too industrious for Gonzalez & break him up as he appears so much stronger at lightweight. Then there`s always the chance that his opponent will connect with a k-o punch, either way i`ll be surprised if this one goes the distance. |
|
By:
I like Burns it's his team. "Ricky isnt mentally ready to fight Broner yet" Jesus christ could you tell us when he is then?
Agree with Mac about fight not going the distance, Gonzalez swings for the houses and if you miss those shots all night it takes a lot out of the tank |

Im having a small play on Simpson to stop Choi at 8/1........ Choi's 41 now and didnt impress in prizefighter when i saw him last. Never been stopped but giving it a go here.
|
|
By:
That's why I complemented Warren for making the fight against Katsidis, he looked a nightmare on paper. It's not post fight hindsight, he was goosed from the first minute of the fight. Absolutely nothing on his punches, chasing shadows. Ricky Burns didn't beat the same Katsidis that took Mitchell out and floored Marquez. Simple as.

Hasn't Burns drifted quite a bit for 1 round here?
|
|
By:
How likely is it this guy wins a decision in Glasgow too?
|
|
By:
good question, n88. I reckon Gonzo will have to win by at least 4 rounds. Burns being outclassed so far. Looks amateur in comparison.
