    Comments Thread For: Ricky Burns: The Pain in My Jaw Was Unbelievable

    Ricky Burns retained his WBO lightweight title after a controversial draw against Raymundo Beltran at the SECC in Glasgow. The 30-year-old Coatbridge fighter, making his fourth defence of his belt, was floored in the eighth round of a contest he never really looked like he was winning.

    But one judge gave Burns the verdict by 115-112, another gave it to Beltran by 115 -113 and there was an audible gasp inside the arena when it was announced the third judge had scored it 114 each, with even the champion, who apparently dislocated his jaw in the second round, looking apologetic.

      the guy was holding, grabbing, and pulling on beltran for most of the fight. each round he was looking to grab and hang on to beltran...........

      i got confused, i didn't know if i was watching a boxing match or a pimp trying to teach his h*e a lesson for not paying him.............

        Flash knockdown? He was caught right on the chin with his hands down.

          Burns crying out excuses? There's no need.

            I told folks that Ray was coming to win this fight. Mad I didn't get a chance to catch this one.

                I don't think he was crying excuses, just telling the truth. His jaw is broken:

                    I don't know if you saw the picture, but it's a clean break. Burns isn't looking for sympathy, he's waiting for jaw surgery. He even gave an interview post-fight.

                    It's more like Victor Ortiz than Tim Bradley, except Burns fought on (not that I blame Ortiz).
