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

Boxing is dirty on every level. Robberies happen in every nation.

More so in the UK these days. You have to contend with not only judges but refs and time keepers also

There is no doubt that Burns is an amazingly conditioned warrior, but he had no answer to Beltran. He just walked through him and didn't look more than formulaic himself. Burns was wide open for hooks all night.
Where does he go from here though? I assume he left Warren for Matchroom for the bigger fights, but he just isn't technically good enough when it comes to world level. Is Hearn going to milk that belt? Is Scott Harrison in jail again? That would have been a big money spinner in Scotland...

Exactly.

Ref carried Cleverly to this corner.
Time Keeper stopped the round 5-6 seconds too soon.

the enzo-mcphilbin fight the round was stopped like 40 seconds early because enzo was flopping all over the ring. one of the funniest displays of corruption ever seen.

It wasn't that bad.

He definitely lost though and the ref really should have taken a point away from Ricky at least for holding. Even Ricky acknowledged he was preoccupied with grabbing in close because he didn't want to take any punishment inside.
