Thread: Walsh pulls out of burns fight

Looks like Walsh has pulled out due to an injury caused in a car crash! He seems to be ok but will not be fit to box in December.wonder who will replace him?hopfully not some unknown bum.

John Murray is in training and more deserving of a crack.

Good call but Murray should be fighting Rees?

Yeah thought Murray Rees wos a definite?

Yes you are right mate, do you think he would pull out of the Rees fight and step in against Burns if possible? He might never get another world title shot if he loses against Rees anyway. If he lost against Burns he could be manouvered back in to a shot for the Euro?

If he has signed it will be difficult o pull out and I think Murray will beat Rees and can fight Burns after that if he wants.

I see Murray v Rees as 50-50, I expect it to be a tough fight and can't pick a winner confidently. It depends on which version of each fighter turns up. With a gun to my head I'd probably lean towards Rees in all honesty. Think it could be a cracker.

As for who Burns could face.....could be anyone, it won't be an overly tough fight as they want to give him every chance of a win to set up a match with the winner of the Broner fight. Not only that Groves is in a big fight, there's other good fighters on the bill the tickets will sell well whatever.

Dont worry guys im sure Warren can find a replacement with less than 13 fights , to challange for the WBO title.

I'd like to say that I hope Walsh is OK after his car crash, but atleast were now saved from that total farce. Warren will probably have another cheeky challenger in mind though.

OR, the optimist in me thinks maybe theyjust wait on the winner tonight from DeMarco / Broner an MAKE THE FIGHT. Come on Frank, surprise EVERYONE, just once......
