WBO Lightweight Champ Ricky Burns To Meet Glasgow Public

Ricky Burns will perform a public work out at the St. Enoch Centre in Glasgow at midday on Thursday May 2, ahead of his WBO lightweight title defence against Jose Gonzalez at the Emirates Arena in Glasgow on May 11, live on Sky Sports in ‘Fighting Pride of Scotland’.

Burns clashes with the Puerto Rican challenger in his third defence of the belt, returning to the ring for the first time since his superb fourth round stoppage win over Kevin Mitchell in September at the SECC in Glasgow.

The Coatbridge star will perform a work out with trainer Billy Nelson before meeting fans for pictures and autographs. The work out is located outside Boots on the ground floor.
