Ricky burns v nicky cook thoughts?
Think this one should b pretty straight forward for burns.any you guys give cook a chance?
Re: Ricky burns v nicky cook thoughts?
Nope. Ive got Burns by Ko in 3 rounds.
Cook has come back for a final payday after living abroad and wants to retire after this fight. Reminds me of Brodie taking another Scottish guy in Scot Harrison and just folding at the first opportunity.
They have a couple of common opponents in Arthur and Martinez but boxing is all about timing. Its Burns' time. He is the man on form and Ill be shocked if Cook makes it a close fight.

The bookies have suspended betting on this. Suspicious amounts of wonga going on Burns KO 3.
I have already backed Cook (:rolleyes:). Gutted. Gutted. Gutted.

Hence my 3rd round prediction ;D
Re: Ricky burns v nicky cook thoughts?
I think it will be a close fight for 4 rounds then burns takes over,either stops cook late or wins on points.

I'm applying my full level of boxing knowledge here. I'm going for Burns KO3. Let's just say I have a funny feeling.

There was a lot more mileage on Brodie than there is Cook.
I don't give Cook much of a chance, not sure if he just after a payday or if he genuinely feels he has a chance but he got stoppped against Martinez and has been very inactive. I just don't see how he can be ready for Burns.

I must be missing something what's brought on the KO3 predictions?

With the bookies now on to it it could be that 'all bets are off' so to speak. In which case I think Burns on points is still good.
Re: Ricky burns v nicky cook thoughts?
It will be highly suspicious if Burns stops Cook, he is not a big puncher, lets wait and see.

Well we knew summat sus was gonna happen and it did. Sky didnt even the decency to reveal that all betting on this fight had been suspended due to suspicious activity. If we all knew about it why couldnt they say it as they are always on about bookies odds in other fights.
I knew Cook would pull a stunt cuz his paycheque was guaranteed. The BBBC were quick to defend him as they are the ones who sanctioned him so they have to stand by their decision. I just think its a shame for Burns who now has to wait a few months before having a proper fight. If he beats Fana for the ring title he will be up there with khan as unified champ (if he beats Judah) and one of Britains best after Haye and probably Carl lose their titles in 2011.

They said the injury was legit but it did not look hard enough. Warren said it was a freak incident, maybe he was in on it too?
