How would have Ricky Burns done against Broner?
Most people thought he would have got eaten alive by Broner people thought the same with Katsidis. I personally thought Katsidis would have been too much for Burns but he did really well. After that performance say Burns never moved up in weight and fought Broner that night would he have put on a similar performance? Broner is powerful but I am thinking Burns would have given him hell. What are your thoughts on this??
Re: How would have Ricky Burns done against Broner?
Broner is not a one dimensional, come-forward at all times, block punches with its face type fighter like Katsidis.. so no, I still think Broner would have whooped his ass.
Broner would have made Burns look like a pedestrian.
Oh and another thing... Broner isn't a war-torn fighter like Kat...
Broner > Burns EZ
Re: How would have Ricky Burns done against Broner?
Yeah I think Broner would school Burns

He would of been stopped in 1. Katsidis was already done. Win over him means very little

So the guy who had Marquez on his ass only two fights ago, the same Marquez who just beat Pacquiao, is "DONE" and Burns win over him, in his first fight at Lightweight, means very little. Shit talk that VD....
Re: How would have Ricky Burns done against Broner?
I'm going against the grain and say that Broner wouldn't have had a walk in the park against Burns, cause the same way everyone's saying that Broner isn't a one dimensional war torn warrior, well Burns isn't a chinny fighter who always came up short (apart from his one fight against Caballero) every time he fought a decent opponent
I think Broner is a bit overrated and we've seen him struggle against one dimensional fighters in De Leon, IMO Burns has enough boxing ability and resilience to take Broner deep and beat him by UD

ummm maybe because Marquez ruined Katsidis? Burns beat a badly faded one..
And your triangle theory doesnt work in Boxing and it doesnt mean anything.
It's true, Burns beating Kat dont mean much..

haha so Mitchell was " supposed " to beat Murray from the beggining huh..
I know for a fact that 95% of the fans picked Murray to knock him out...
I knew Mitchell was going to kick his ass though and I picked him.. Look at the Saddoleague for confirmation.

Yes. Tell me Katsidis didn't pay dearly for dropping Marquez. That knock down was the only positive thing for Katsidis in that fight. Marquez beat on him the rest of the fight. By the 6th round you could see Marquez taking whatever Katsidis had left out of him. That he would never be the same. Sure enough, in his next fight he's barely competitive against Guererro
Re: How would have Ricky Burns done against Broner?
Burns barely beat a faded katsidis, barely, and ive seen many guys who had it a draw. burns was fighting at home though so ya know how that goes.
He is not an elite fighter.. We shouldnt even put him and marquez in the same sentence cuz it's kinda funny.
kevin mitchell is a british lightweight who can make some noise. Burns is second tier. id be shocked to shit if he could beat John Molina.
Ordinary fighter, this burns..
