Ricky won't need the judges, just like Froch didn't in Nottingham, despite people insisting he would.

I never did find out the day when Mitchell all of a sudden became good. How long the Burns groups gonna keep milking that win? But than again what else they gonna use? The Cook knock out? Anyways, Burns did look nice when he stopped Mitchell. But Mitchell was never all that good anyway. And if I remember correctly was he not dealing with legal issues going into the fight? Burns stopping Mitchell might impress a lot of people. But that's cuz they see it for more than it really is

Add in the Moses & Katsidis wins & Burns opponents at 135 are on par if not better than Vasquez at the weight

I think both guys match up well...

There is no such thing as the Burns group. Ricky has earnt his own reputation, and Mitchell didn't suddenly become krap because Burns, outboxed, outfought and outpunched him. Credit where credit is due.

This is one of the fights I'm most looking forward to this year. I'm pulling for Vasquez because I think he's a great all-around boxer. I believe he's vastly underrated. On the other hand, Burns is legitimate too. If he beats Vasquez, does he put himself on the list of greatest Scottish boxers?

That's how I feel too

Should Burns win I feel he'd be among the top 3-5 arguably

What are you on about, A KO is a win and you can only win lose or draw in boxing, you are making
a statement that Mitchell was not that good anyway.! Strange most people seemed to rate Kev he
was or still is a very good fighter.Burns has improved greatly and deserves,people's support.
He's a nice guy, a true professional a credit to the sport pity there are not more like him.;)
