Re: Ricky Burns - Jose Gonzales saturday night fight chat thread
One more round and Gonzalez could cruise down the stretch, even boxing with one hand. Great boxer, but you've got to question his heart.
Burns is a lucky boy...I can't believe it.

Nah Gonzalez blew is wad over the first six where most of his opponents were laid out. Rickys chin held on and then Gonzalez had nothing left. Gonzalez could not even plant his feet the last couple of rounds.

Re: Ricky Burns - Jose Gonzales saturday night fight chat thread
I know we're not supposed to shit on fighers, takes guts even getting there and all that jazz but that was flat out cowardly Im afraid.
You dont quit a fight you're winning 7 - 2. He aint got no broken wrist.

Re: Ricky Burns - Jose Gonzales saturday night fight chat thread
Gonzalez fucking quit. Fuck him

Re: Ricky Burns - Jose Gonzales saturday night fight chat thread
Broken heart, spirit maybe, but wrist, nah.

Re: Ricky Burns - Jose Gonzales saturday night fight chat thread
I thought Gonzalez was struggling after the 7th round. He got tired and bottled it after that

Eddie Hearn - "he had the pressure of the country on his shoulders out there tonight".
Without mentioning the pressure of a promoter seeing his prize capture from Warren about to become a major loss maker.

Corruption has got nothing to do with it.

It was that unbelievable its not ridiculous to think there might be corruption involved..Ricky Burns at home against someone who was outclassing him .....Money, Bets, corrupt Judges as we saw in the fight before ..and we see time and time again ...Its not impossible the guy was whispered into his ear ... Did he even complain about the wrist during the fight?

I'm sober, I don't know he was tired but after doing so well I thought he could have carried on. But I don't know, it was a good fight.

He's trying to save face by saying its his wrist. The tank was empty and he had two flat tires under him. And on top of that his wrist could be broken from landing those wide shots on the side of Ricky's titanium skull.I mean you could see that even in the seventh round where he gave his last ditch effort. You could tell he was spent went he walked to the corner and thoroughly discouraged.
Whether is wrist is broken or not is irrelevant. Just makes him look stupid.

Re: Ricky Burns - Jose Gonzales saturday night fight chat thread
Gonzales tried to knock Burns out for 6 rounds. Why would he take the risk of beating the man he had been paid to quit against ? If he had bigger cojones he could make a big noise in the division. Power in both hands and good technique. There was no corruption.
Also how anybody can watch that and think that Burns would run from anybody is beyond me.

I don't know if he complained. I was not in his corner and my Spanish is rather pedestrian. Who cares if he was at home and getting outclassed early. Did you watch the fight or just put the tin foil hat on before it started? They had three judges from the States and an American ref.

Gonzalez was cruising the fight up untill the 7th where he fucked up Ricky... and Ricky managed to land his 1st punch of the fight..he didnt need anything in the tank to win ..just stay on his toes and jab with his good hand ...
It seems too stupid for me that any boxer in that situation would quit ...unless he was told somebody will kill his family if he don't quit ...or being a poor man could of took a bribe ...who knows

He had no legs after rd 7 under him. That was obvious to me and he most likely would have been stopped. He's a fringe contender that nobody has heard about with a 22/0 17 ko record and I'm sure they went for the Rtd instead of being tko'd. It was most likely a business decision.

Dude watch the fight, dudes legs were gone, has a bully type mentality, never been with a dude who took his best shots and was still coming. Take a bribe to throw a title fight that monetary wise is peanuts to winning a belt and becoming a star in a boxing crazed nation like puerto rico and making a shit ton of money...hmmmm.

Re: Ricky Burns - Jose Gonzales saturday night fight chat thread
Ricky Burns has the heart and the mindset of a champion.
Gonzalez has long arms and he's well-schooled, but sometimes that's not enough.
In round 7, Gonzalez ran into the stone wall of Ricky Burns determination to win, and couldn't get through it.

I do understand what a lot of you are saying, I don't know I just think he might have been able to carry on. It's tough to say really, I wouldn't mind watching it again.
