You know that's not the same bruh. Burns was confronted by a gang of violent " youngsters " so he had all the right to defend himself by any means necessary.
Cotto on the other had issue with his old uncle who's few years shy of being a senior citizen. I mean how threatening could he have been seriously? Lol

seeing how moments after the altercation Evangelista Cotto went to Miguel's residence and threw a cinder block into Miguel's car and house window, wouldn't really say the guy was defenseless

Burns did the right thing I'm sure he coulda took the punks, but in the system we all live in today he probably would have earned himself jail time for defending himself, and then the fuckers woulda sued him for "damages". Good on burns

Not to mention fighting bare fisted is gonna lead to him having broken hands. Damn straight Burns did the right thing, why should he jeopardise future fights and his freedom because of some little shits??

Re: Ricky Burns nearly ambushed by young thugs.. Called the police on the little kids
Typical Britain, you can't even go for a walk without a pack of hounds harassing and stalking you. I don't understand why these youths hang out on street corners. a) It's cold and b) It's bloody boring. Why don't they play with their Playstations or play football?
There's an entire breed of these creatures swarming all over the place and they should really be put down like stray dogs.

Re: Ricky Burns nearly ambushed by young thugs.. Called the police on the little kids
The thing is All of us have a right, to defend yourself but
remember if you are a pro boxer, over here and get
involved in any trouble.? And you end up in court boy
do they come down hard, on you, we are talking doing
time here. Burn's, done the right thing Bud.?;D

Re: Ricky Burns nearly ambushed by young thugs.. Called the police on the little kids
He's Ricky Burns, the professional boxer, not Scott Harrison.

Would put £ on it also young hoods in Glasgow r defo likely to b carring knifes.this is such a stupid thread some guys on here 1 in particular have got serious issues with Ricky burns and have oviously never been in certain areas in Glasgow
-
Re: Ricky Burns nearly ambushed by young thugs.. Called the police on the little kids
He did right, he's a pro fighter no need to get involved in anything outside the ring. Even if it was self defence he would get done for using weapons or what ever the law is now.

But this whole, "If you're a boxer, your fists are considered a deadly weapon" law stinks to me. Surely I don't have to be a boxer to know how to throw a good punch? Or if I defend myself and happen to be a boxer it's illegal? Or if I love boxing training and happened to get good but have NEVER wanted to compete (Would I be considered a "boxer"?). I get it, if someone picks a fight knowing the damage they can do as a boxer then yeah...but surely it's such a grey area that no case can be cut and dry??
Gandalf, agree it's getting crazy over here - Been in Thailand for 3 months and don't fancy coming back hearing the shitty news that comes through. Although going indoors and playing Playstation isn't the answer..in fact, that's probably led to these socially devoid fools' behaviour in the first place. They don't know how to act or talk to people.
We used to play out all the time as kids but the absolute worst we'd do is maybe throw a water bomb at passing cars..that was as sinister as it got. My mum and dad woulda beat my arse if I got into any mischief..Now it's crazy. I just think some should consider very carefully whether they are fit to breed and bring up kids.. (Althugz for prime minister bitches!)

Re: Ricky Burns nearly ambushed by young thugs.. Called the police on the little kids
What we are looking at a bunch of little bastard's giving you stick,
you turn round give a few a good slap.?
Next thing your in the paper's in court, man will you pay for giving
them bastard's a slap. Remember he can't be Joe public, he is a
World Boxing Champion.;D

Re: Ricky Burns nearly ambushed by young thugs.. Called the police on the little kids
Frank Warren is lining these youths up as opponants for Burns next interim WBO title he fights for.
-
Re: Ricky Burns nearly ambushed by young thugs.. Called the police on the little kids
Good. Getting the shit kicked out of them would unlikely do anything for these kids except make them angrier and more violent when they came across someone weaker.
Police involvement however will make them think twice before attempting the same hijinks.
-
Re: Ricky Burns nearly ambushed by young thugs.. Called the police on the little kids
How is Burns getting criticised here? Fighting a gang of youths is like being the bear baited by a pack of dogs. If you start to chase one of them, the rest will pelt you from another angle with stones bottles etc. He's at less of a risk running away and having stuff thrown rather than trying to get involved and grab one or two of them.

Re: Ricky Burns nearly ambushed by young thugs.. Called the police on the little kids
Burns made a wise choice but I just thought it was kinda odd cuz Ive rarely heard about fighters calling the police for help.. These boxers are proud men and more times than not, we read about them getting into fights instead of dialing 911..
Burns: Operator, help help!! group of young kids are threatening me..
Dispatcher: ok ok slow down and take a breather... Identify yourself and what is going on?
Burns: I'm sure you've heard of me. I'm Ricky Burns, the champion boxer.. lol please send the swat team down immediately cuz im fearing for my life..

You are making light of it, but if he had retaliated he could have a) got into serious trouble b) get knifed or have a jagged bottle slashed across the head. The UK is a savage place with a serious youth crime problem, the last thing you should be doing is going 1 on 6 with a gang of youths.
He's a boxer and has his pride, but that doesn't mean he has to be an idiot too. I salute him on making a very sensible decision. Good choice.

In fairness, I'm not convinced everyone in his household knows who he is, let alone the 999 operator.

Yeah but this is in Glasgow. Burn's is a pro boxer, not a Power Ranger.

Everything that comes out that idiots mouth is shit!
He did the right thing. Getting into a fight with some twats on the streets could have got him jail time. At best a fine! Not to mention the bad press. 'World champion boxer assults youths' He could have messed up his hands that would be great for his career! Or maybe one might have pulled a knife on him and killed him! Seriously pride doesn't come into it, he would have to be as stupid as ElDickBreath to jeopardize his career by fighting some youths.
In a perfect world he would have beaten the shit out of those twats and they get some jail time...alas that is not the case!

Re: Ricky Burns nearly ambushed by young thugs.. Called the police on the little kids
By the way Burn's has got nice new Focus RS , nice car you
can hardly call him a flash bastard.? He is a nice Guy he just
want's peace and not shit , like me and you.
What did Burn's, show us he,s got common sense and he is no
fucking idiot.?;D
-
Re: Ricky Burns nearly ambushed by young thugs.. Called the police on the little kids
Some of us like boxers who do not have common sense and are idiots, Kevin Mitchell would have battered and shot the thugs.

Re: Ricky Burns nearly ambushed by young thugs.. Called the police on the little kids
It wasn't in glasgow, it was coatbridge(small town near glasgow) that's probably worse though, places like that around glasgow are pretty rough..In my opinion you are not at a greater risk of getting murdered in the glasgow area than anywhere else unless you are up to no good. Lots of young weirdos prowling the streets all over scotland though I think burns did the right thing they have no intention of fighting fair and if he hits them you can be sure they would be crying to the police and I would bet on ricky burns getting in quite a lot of trouble, stupid but I think it would happen.. What idiots though they a world champion boxer from their small town so people decided to throw things at him :rolleyes:
Burns could probably do with moving to a nicer part of the world though

If he is happy were he live's,why be driven out by a bunch of shit's mind you do
you want stick all the time.? It's up to Burn's.

Re: Ricky Burns nearly ambushed by young thugs.. Called the police on the little kids
exactly, ive seen burns fight years ago the went into JJB sports in coatbrig retail park a couple weeks later and he sold me trainers. Guy is a down to earth local guy. the fact that local scumbags done that dont reflect well on the area. everyone else in scotland is proud as fuck to have a world champ. no one gave him a chance against rocky martinez and he took him 2 skoool

That's true and it's good he likes to stay where he is from but to be honest it's a bit of a shit area to live in and it's not going to get any better so unfortunately he might just have to put up with people like this... it's a shame they don't have the proper respect for ricky

Remember they don't have any respect for themselves,so if you don't have
any they not going to give any.
Ricky has done well for himself, because he has worked hard for it no body
give you anything in the game.?:)

I know the area where he lives, quite right to call the cops, nothing to be gained from breaking a hand on a stupid skull or getting carved up by some little knob out to prove how tough he is.
