Ricky Burns-Kiryl Relikh/Whyte-Lewison

[Master]

Ricky Burns will face Adrien Broner at the end of the year if he successfully defends his world title against Kiryl Relikh, says promoter Eddie Hearn.

Burns (40-5-1-KO14) is preparing to make the first defence of the WBA super-lightweight crown he seized by stopping Italy's Michele di Rocco in the eighth round in May.

His challenger Relikh (21-0-KO19) boasts an impressive knockout record and is trained by the legendary Ricky Hatton - but controversial American Broner (32-2-KO24) will be ringside for the October 7 clash and already lying in wait for the Scot.

Getting real tired of seeing Broners fat face rewarded for losing major fights and not making weight.

In fairness Burns was pretty lucky to pick up a title himself last time out, he's lost all of his important fights for a few years now. Seems like a solid guy and I'm sure he'll be paid well to fight Broner at home, can't see him winning though.

Nothing much has been said on this fight

Just thought I'd drop everyone a reminder that it is on tonight, unusual to have the boxing on a Friday.

Whyte-Lewison could be interesting for a few rounds. Lewison has never been past four rounds, almost certain his only chance is to rip Whyte's head off.
