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.
