Ricky Burns to defend WBO lightweight title against mandatory challenger Jose Gonzalez | Sky Sports

Revealed as Jose Gonzalez as expected. Before people jump on this, Burns is getting his mandatory out of the way so if he wanted to keep his bargaining chip, he had to fight this guy sooner or later. Hopefully he gets this outta the way and he can unify before the year is out.

Considering he was being matched against Liam Walsh a couple of months back... good start.
