Considering his limitations, I do agree that Burns is an overachiever although he's got some gifts in his career over soft oppositions. He had a chance to face Broner as a mandatory but ducked him twice..

And yep, Crawford would dominate him and knock em out.. Burns loves to come forward so I can definitely see Crawford knocking him out..

which gifts has he got?

are you sure it was burns ducking broner?

did you not just see his last fight?! surely you didn't have Burns winning...but yea Beltran deserves a rematch or the winner between Burns/Crawford

I wasn't that impressed with Crawford. Seems like he doesn't let his hands go. Actually, I've only seen him fight once so I should probably shut up.

he's a good prospect, good boxing ability, quick hands, good movement, but IMO he was just a bit too intimidated by Klimov's 0, if he would have let his hand go he would have stopped him after the 8th, but yea Crawford using smart aggression beats the shit out of Burns, too fast, too smart
