Ricky Burns v Julius Indongo - rd-by-rd/Sky Sports

[Batman]

I've never been able to fully get behind Ricky Burns I don't know why, I've always liked the bloke but I've just never thought he was all that good, obviously he has managed to carve out a fantastic career for himself but he has never been one of the best fighters despite the world titles.

I can't see as though he will get himself back into world contention now and I can't see why Eddie is saying that Broner still wants to fight him, I can't see what Broner would gain from that now.

Burns said himself that the doubters will be saying it is the end of him and I hope he proves us wrong, I just can't see it this time though.

Many you are right, he was hurt in the fight and looked at times of being stopped, but it would good to see him against Crolla. Nice domestic fight.

Nice fight maybe but how do they sell it?

Both have come up extremely short when stepping up a level (granted Burns didn't actually realize who he was getting into the ring with) I can't see there being much demand for it.

God what a miserable bunch of moaners Actually both are over achievers and a match up between the two would be very easy to market. You have two unpretentious blokes that most people can relate to. You have the England v Scotland angle and a decent undercard will make it value for money. If you can engineer it as an eliminator for a title shot or some obscure belt then the jobs a good un.

Exactly, both are over achievers, both are unpretentious, neither are known for running their mouth so the England v Scotland angle would fade away pretty quickly.

It's a fight I'd like to see definitely but now that there are no belts up for grabs Sky aren't going to be overly bothered about it.

It'll take a lot to get the casuals to tune into a fight with two relatively unknown boxers who are both coming off losses and neither of them will exactly be throwing tables in press conferences to drum up the interest.

I was with you until that last part. I think both need to do more before getting an opportunity at an eliminator again. The winner could definitely move on to one. It would be a good undercard bout.

Cracking undercard bout agreed
