Ricky Burns v Andreas Evensen

[generalbulldog]

I never noticed it until I saw the Gatti-Manfreddy fight again. But this Ricky Burns physically looks a lot like Angel Manfreddy, right down to the bad tattoos also.

Surely this has to end with the words...."and still...."

Burns was clearly the better fighter, and being much bigger must have helped too. Evensen was brave but not good enough 119-108, 119-108, 118-109.

Easy enough really, shame Burns couldn't get Evensen out of there, but a decent defence against a guy he should be beating, and hopefully a step up to better opposition in the new year.

It was a OK performance but the fight winning the title was much better.

Paul Appleby fight was good shame he lost.
