Ricky Burns to defend his world title against Nicky Cook

[armyash]

I like Burns He has stuck at it and it has paid off. Sure he is not up there with the elite of the game but he is always fit and gives 100% . I think he'll stop Cook.

If he wins he wants Fana for the IBF, who was knocked out by Barrera 6 years ago in 2 and who has also fought twice in 2 years. He'll have 2 belts then if he wins and Warren can try and cash him in for a big name fight.

Fana's been stripped of the IBF title for pulling out of the fight with his mandatory Argenis Mendez.

I think most of us saw these kinds of fights for Burns when he beat Martinez. They'll give him a few easy defences, let him milk having an alphabet title and then cash out in a unification fight. Cook's an underwhelming opponent, I don't think he's even ranked by the WBO is he? I like Burns but after taking an "easy" fight against Laryea he really should be looking a bit higher than Nicky Cook

Cheers for that info
