I know more people who backed Kats than Burns, all of whom were British. I know more fans of Katsidis than Burns. I know more people who laughed and downplayed Burns' chances than those who thought he'd win.
Burns was a domestic level fighter a few years ago coming off losses from Alex Arthur and Carl Johanneson. Neither Arthur or Johanneson made it far and the fact that someone who lost to them both is now a world champion is incredible.
But like I've said, ignorance is bliss.
