He boxed beautifully and hopefully he gets the recognition he deserves. He is now a 2 weight world champion... Only Scot's man ever to do it. His boxing abilities are vastly underrated and for those who will say he ducked Broner??? Katsidis is a tougher fight than Broner... Well done Ricky Burns.. 2 weight world champion
Very good win for Burns,i expected him too get knocked out but he showed toughness and a boxing brain too deal with the dangerous but one dimensional katsidis
Chumpion ducked Broner for a shot fighter in Katsidis. He didn't even look that good against Katsidis. Marquez looked way better even with the knockdown by Katsidis Marquez was winning by lopsided decision before he stopped Katsidis. Burns and Warren cherry picked Katsidis for this very reason.
You mean the same Marquez that made pacquaio look bad, the same Marquez who was the last fighter who was competitive with pacquaio. That Marquez.
Also won't broner give Ponce de Leon a rematch first since he had a gift win in that fight.

eh? you're comparing a ricky burns performance to a jmm performance? unbelievable.
btw, great work by burns and warren to 'cherry pick' arguably one of the most dangerous fighters at 135, for his first fight at that weight. break him in slowly, frank....
well done, ricky burns, btw.

Marquez , an ATG , future HOF boxer , looked better against Katsidis than Burns did ?
Shock ! Horror!
first full fight of burns's that i've seen and was well impressed with him. few things he could tighten up on but yeah he was doing right what he needed to. well done to him!
He is only a divison champ we cant start calling interim champs actual world champs on here it would be ridiculous like if that was the case Brian Magee is a world champ.Very good win for Burns although i think Guerrero took alot outta Kats wouldnt mind seeing Burns Demarco would be a good scrap
Great win by burns. Boxed well on the outside with a nice stiff job. Countless left hooks to the body from the outside. And when katsidis did
Manage to get on the inside burns defended beautifully and landed some very accurate, hurtful punches. Great all round performance.
