A domestic-level fighter. lol.......what?

I've always rated Burns and like the the old school way he was matched tough in the early part of his career, he learned a lot from his fights with Alex Arthur and also Johannsen and came back fitter and more focussed. There's some good wins in there as well like the results over Moses, Mitchell and especially Martinez and although Katsidis was on his way down he still needed to be beaten and Burns did it very neatly and without any dramas. He nearly made a mess of his last fight and that damaged his rep....but I am going to stick my neck out and say that he'll beat Beltran and that Burns is still on upward curve and might surprise a few ooubters. B+ at the moment and the A+ only comes if he mixes it with his fellow champions.

Don't get why people were so desperate to see him with Broner before. I don't think that highly of Beltran either, but I think he'll beat him clearly.

a d level fighter

I think he's a B-level (B minus) fighter. He has pretty decent boxing ability, comes to fight, seems pretty durable, but doesn't have much pop. He isn't that athletically gifted either.

He is a solid fighter. He is always in good shape and has a good chin. He seems like a good guy to. I like him. He looked AWFUL in his last fight. Like really bad. I think he will win today.

He's a B+ fighter in my opinion, a late developer. Maybe I'm overrating him, we'll see tonight.

About a 6 out of ten.
