Comments Thread For: Roman Martinez a Big Favorite To Beat Ricky Burns
UNDEFEATED super-featherweight champion Roman Martinez is the big odds-on favourite at 1-4 on Betfair to successfully defend his WBO title at Kelvin Hall, Glasgow, on Saturday night.
Burns is going to have to do some running if he is to last the distance with Martinez.
Stranger things have happened but if Martinez connects with that left hook its night night I think. Look what it done to Cook!
Burns can be a little slick at times so his only hope is to take it to the later rounds and hope that Martinez fades. My heart says he might just shock us but my head says domestic level, european at best for Burns.
As much as I'd love a Scottish world champ but I can't argue with the punters on this one, it ain't going to happen.
The Simpson fight will be another tough one but should be a great wee scrap regardless of the outcome (come on Simpson another war) and I'll be intersted to see how Paul Appleby does in his ring return. Bout time he was back in the ring!
Burns is a decent fighter but is no way near the quality of martinez, this is going to be a one sided mauling
All Burns need to do is stay on his feet and survive til the last bell and he is gonna win, it wont matter if Martinez pounds him every round... the smug brits are gonna rob him and do everything they can to make shure Burns wins.
