Pathetic really.

Burns has fought nothing but total scrubs since winning the title.

yeah its been disappointing to say the least.

Was hoping he'd try to unify like he said he would

I'm sorry but this is a joke. Evensen after the Martinez fight was fine. Laryea was not really, but there was promise of a unification fight with Fana afterwards so I accepted it. Now Cook, coming off a two year lay-off and 6 round win against a journeyman is just not acceptable. When will Frank actually put Ricky in with a proper contender/another champion? I didn't go to his last fight and I won't be going to this one because the opposition was/is so poor. It's a shame because I really like Ricky but Frank is pulling another fly one here. Not happy.

Burns sucks ****. Can't wait until he's forced to face someone half-decent.

warren low balled the african for a unification, then the africans promoters cameback with a higher offer and warren refused!!!

Luis Cruz should soon be his mandatory I think. Cruz will take that title from Burns.
