[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

WBO super featherweight champion Ricky Burns may be on the verge of vacating his title for a move to the lightweight division. Contrary to numerous reports stating that Burns is traveling to the United States to face mandatory challenger Adrien Broner on November 26th - Burns' manager, Alex Morrison, appeared on BBC Radio and said the fight is in doubt because Burns is having issues with making the weight.

"It was a big factor in Scott Harrison's downfall"

No it wasn't. Scott being an alcoholic physco was Scott's downfall.


Shame, I was hoping Burns would raise his level of comp, but looks like he'll be fighting a few more tin cans.

Had a feeling something like this would happen.

Burns was much better off at 130 than 135. Lightweight is a much deeper division, and I can't see him beating any of the top contenders.

Good news!

Ricky Burns would be a fool to go to the USA and take on an Al Haymon-managed boxer in his hometown, with a crooked referee and judges.

If Broner wants the fight, he should go to Scotland, where the fight would draw thousands of fans.

It seems they've run into a bit of a ...Problem.
