Disappointing!
I thought Burns was ready for the step up but looks like he is having second thoughts. It took Calzaghe and Hatton a few years to get their courage up before they were willing to risk it fighting abroad and it appears Burns wants to take his time too. If he is happier cherry picking bums with broken backs at home then his career will not take off.
This was his opportnuity to appear on the world stage against a world class opponent. I think he should take it as another opportunity may not be offered again. If he turns it down then he will lose alot of respect. Nobody is buying this weight issue thing. C'mon Ricky! You're better than that!
