Comments Thread For: Ricky Burns Eyes Adrien Broner Unification For The Spring

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Ricky Burns is looking to meet Adrien Broner for a world title unification fight in the spring - but not in his next contest.

WBO lightweight champion Burns saw a scheduled defence cancelled on Saturday after both Liam Walsh and Jose Ocampo pulled out.

Promoter Frank Warren had been keen to set up unbeaten WBC champion Adrien Broner for his subsequent fight, but Burns will stick to the plan.

The only thing I agree with is Burns not fighting Broner in February, that's too soon for a fight of this magnitude, They can fight in April or May if burns fights in January.

Why even mention this guys name with Broner, at the end of the day he's just another stepping stone that doesnt want to get stepped on. Do we really need to see Broner spark out Ricky Burns in 3 rounds..? Not really.

[feroth]

how does he feel entitled to 800,000? its just the same as saying he doesn't wanna fight Broner cuz no one is gonna pay him that

Burns trying piggyback on Broner's name.

Team Burns will use the money excuse to duck Broner

Team Burns will use the money excuse to duck Broner

Thought they did already?

Either way, let them both take an "interim" bout and lets do it in AC in May or April.

What magnitude? This won't even be PPV. It will just be another showcase fight for Broner. Burns is a joke. If he thinks he is not ready for broner now what makes him think he will ever be in the future? He has hit his ceiling while broner is getting better every fight.

Broner should go after gamboa or vasquez and then move up to 140.
