Comments Thread For: Photos: Ricky Burns Inks, Becomes a Matchroom Fighter

At the press conference, he mentioned he had evidence suggesting Burns had terminated his contract with Warren, that he had had it all checked out and mentioned Robert Smith so probably checked it with the board. Seems a legit deal to me. Apparently, Hearn and Warren are to appear on BoxNation tonight on Bunce's show. We shall see.

Ok, I can see Ricky Burns, and that's David Walliams next to him right?
Where's Hearn?

As expected, Warren is suing Burns:

Following the announcement by Eddie Hearn that Ricky Burns has signed with him, W. Promotions Limited and Frank Warren are suing Burns for substantial damages.

Frank needs all the money he can get to keep afloat.

Heard Matchroom announcing another major signing on Wednesday.

Hopefully it will be Frankie Gavin or BJS.
