And then the second so called duck is an even worse use of the word, considering Burns was going to unify against Vazquez but promotional disputes got in the way, put Burns out of action for months on end, the fight fell through and Burns had to go back to fighting mandatories. In that same span of time, Broner moved up for a payday against Malignaggi and looks like he'll be campaigning at 140-147 now.
Burns turned down what would have been the biggest payday of his career to fight Broner. The whole Miguel Vasquez fiasco happened after that.
