ok.........his jaw is broken. prove that it was broken in the 2nd round..........

When do you think it happened? That big punch in the 5th (was it the fifth or fourth?)

[ddangerous]

Massive props to Burns for continuing after have his jaw broke. It is not his fault Beltran got robbed. It's the judges. And the referee.

Wow, fighting 10 rounds with a broken jaw. That is heart right there.

Also a pretty valid 'excuse' for not performing well, but then again this is Boxingscene.......

Feel sorry for Beltran as he won the fight on the night.

Anyone have an X-RAY of Beltrans broken heart?

The worst part about this robbery is that is was expected. British boxing is flat out dirty on every level.

Boxing is dirty on every level. Robberies happen in every nation.

Having watched the fight it is unlikely the broken jaw happenned in the second.... A re-match should happen, whether it will or not remains to be seen.

I'm unsure why you are so desperate to try and discredit him.

I wouldnt be sure it was in the second but Burns isn't one for excuses, he is a humble guy and knows he has got where he has more on desire than skill.
That's not to say he is unskilled but he has superior qualities.

Jesus, there are some utter bellends in here trying to discredit Burns even though he fought for the bulk of that fight with a broken jaw.

'Prove it was in the 2nd round'.

Fuck off, mate.

Heart, man. Can't let the robbery completely overshadow Burns' guts here.

Rematch has to happen

I don't know if you saw the picture, but it's a clean break. Burns isn't looking for sympathy, he's waiting for jaw surgery. He even gave an interview post-fight.

It's more like Victor Ortiz than Tim Bradley, except Burns fought on (not that I blame Ortiz).

Burns will do well to give the man the rematch
