    Hopefully crawford will step it up this fight and go for a knockout or at least try to impress.

        Burns has looked vulnerable in pretty much every fight he's had at a decent level. If he travels for this I can see him losing his belt. Saying that Crawford isnt the superstar hes being hyped up to be, not by a long shot, and burns will give him a decent test

          Moreover, why would you have a guy from Nebraska and a guy from England fight in NYC? WAHHHHHHHH?

            Yeah.

            Still one of the fights to be made at 135 though.

              Well, MSG is still considered a huge boxing locale, even if it is in the theater.
              Bob doesn't want it in England and don't know how well it'd sell in OK.

              I might go.... depends on the card

                Mr Bills,

                Burns is from Scotland, not England. Same slab of land but you'll likely get a Glaswegian Kiss if you call a Scotsman 'English'.

                But I totally agree. Burns fans won't travel & I don't know what fanbase Crawford has. It's not quite as bad as having Geale fight Barker in AC (that fight was screaming out for West London) but still a weird decision.
