Love listening to the same ole love song with a different tune

It's late for Burn and he is still trying to lure another title shot in Scotland. I don't see how that is going to work. He is again at home, this time with an unknown. It's a world title and it's only fair to go out in the world and get it. Give up the homefield advantage sometime, cut momma's apron string.

Why would he not do that? It's where he sells tickets and makes the most money. Why don't people get that?

Right. Just like Adonis Stevenson can make more money against B-Hop then against Kovalev.

It's smart business.

Did he fight Hopkins in his last fight?

He moved over to Showtime in his last fight. To set up the fight with Hopkins next.

That is a weak excuse. There is way more money in Las Vegas, or China. I'm not saying he should go to Puerto Rico.

Burns sells out arenas here and makes big money, he's not making close to that anywhere else.

I can see this ending up on the undercard of a bigger fight. Good to see Burns is still setting his sights to the top, wish him the best.
