    Not trying to be a d1ck but Burns was never good in the first place. The division happened to be god awful which benefited him greatly.

      I was about to suggest that it might have something to do with the Scots being infatuated with their own image as fighting men, then the Hugh McIlvanney quote from where I stole that line came to mind: ''Anyone who suggests that the Scots are infatuated with their own image as fighting men has failed to distinguish between infatuation and the real thing.

        Just glad Jim Watt wasn't on commentating duties tonight. Yeah Burns is now a glorified bum.

          Burns was never any good. His chin could hold up to a lot of punishment. I'll give him that.

                    Gonzalez fucked Burns up, Beltran finished him for good. Ever since then he's been terrible.

                    Defiantly wasn't ever an "elite" fighter but wasn't a "bum" at all.

                      I remember when he turned down the biggest payday of his career to fight Broner. How things have changed....
