Comments Thread For: Eddie Hearn Believes Ricky Burns is Still The Same Fighter

[Sparked_26]

burns and broner will be on the same level and we can finally get that super fight we missed. burns will be the interim champ to broner yayyy

how is mitchell better than burns? burns resume is much better and he beat him head to head. seems pretty clear.

Mitchell to me has always looked the more skilful and powerful fighter than Burns. He is more in his arsenal, a better offence and can counter-punch - can fight off the back foot. Burns is pretty straight forward.

A difficult view to justify I accept when he got inexplicably splattered by Burns. Burns is obviously a tougher man though. I do think probably boxing gets over-intellectualised on occassion considering at times it is just two lads bashing fuck out of each other.

That said even if they fought tomorrow I'd expect Mitchell to win.
