Comments Thread For: Jorge Linares Training in Japan For Potential Ricky Burns Bout

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Venezuela's former three division world champion Jorge Linares (44-4, 22 KOs), 33 years old, is now in Japan and trains in the Teiken Boxing Gym in Tokyo to prepare for his next fight. Linares was last in action back in January at the Madison Square Garden Theater in New York City, where he was knocked out at 2:48 seconds of the first round by Pablo Cesar Cano - in a battle for the International junior welterweight crown of the World Boxing Council (WBC).

45-5 27 KOs.Tighten up whoever writes under "Boxing Clever". Linares, regardless of his chin, should still have the skills & speed to get Burns out of the way & get back in the LW convo. If Burns beats him then he needs to really sit down & do some thinking about his future. Burns, even though he's a 3-division titlist, is a decent boxer who has never been competitive with any of the top guys he's faced.

Burns is a tough guy with a decent engine, but I can't see him beating Linares. It will play out very similar to the 2 Linares-Crolla fights.
