Same lads, a great fight, and im glad this was made instead of Broner tbh, this just helps build it up for when Burns ends BronerCracking card, excellent fight, the right fight to make IMO.
Well done Frank Warren. Not bad for a dinosaur

Not really a cracking card though, is it? Just name value with a good main event.

Groves-NDiaye might be fun, but ye so far its just two fights confirmed (Clev-Kras is sparring) so I'll wait and see, but cracking main event

This is probably the closest to a 50/50 fight you will ever see this day and age. Vazquez brilliant at what he does, and Burns brilliant at what he does. I slightly favour Ricky because of the speed and output, but if Vazquez can time him he'll be in for a rough ride

Really good fight. Not exactly going to be the most entertaining but whatever, I like watching Vazquez when he's on form. He was winning damn near every round he fought in the majority of his fights as champion until he had a scare against Quintero, which seems to have a few people sceptical. I thought he redeemed himself against Gesta though, granted Gesta was beyond awful in how he went about his work but Titere impressed nonetheless.
He often squares himself up and he can make that Cotto-esque error of leaning over his front foot but he's able to get away with it due to his knowledge of range, mobility and he's also pretty damn good at clinching. His jab is evidently one of his main strengths too obviously. It'll be interesting stylistically anyways, Burns will probably be forced into being the aggressor more than he's used to being and against a fighter with better movement than anyone else he's encountered.
Hmmmmmm.

People are actually gushing about the Puppet??
I've mixed feeling about this. On the one hand I find it hard to get excited about Vasquez against anyone. With a passionate crowd wanting his blood, he might be even more horrid than normal. Can Ricky actually look good against him?
Then on the other hand, I'm glad he's fighting Ricky as he's disciplined enough to beat him and end his fan unfriendly title reign.
A risky fight but it has to dramatically increase Ricky pay for the Broner showdown to be worthwhile imo.

Looking at that you could put Chis and Cleverly next to each other and Burns and Groves next to each other and picture wise they woudn't look too out of sorts despite the weight differences.![]()
