Agreed, I can't take martial arts seriously anymore.

 

Too many numpties trying to act like wide boys. 

 

If Fury lasts the entire fight then I'm calling bullshit. 

 

I fell out of love with boxing when I realised how much Ricky burns was protected. 

 

 

I’m no authority on boxing but Ricky Burns was protected? Was it because he defended his titles against dud opponents or something?

 

Genuine question as I know little about boxing

Cotton wool and bubble wrap then thrown into a fall out bunker. 

 

In short, he was a solid average European B fighter with a great engine who overachieved and was in the right place at the right time for his belts. His manager sailed him past every major hitter in his class. 

 

British boxers are by in large hype jobs and cash cows for Hearn.
