Burns v Gonzalez

First topic message reminder :

I don't know too much about Gonzalez, but think Burns should be good for a pts victory in this one. What do you guys think?

Choi seems like a top man!

Looking forward to this now. Mon Ricky!

Also, if this guy is mandatory, why was Frank Warren trying to feed us Liam Walsh as an opponent?? Oh wait.....

Burns missing with almost everything this round.

Good round for Gonzalez that.

Thought this guy was going to be a crude slugger, but defensively he looks very sharp and pretty cute, burns really struggling to land early

Easy Gonzales round and his jab looks very good

Another round for Gonzalez.

Gonzo looks pretty decent. What's a British "world champ" doing fighting someone decent?

Another good Gonzales round, Burns needs to relax a little

The thing is that Miguel Vasquez fights exactly like this but is even better, so lets see how Burns can adapt

Burns in trouble here. This guy is good. Burns lunging far too much

Burns is just coming in straight lines and is open to the counters. Nelson needs to get him to find angles.

Another round for Gonzalez on my card but Ricky got closer the longer the round went on which is a good sign.

Zero head movement too from Burns and his cross is woeful

Ricky is getting burnt.

I've got it 3-0 Gonzales, Burns isnt landing despite the crowd going wild

Gonzales jab is winning this and he's setting up traps for burns and Burns is biting

I predict a Burns shut out on the cards if it goes the distance.

Looks like a long night for Ricky.

Making a mental note to put a few quid on next time that tipster captaincarrantuohill throws out a nap.

4-0

Burns is getting taught a lesson at the moment.

I bet Hearn is regretting signing him now. Poor Rocky, left the safety of Warren's safe fights and getting burned.

Better round for Burns but I still have it to Gonzales, slightly better work

4-0

I was thinking along similar lines Az.

5-0

Can see him stopping Burns here.

Think he might take him out here... Around 8.

Burns out of range and looking a little slappy with the right hand.

Jesus i thought Burns was getting into it but he was rocked there.

Burns felt his power in that round

Burns needs to either bob his way in and unload with everything which isn't his type or make it scrappy like Guerrero-Berto and neutralise Gonzales speed and long limbs

Gonzalez has thrown buckets of punches!! Hope his gas tank is in good nick.

6-0 Gonzales

Burns needs to go for broke....now

Another Gonzalez round.

Nelson isn't giving any advice, what's the point of saying don't let him get in to a rhythm? This guys rhythm is so good the crowd of grooving to it.

I reckon Gonzalez would give Broner trouble!

This fella Burns thought he had a chance to beat Miguel Vazquez?

No chance

Fair play to Burns he took some huge shots that round and even wobbled Gonzalez once or twice. Still gave it to Gonzalez though.

Only hope is Gonzalez gassing

Richar Abril would pick apart Broner

Incredible round.

Burns struggled to get through that

Gonzales looked dog tired though at the end of that round

Great round but Burns is getting stopped here.

Cracking round. Wow. Just wow.

Ricky is breaking the guys fists with his head. Gonzo is knackered.

Unbelievable round

Burns only seemed to trouble him when fighting during the exchange, which carries massive risks.

When they were taking turns to punch, Gonzalez bossed it hugely.

Won that one by default. Gonzalez just took a rest.

7-1 to Gonzales

First burns round, Gonzales took a breather there but Burns looked strong given what transpired through the 7th

Is Gonzalez tiring? Guess we'll find out soon enough. Good fight.

Burns knocks him out in the 11th I reckon

Another round for Burns without really landing anything. You have to expect another assault from Gonzalez though.

I have it 7-2, so burns needs a couple Kd's or a KO

Could happen as Gonzales looks spent whereas Burns looks reasonably fresh

Wow!

WTF!

He's not really landing a lot though...

Doesn't hit hard enough so depends what the judges have.

He quit? Seriously?

Why did he quit he was 5 rounds up... paid off....
