Another UK Robbery!!!!!

Burns managed to avoid defeat, yet again after getting beaten up for most of the fight.

Shocking scorecard, how could you have it a draw, lets alone Burns up by 3 rounds.

Burn got put down was back peddling and on the rope and grasping Beltran like a drunk girl dancing at the prom.

Why would any foreign fighter want to come to the UK to win a title, let alone to defend one.


Shocking Shocking result

So according to some on here, Burns was favored because he was the home fighter, and he was also favoured because he was the championed, by the judges.

So Beltran started the fighter 2 rounds down

Still had Beltran winning

Maybe Burns gets a extra point for being a nice bloke, and another point for fighting on with a dislocated (broken) jaw.

Hmmmm now I can see how one judge scored it a draw

One of the judges had Burns winning by 115-112

Terrible decision.
Watched the fight again and can't see how Burns scraped a draw.

Here is one of the reasons why boxing needs a kick up the rear end

"A broken jaw? you know how difficult it would be for him to even speak if he had a broken jaw?"

Aye I do, my mate had his jaw broken on a night out and we were ripping the pïss out of him the day after telling him to man up, slapping him in the face etc.

It was only after he went to a&e the next day and had plates and pins put in his face that we realised he wasn't being a big Jessie.

You can talk with a broken jaw

it depends on the extent. there's a difference between a fractured jaw and a broken jaw. i'm guessing your mate had a fractured jaw.

Burns did an interview after the fight. Nails. I seem to remember Abraham getting a similar decision in a similar fashion. It isn't right, but it happens. Especially with American judges.
