Jaysus the lad is going through a tough time.
He is milking this brilliantly. The return to the ring will make him a mint. He is basically copying the Frank Bruno story ffs.
@Tassotti = Tyson Fury
It makes a lot of sense. Built like Carl Froch, Irish-English, mental issues etc
You forgot the scent of camp fire.
For those not interested in the Late Late Show tonight, Ricky Burns is boxing on Sky!
First round to Relikh
Burns starting to warm up a bit now
I’d still have Relikh two ahead but looks as if Burns is starting to dictate a bit more
Burns picking his shots now, Relikh starting to look ragged
Burns confident now. Relikh too inexperienced. Still tight but Burns should have it.
Relikh is technically sloppy, unusually so for an eastern bloc fighter
He is training with Ricky Hatton.
Those Eastern Bloc days are gone.
Relikh round. Wonder has he gassed himself there though?
Good finish to this. Relikh ahead again for me.
118-110 and 2 x 116-112. I couldn’t see that kind of gap in it?
Was only flicking in and out. I gave most of the iffy ones to Burns though that i saw.
Maybe so, thought Relikh had the first three and the last three for sure. Burns probably stronger thru the middle rounds but iffy enough as you say. Experience counted.
Did burns get a rub of the relikh then?
