I like Abril, he might get fed Rios for redemption after Pacquiao has reconfigured his face. Right the wrong of the worst decision I have ever seen.

Dunno how burns managed to pull it off last night because he was getting outclassed big time (I watched some of it before I fell asleep) 7th was the turning point apparently then he took control. I'll have to watch the replay on Sky sports 3 HD soon

I think it just came down to who wanted it the most.

Certainly after the 7th when Gonzalez had thrown everything at Burns and saw him still standing there and still coming at him must have been a bit demoralising.

Conditioning too must surely have played its part.

Personally i think Gonzalez was totally shot and new he was going to be stopped. Preferring to quit on his stool.

I usually find those kind of things really awkward and unbearable to watch, but it was alright I thought. Steve Collins needs to wind his neck in a bit though. You've gone some when you're sat with Chris Eubank at a table and you're the one coming across as the biggest dick head.

I agree,,, he just sounded desperate the way he kept trying to prove himself, offering to get back in the ring with Roy Jones at his age was just embarrassing.

Although Eubank usually talks rubbish, I was surprised at how humble he was

I am, i thought he was eager to get back in the ring sooner rather than later and after the Klitschko fiasco i think he wants to be fully fit and look sharp for this comeback fight for who lets face it is nothing more than a glorified warning to the Klitschko's because he would flatten Charr inside 6 rounds!

I think you would look at something fishy if a chance at Fury suddenly appeared then we'd all have the right to be skeptical of this news! But other than that i think this is legit!

Haye is basically keeping in the news by any means possible. I'm surprised he hasn't had his own tv show on ITV2 yet.

Khan fighting at 147 in his next fight, get the popcorn in and get comfy for that one

Yeah should be a good fight, hopefully with it being in Atlantic City it will be on alittle earlier.

Really looking forward to Peterson/Matthysse. I think Matthysse will win and his punching power will be too much for Lamont who is a very good fighter himself but I think he will come up short. I can see Matthysse also beating Garcia so Khan is making a wise move getting out of that division as Matthysse would blow him away

I'm hoping for a Matthysse win, not sure what it is about Peterson but i just don't like him!

Really good undercard as well, i'm looking forward to it.

Something tells me Angel Garcia will be keeping quiet in the lead up to this fight.

He looked petrified but the funniest thing was Khan saying he would beat Matthysse. Like I said before, if that fight ever happened Khan would leave the ring in a body bag. Garcia has good power but he's limited otherwise and it will be another Matthysse KO. Matthysse deserves the Mayweather paycheck far more than Amir Khan who is just deluded

The guys crazy. Even Virgil Hunter has said that he will never improve unless he moves to America and works with him all the time. He nearly got blown away by a nobody in Diaz and if he can't put away Peterson then he has no chance against Matthysse. He doesn't deserve the Mayweather paycheck either

The time has come for Sky Sports and Eddie Hearn to put Prizefighter out of its misery.

It is terrible these days.
