Anyone watching?

He's in a bit bother here imo. Lad he's in with looks very decent. Awkward, fast and hitting hard.

Yep. He tends to grow into fights so hopefully he does the same here.

He did better in the 3rd Round, hopefully he picks it up a bit now

Good round there from Burns. Starting to find a bit range and suss the guy out.

You can see the Hatton influence clear as day. Desperate to get inside and get shots off.

Good scrap now. The right counter from Burns with about 40 seconds to go there definitely saw the legs wobble a bit.

Burns lost the first two, I've got him winning pretty much every round sInce, maybe a even in one

The Belerussian guy looks like he could potentially develop into a decent boxer. Still young though.

Got Burns up but a couple of rounds have been tight.

Think he might just be breaking his opponents spirit a bit with how durable he is.

Still only 1 in it for me. Relikh slowing up not throwing as much. Good round for Burns . Now 2 up

Relikhs heart is gone here, can see a late Burns stoppage.

Body language says it all. Burns has a swagger going to the corner, Relikh has his head down and is constantly looking to Hatton.

Yeah spot on PB I thought burns would use more body shots like he used to do not a good round there

Great round from Relikh back to 2 in it

Didn't see that coming. Great round and a big one for Relikh.

Interesting if he can keep that tempo up.

Terrible scoring. Boxing is a joke sometimes, home fighter getting an unfair advantage again.

I had Burns by 2 and that was being generous. I can just about accept the 2 given him it by 3 but 8 rounds? No chance.

Kelikh was a prat in his interview. Has to learn that boxing is not brawling

It's immaturity, but part of the blame for that has to go to Hatton. Some of the advice he was giving him in the corner was utter rubbish. The lad had excellent amateur pedigree, so is clearly capable, I just think Hatton has tried to turn him into a heavy handed brawler. That will work against the no marks he has fought so far, but Burns is a world class boxer. Roll on Broner.

Broner beats him with one hand tied behind his back imo. Ricky is likeable but he was lucky last night. Having watched it back, that was a clear knockdown in the final round as well.

Broner, will PROBABLY beat him, but it depends what Broner turns up. Never a knockdown, he's got his arm around the back of Burns neck, but that is the subjective nature of boxing I suppose (who'd by a judge!!) I think it's harsh to say he was lucky, as I think he did enough to win the fight, although I do think the scores were VERY generous. If Hatton actually gave his fighter proper guidance, he would have beaten Burns, but to tell him to just keep throwing lots of punches when it wasn't working was just plain stupid.

He wasnt lucky last night, he was the better fighter by at least 2 rounds and that was never a knockdown in a million years

He was lucky, if that fight hadn't been in Glasgow then the judges may have scored differently. Relikh dominated the start and end of the fight. Just because he didn't dominate the middle rounds doesn't mean he lost all of them. And how was it never a knockdown in a million years? It certainly wasn't a slip, they were trading blows and he went down.
