Scotland?s Ricky Burns lost his world title by a huge margin when he tangled with the unbeaten American fighter, Terence Crawford, in Glasgow recently.

Having recovered from the broken jaw he?d sustained in his previous fight, Burns was never in it against the talented American and his record slipped to 36-3-1.

However, you have to admire the Sot who, looking for a way back to the top, has decreed that he would like to take on Crawford again and would even be prepared to go to the USA to take him on, with Burns remarking,

?I?d love to get a rematch against Crawford.?

?I?d be more than happy to go to America, if that?s what he wanted.?


Since losing to Crawford, in Glasgow, Burns has changed his trainer. Billy Nelson is no longer in his corner with Tony Sims replacing him.

However, despite the change in trainer, I can?t help feeling that Burns should avoid Crawford as I really can?t see him faring any better second time around, can you?
