By Scott Gilfoid: WBO super featherweight champion Ricky Burns (32-2, 9 KO’s) was supposed to be facing his number #1 contender American Adrien Broner (21-0, 17 KO’s) on November 26th in Cincinnati, Ohio.
But now Burns’ trainer Alex Morrison is saying he’s having problems making the super featherweight limit, and that Burns will likely vacate his World Boxing Organization title and move up in weight to the lightweight division to go after one of the titles up there rather than face the dangerous Broner. Looks like a good duck job to me. How sad. Burns is going to run away rather than get crushed by Broner on November 26th.
