I don't think even Eddie Hearn could have got away with fixing that one. This debate about being at world level will rumble on, this was Burns's 10th world title fight but how many of those were arguably hand picked easier options by Frank Warren, even before he joined Hearn and the questionable results?
Is the correct answer I'm afraid. In the day Burns wouldn't even have been good enough to have got a shot let alone defend it all these times. Great lad, decent fighter but lucky he has the Hearns and 24 different governing bodies around.
Not that I saw the last 3 rounds.......I fell asleep.
