ordnance Posted October 22, 2017 Report Share Posted October 22, 2017 Well done Ryan Burnett. Northern Ireland's Ryan Burnett became a double world bantamweight champion by beating Kazakhstan's Zhanat Zhakiyanov on points in Belfast. The 25-year-old from Belfast added the WBA belt to his IBF title after 12 bruising rounds at the SSE Arena. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rapid rich Posted October 22, 2017 Report Share Posted October 22, 2017 And a real slugging match, would have preferred to see and bit more toe to toe than hugging and head rubbing though. Ricky Hatton very gracious in defeat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
