RICKY BURNS has had a long, punishing career in boxing. Now 36 years old, he’s been fighting professionally since 2001 and yet his enthusiasm for the sport appears to be undimmed.
“I was 12 when I had my first amateur fight,” Burns told Boxing News. “Ever since then I’ve just been hooked on it. It’s all I’ve ever wanted to do. When I’m out and about people are asking me, ‘What will you do when you stop boxing?’ I’ve not even thought about it. I’ll know myself when it’s time to pack it in. I can still dish it out as good as I’m getting when I’m in the gym. When I’m in fights as well. I’ve definitely got a few years left in me yet.”
