Crolla vs Burns: When are Anthony Crolla and Ricky Burns fighting? Start time, TV channel
REUTERS Anthony Crolla and Ricky Burns will face off on Saturday night
Burns is a three-weight world champion but lost his WBA light-welterweight title to Julius Indongo on home soil back in April. The 34-year-old now has six defeats on his 48-fight record and will be desperate to avoid another damaging loss. Crolla meanwhile also has a point to prove. Having become WBA light champion with a win over Darleys Perez in 2015, he beat Ismael Barroso but was then twice well beaten by Jorge Linares in Manchester. Now he will return to the Manchester Arena on Saturday for the first time since losing the Linares rematch - so here’s when you can catch him.
