Ed Robinson is joined by Ricky Burns to set the scene for the Scotsman's world title fight with Michele Di Rocco on Saturday night.
Burns will attempt to become a three-weight world champion when he challenges Michele Di Rocco for the vacant WBA super-lightweight title in Glasgow, live on Sky Sports.
The Coatbridge man, who has previously held world titles at super-featherweight and lightweight, is confident he can pull off this impressive feat in front of his Scottish fans.
Tony Bellew is another British fighter who is hoping to be crowned as a world champion when he battles Illunga Makabu for the vacant WBC cruiserweight belt on Sunday night at Goodison Park, live on Sky Sports.
The Merseysider has twice fallen short at world title level and is trying to win the belt at the home of his favourite football team Everton.
