Lee Haskins vs Ryan Burnett fight time and where to watch it
IBF bantamweight world champion Lee Haskins travels to Belfast to put his title on the line against rising star and British champion Ryan Burnett on Saturday (June 10) at the Odyssey Arena. โItโs going to be a hostile crowd but truthfully it doesnโt bother me. Iโve boxed away time and time again so I know whatโs coming. Iโve boxed in Monaco, Belgium and Morocco and in plenty of backyards in the UK. It doesnโt bother me, a ring is a ring,โ Haskins said. โI hope the Belfast fans donโt give me too much of a hard time. Iโm really looking forward to fighting in front of such a knowledgeable crowd and of course to my own fans, Iโm always grateful for your continued backing.โ
