Burns looking focused

Nelson is pleased with how Burns is preparing and added: "He's looking very sharp, he's very fit and focused. "It was difficult a few weeks' ago but, now he's got an opponent, he's a lot more focused. "I've got a friend who has thousands upon thousands of DVDs of every fighter in the world but unfortunately, with Ocampo, there's only two rounds in the whole world. "However, every good champion can work out different styles and I'm sure Ricky will do likewise. "Ocampo has got a good left hand, but technique-wise Ricky Burns will beat him and power-wise Ricky will beat him."
