Kotelnick needs a KO to win imo
I think Kotelnik needs a knockout or at least a couple of knockdonws.
Regardless of what the Tim Westwood lookalike commentator says.
I told you Gav was getting knocked out tonight !
Yeaaaaaaaaaaah111111111111111111111111111
Ah well
That's that :o
Referee stops the fight in the 12. Gavin Rees loses the title to Kotelnik. Good fight.
2 down 1 to go ;)
What a right hand. Rees was brave, and wanted it more than anything, but that right hand that finished him was stunning. Rees had the effort but Kotelnik had the skills. Rees was on jelly legs before he went down.
Probably a good stoppage though.
wehey FUCKING YES!!!!
Got to say Im GUTTED for Rees, he really did deserve that.
Fought his heart out, I wanted to him lose for my joker pick but honestly it was impossible not to root for that little guy.
He really should be fighting at superfeather,
He won my respect in defeat.
Fuck Kotelnick, he's shat and doesn't deserve to have won, hopefully Ricky Hatton can batter the fuck out of him later in the year :mad:
after the little fat cunt was gobbing off about fighting khan him getting ktfo by kotelnik is laughable
Wow Steve Bunce reckons apart from Round 1 it was a shut out for Kotelnick :confused:
Rees won at least 7 rounds on pure aggression alone.
There were rounds where Kotelnick did nothing.
I dont see how people on this thread had it so close . I could see from a mile off Gav was getting kncoked out . In the 8th he was out on his feet and after that it was 1 way traffic . Bunce says it was a landslide for Kotelnik but 1 judge had Rees ahead
Does anybody know what the scorecards were?
Steve Bunce is a clown
you cannot win a fight on aggresion alone !!!
after have lost fights on this 'pressing the fight' bollocks it annoys me greatly fair enough u can come out like a mad man but if u dont land the more clean effective shots u dont deserve to win simple!!!
enzo calzaghe is being SNMACKED with reality :D
warren trying to spin this :rolleyes:
WTF was the announcer saying?
was he saying that someone tried to run in the ring in the 12th round?
2 judges had kotelnik ahead by 3 and 1 had it by 5 :D
Kotelnik was winning.
Can't wait for Ricky Hatton to rip him a new arse hole.
Man, Enzo Calzaghe's response to this fight is much more measured and calculated than it was the other week when Maccarinelli got knocked out.
I can see why people have such varying views on this fight, its all about what floats your boat. If you like aggression then Rees was doing that all night long, and moving forward and attacking, but if you like your boxing measured and clean, then that is where you have to look at Kotelnik.
Two judges had Kotelnik 3 rounds up and the other 5 rounds up going into the last, so I guess the judges like their boxer. It was an expected defeat from many camps, but Rees did himself proud, fighting much heavier than he should, and whatever happens, no-one can ever take away from him that he was the WBA world champion.

Come Bilbo....hop on! :D
possibly that light weleter debut for khan nice title shot in there
Agreed. A lot of Rees body shots were either low or landing on the arms. And alot of his other shots were being picked off by Kotelnik's gloves. I had Kotelnik ahead but I did have it competitive. You have to give Rees credit, Kotelnik hit him with everything but the kitchen sink and he just kept coming. He got dominated in exchanges and he still kept exchanging, he has alot of heart. But after the third round, aside from a couple of rounds, it was all Kotelnik. He landed the cleaner more effective punches and had Rees stunned a number of times.
I only started watching in rd.7 but gave Kotelnik every round from then till the finish. He still dissapointed me as he seemed very lazy, but how can Rees wins rounds he spends half the time hanging on for dear life in. Not to mention his flurries had nothing on them at all and every time Kotelnik had space to punch Rees was in deep shit. After I saw highlights of Rees being hurt in the 6th rnd, that would mean he had won 6 rounds before the 12th even if he lost all the first 5. I may have to agree with Bunce if indeed Kotelnik won even one early round, the ones I saw were all very easily Kotelniks imo. Also, a boxing forum is not a boxing ring. And if you gave Rees any round after the 6th, you probably shouldn't be around a ring, not to sound too cheeky:-\.
Hey Ono it's not over for us yet buddy!
Richie Woodhall disagrees with Bunce and says the fight was very close!
He reckons that if it went to the judges and was in Vegas that Rees would have got the decision :cool:
Ono we can stay here at Saddo's!!!!
richie woodhall aint got a clue !!!!
What would he know about fighting in Vegas?
I know they supposedly like aggression (but they don't really because Hatton would probably have won more than 2 rounds) but if he can't get the decision in Wales....he aint getting it anywhere else.
Plus Woodhall looks a lot like Tim Westwood so i wouldn't trust him.
:p
woodhalls the guy who has taken many a punch to the head remember,
nah seriously last week in my local paper (the tamworth herald lol) he was claiming this local pro , don broadhurst who won a gold medal at the commonwelaths in 2006 i think it was could be a world champ this is the same don broadhurst who has 1 ko in 7 fights and i saw on thursday night being thrown out of a tamworth night club smashed off his tits so woodhall dont know that much trust!
Thank you very much Mr. Hobbit. Bunce acts like his opinion matters. He's just a fat loud mouth with about as much boxing knowledge as a Doghouse boxing writer.
I had Kotelnik by a couple of rounds, but at times he was doing fuck all and Rees was throwing. Ritchie knew what he was talking about.
