This. If the fight goes more than 4, I'll rethink whether Broner is as dominant as he says he is. No offense to Rees either. He's traveling to the US to fight a guy the Ring (inexplicably) ranks in their top five p4p.

I can see it going longer than, but I see Rees taking a beating the whole way

It will only be Rees' courage & toughness that drags it out

No offence to anyone, I hate Broner's attitude also (especially after the Escobedo crap) but I see him completely dominating

This is going to be one way traffic...think the Autobahn. Somewhere along the 5th,6th I fully expect Jim Lampley to have a complete and utter hysterical stroke as he wets himself praising Broners 'Complete professional dominance over a tough as nails and game challenger' :cheerleader: :rolleyes:

Its a showcase. Nothing more.

This is just an easy showcase fight for Broner..

But I hope Rees breaks Broner's face...

I like what Rees, had to say the prick part yes he is a prick, but the prick can fight.;D

Who saw Ringside? Didn't think Locketts idea of changing Rees normal approach was a good idea? I thought his rat-a-tat pressure is exactly what could make it interesting for a few rounds.

Lockett must be thinking he gets stopped quickly if he just steams in so they've already gone to Plan B. It might not take too long in the fight for them to revert to Plan A.

Both make weight, Broner was a pound under and Rees was half a pound under

Glad to see no issues with weight here...

Spells even more trouble for Rees imo

I saw Ringside, I'm wondering if I watch enough episodes whether I get a free T-Shirt or something. I also thought whilst watching that it is a shame Enzo was not still Gavin's coach just to laugh at the spectacle of the American press trying to decipher Enzo and Gavin's accents at the same time.

"you'll be lower than me when I knock you out on Saturday"

"that's right but why are you saying that for, surprise em Gavin,..its a me Enzo ,..."

Over recent fights it seems like Rees has started quickly and then started to run out of steam in the middle rounds before coming on strong in the last three. I can't see him not sticking around there into the later rounds, and giving Broner a good sparring session if nothing more.

Off topic but how tall is Rees? Boxrec lists him at 5'7 but I could've sworn I've see him listed at 5'3 or 5'4 in the past.

Have to admit even as a Broner fan that a part of me hopes Gavin busts him up. 33 to 1 lol.

Despite coming in at the same weight, come fight night they are going to look like they belong in different weight divisions.

I can't stand Broner and hope he gets beat, but the reality is that Rees is not going to be the guy to do it.

Was going to put a few quid on broner in the early rounds maybe 3 or 4 as much as a like Rees a just think he's out his depth here hope am wrong.what are u guys thinking? Any1 betting on this 1?

How this fight goes is on all Broner. If he opens up he gets Rees out of there early. If he wants rounds than he'll carry him for a couple. Either way it's his choice. Rees only shot of winning is for Broner to do something stupid and get DQ. Cuz he doesn't have the power to KO if he lands flush. So DQ is his only chance. The odds are 33-1 for a reason
