In this fight there was a chance that if it went the distance Rees would get the decision, regardless of the fight's events.

However, Woodhall, being a noted boxer and popular man in the eyes of both boxers and the public, would surely have been viewed dimly had he come out and said "Ree's is muck, Kotelink should kill him."
Perhaps there is a personal relationship between Woodhall and Rees? Is it possible that Woodhall didn't want to offend Rees.

Finally, the opinion of a former World Champion means far more than ours.
