Gavin Rees v Adrien Broner oh yes

[Violent Demise]

Tough fight? Late rounds? Ya'll gotta be fucking kidding me. Broner-Burns I can see as a competitve fight. Broner-Rees is a gross mismatch. If Broner goes on the attack, I'll be shocked if Rees gets out of the 2nd round

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.

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

I don't see anything that Rees can do that will trouble little Boner, I respect how Brit's get behind their fighters, but Rees is going to get wrecked, I hope i'm wrong but that's just the way I see it.

That's probably because brother is....THE problem with why he can't hurt him
Rees is tough as hell. If he keep hitting the body that hard 11 more rounds... Nevermind

Rees was bending over too much in front of Broner, which Broner took full advantage of with punches to both sides of his body, head and midsection.
Rees won the first two rounds, and I really enjoyed seeing Broner take some good punches to the head and body.
Was relieved to see the Rees corner waving that towel.
Gavin Rees, a tough dude, I like him.

Looks are deceiving. Broner was no doubt surprised by Gavins hand speed. Shit I was. Gavins stature as crazy as it sounds allowed him to have that early success. Had he been as tall and big as Broner I'm not sure he would have had that success early.

Having said that if Broner has one weakness imo its his wide stance. He takes away his own ability to go to either side and Gavin also had success showing that a little. A guy like Gamboa who is just as fast and uses weird angles may cause him grief but dam Broners mule kick punches are a game change. I hope Burns is successful and they get together before Broner exits to 140.

i thought rees would be in the fight until at least midway until i saw them both stood next to each other

rees is small for a lightweight but even the bigger fighters he has fought he never looked too small, and even at light welter

broner looked twice the size, how does he get down to lightweight, or superfeather for that matter

This was first I had seen of Broner and for first time in a long time I saw a new fighter who was great for boxing - and one whose career I am looking forward to following. Cocky, sideshow, exhibitionist and has the skills to back it up (a mix of PBF, Naz, Mayorga, Paez etc...)

As I've said before over here in UK we don't now see much on TV of the big names from overseas (unless they are called Floyd or Manny \ or are fighting a Brit) so this was good it was shown on general Sky Sports as a freebie - though you have to subscribe to Sky Sports of course

But I agree with many of you that the first time Broner comes up against someone with a bit of pop and skill he will be levelled in hilarious fashion. And that just adds to his appeal for me.

Looking forward to it Mr Broner
