Ricky Burns, George Groves, Billy Joe Saunders and Tony Conquest will defend their titles on the big end of year event in the capital, live and exclusive on BoxNation (Sky Ch. 437/Virgin Ch. 546), with even more title fights to be added.

Iv'e got a feeling Burns might fight Rees. Could be a decent scrap that..Rees is always game.

If Warren said its going to be a top 10 rank in the WBO, well here is the rankings, obviously there is a few fighters in that list already tied-up in fights :

1 Adrien Broner USA
2 Kevin Mitchell GB
3 Sharif Bogere UG
4 Jose A. Gonzalez (Latino) PR
5 Sergio Thompson MEX
6 Marvin Quintero MEX

To be honest, the best fights on there after Broner, is either Thompson or Rees.

I'd have no problem with a Rees fight. Wouldn't mean too much on the world scene but those of us that follow the sport know that Rees is a very good test.

This is a cracking bill though & I hope he gets decent opponents for the lot of them.

sounds like a good card. Rees fight would be difficult to make as im sure he's with matchroom. however at least he's keeping active, cant knock him.

Time Boxnation completed a deal with a US network to show these cards.
