Comments Thread For: Hearn: Adrien Broner vs. Gavin Rees Terms Reached

[4Corners]

Are you on about Broner or Rees?

If you're on about Rees, the fact Burns hasn't fought him yet shows you how far behind Rees is. That fight would've happened in a heartbeat if Rees was the tiniest bit relevant.

I can't understand what's up with these promoters picking the Brits before they've reached that level. Look how shallow Martinez's resume is because of his recent opposition.

Yet we had people on here defending Sergio Martinez for fighting Darren Barker at the time, and still defending Martin Murray for christ sake....

I'm not a fan of Rees-Broner, but it's a stay busy fight. The other fights against Beltran, J. Murray, Mitchell, would be just as ehhhhh at best. Hopefully Burns stops avoiding Broner.

broner is gonna get laughed at when everyone realizes he's fighting someone who's 5 feet tall. the guy on the right's 5'8. the guy on the left is rees. this is gonna be hilarious.

Damn that is just insane. "Broner #5 p4p".

It is what it is at this point. The LW division isn't deep at all, and Gavin Rees is a regional fighter at best.

Should be good for a KO on a card with another KO in the making, Banks/Mitchell.

Listen, if a Brit is fighting an you're unsure on their quality - consult me.



A lot of the people defending the likes of Barker/Murray/Rees just look at resume and don't know what they're looking at. Burns isn't avoiding Broner, his management team are. He's managed by Morrison and promoted by Warren, so there may be conflicts there.

I only make the distinction, not because I'm pedantic, but Burns is a good guy and looked genuinely embarrassed with the Walsh fight. He'll fight anyone, anywhere and wants to rack up a 100 fight record. He'll fight Broner at some point this year hopefully and it should be a good contest.

Hopefully we'll see Broner-Burns in May.

And he's got a style that will give Broner problems or, at the very least, show us more of what's really behind all the flash.

This is going to be a massacre

Who the hell is Gavin Rees?

The cherry picking continues. Floyd #2 in the making.

"The ultimate goal," Mayweather told Broner, "is to get you to that level where it don't matter who you're going in [the ring] with."

[Mr. Philadel]

Something tells me that you're a fan of mostly African American fighters.

and?!?...I'm allowed to like who I want...is it a bad thing for a American to like mostly American fighters?!?...Asians rock mostly with the Asian fighters, Mexicans with the Mexicans...Brits with the Brits ...Ricans with the Ricans and so on...thats how most fight fans rock

so I think its really corny to try and come at me sideways for liking Broner and not bashing this fight...shame on you...you dudes are a bunch of e bullies...str8 up man...you dudes love to take it there....fall back...way back!!

now get back to hating on Broner...I like how yall do that

"The ultimate goal," Mayweather told Broner, "is to get you to that level where it don't matter who you're going in [the ring] with."

He was obviously talking about it won't matter which guy he fights, he'll make good money. Floyd could fight anyone today, and make good money.

Rees is a stay busy fight. Lets hope for Broner-Burns in May.
