seven inch reach disadvantage?

stoppage loss to kotelnyk?


i'm not sure if i've seen this guy fight. i watch a lot of euro cards, so i probably have. i don't remember him.

somebody tell me why this man won't be killed..

Broners just doing what everybody ahead of him has done. When you feel your the best you boast about it, even if you havent proved it yet. A yr and a half ago Khan boasted so much some of you's, but never me, started believing his bull****. There will come a time when Broner has to prove hes the best. Just wont be against this bum Rees.

You are delusional.. Maravilla has fought Margarito, Cintron, Williams x 2, Pavlik when lineal, Dzinziruk, JCC Jr.

Who the f*@? have Golovkin, Pirog, Geale fought? Jacobs, Prok, Ishida, Sturm.... Wow very impressive... Sturm is probably the best threat THEY combined have ever fought. Sure they are all good little fighters full of POTENTIAL. But nobody OWES thrm ***** yet!!!!

They dont deserve a title shot yet. When you are a lineal people will always complain that you are ducking even though they arent worthy of a shot yet.

Sergio-Margarito wasn't a big fight when it happened and he lost anyway.

Sergio gets his due for Cintron, Williams, and Pavlik. Chavez and Macklin were also solid/decent wins. Dzinziruk....fine I'll give you that. He was at least Top 10 at 154.

But Darren Barker and Martin Murray, are you serious??? Figting Rees is better than fighting Barker, he's at least Top 10 at 135. And it's about equal to Martin Murray.

And the whole "What have those guys done" excuse goes straight out the window when you bring up Sergio's last 5 opponents. Dzinziruk had never done anything at 160, Barker as a 160 fighter had never done anything, Macklin had one good "win" (should have been a win) over Sturm, Chavez had one legit win over Zbik and an alright win over Lee, and Murray has only ever fought Sturm too. So yeah, those 3 have done enough to earn a Sergio fight, the standards aren't exactly that high. Golovkin beat Proksa, who was Top 10. Pirog at least had an alright win over Jacobs at the time, and has been calling Sergio out for like 2 years now. And Geale beat Sturm officially and took his title.

I wanted Sergio-Geale for Sergio's next fight.

Rees is a decent fighter. An above European level but not really world level.

He's a solid stay busy fight against a ranked 135 lber and he's going to get killed.

But, it's not his fault Burns won't fight him.

Iron Dan, stop ducking my Gary Sykes post on the page before this one.

archive this post just in case they don't fight and 3 years from now if broner is a top p4p fighter you can bump this when the "he ducked burns" threads pop up.

[El Angel]

Rees doesn't hear the bell for the 5th. Hopefully it leads to Burns in May.

[IronDanHamza]

Good grief, Broner!

Rees, to be fair, is a good little scrapper with a massive heart who throws tons of punches....but cant crack an egg and is ******ly easy to hit.

This is the definition of easy work.

If only he fought someone on Darren Barkers level.

[4Corners]

I think Broner will stop Rees in 3 rounds.

If only he fought someone on Darren Barkers level.

Or Martin Murray, but with the serous run he's been on (Dzinz, Barker, Macklin, Chavez), he deserves an easier fight like Murray.
