[BabyFaceAssasin]

This fight is a joke and I can't believe GB put this together what's worse Reese thinks he has a chance...

[ElBossHogg™]

rees is 151 and 4'11 LMFAO

Browner is 145lbs 3 weeks out from his bout with Reese which means his natural weight is around 152lbs. Why can't he fight at 140 again??

[BlackSnakeMamba]

Broner will destroy Rees.

He's 23 and won the lightweight title in his last fight. What's the rush?

Because that's not how you manage a young fighter's career. He'll get there soon enough. Let him handle his business at 135 first.

**** fight yeah we get it...but if Burns wasn't afraid of Broner then this fight wouldn't even be happening

So Broner gets a pass from me on this one because the guy stepped into 135 and right away took on the #1 guy at 135, but after this it is no going back, next fight has to be against Burns, Abril or Vazquez (of course if he beats Rees)

You know why. To handicap him. Its OK for guys like Margario and PWill, back in the day, to cut 25 to 30 lbs and nobody was ever lobbying for them to move up. But Broner and Floyd must fight above their natural weight class.
