      You act like he's fighting Gary Sykes.
      Why exactly makes Rees a ranked contender? He hasnt beaten anybody yet ring has him ranked #6?

      He's "ranked" right behind Abril and Burns, but his best win is Andy Murray

          I personally dont have much of a problem in him facing Rees because Burns avoided him but its not a good fight at all.

            It doesn't deserve criticism until we find out what he does for the last 10 months of the year. If he doesn't fight Vasquez, Burns, Abril/Bogere, then criticism will be warranted. I'm not going to sit here and defend Rees as a world beater but he's not a bum.

            But he tried to fight Burns so he's just staying busy to save the HBO date.

              Actually he's a closet fan.

                agreed but is that not because broner is so good? he is already at that point in his career where fans will only be happy with a couple names as opponents as fare as his weight class

                    Broner want get any credit for this fight even after he unifies the titles people will say he is ducking everybody at 140. Because of his personality he it will take a long time for him to get his credit.
