i saw gavin rees fight once. i wasn't impressed. broner will have a big size advantage. he also has the better skills, punching power, stamina, pretty much every advantage possible. this will be an utter beatdown. abril and vasquez are the only lightweights that will test broner at 35. its a shallow division and broner is content fighting guys other than the only 2 serious challenges to him. i'd favor broner against abril but it would be a good test atleast. vasquez has him on experience not sure who would win but it would definitely be a legit fight. guess we r stuck watching another mismatch though.

They are the same height! Both 5,7" and Rees has actually won the WBA world title at light welter and has stopped people at that weight. Broner wont be bigger, or stronger.

with all due respect to Rees, Kotelnik was able to hurt him once he started really tattooing him, and Kotelnik has no pop.
he's a solid little Brit/Euro level campaigner, very tough in those leagues. in the big leagues, he's cannon fodder. Broner has technique and power to go with it, he's going to get Rees out within 4.

maybe i'm misinterpreting your remark, but has Broner not already proven his strength at 135?
or are you referring to Rees' days as a 140 pound fighter?

I replied to your comment about him getting stopped by Kotelnik in his days as a light welter. Hes now at lightweight where he is stronger and quicker.
