Boxing

Rees has a big heart but broner is as you say looking like a star and he completely outclassed him. Some of broner's work was just fantastic to watch.

He's a wonderfully skilled boxer isnt he, incredible timing and the power to go with it, I'd love to see Ricky Burns get a shot against him, I dont think Burns would win, but the lad deserves a 'big' fight.

Rees was willing to go out on his shield alright, just up against someone operating a level above him, good on Gary Lockett in his corner, I didnt even know he had become a trainer till this fight.
 

rees looked quite sharp and was doing ok for the first two rounds. the problem was, and this must be heartbreaking, broner was just smiling at him when he got hit. The big problem for rees was, as soon as broner decided to take control he did with ease. completly different level.

That uppercut was (for wont of a better word ) beautiful . It'd be really interesting if they made burns broner , burns has proved a lot of us wrong and looks a lot better than he first seemed and was brilliant taking apart Mitchell . You'd fancy broner but burns is a step above Rees

i'd want a lot of money to take the punishment borner will hand out.

Without doubt, not sure I would back Burns to win, but like you said what he has done with his career is outstanding, I'll be honest and say that when he first came on the scene I never thought he could be this good, even when he beat Rocky Martinez, I thought he'd have a short stint as champ and then maybe go back to european level. Apparently he's a top lad aswell, which is makes it all the better.
 

Anyone see the Carl Frampton fight against Kiko Martinez (no relation) last week? That lad looks good to my ignorant eyes.

I don't think he's as good as his team would have you believe but I do think he looks decent and he's progressing well , there as some good domestic fights to be made in that division.

Seems to have good footwork, can hit, can take a punch and is pretty clever.

Lost track of the boxing in recent years as there was never any on telly in Spain till recently. Getting back into it again though

Hes a talent, gets tagged a fair bit though, and your Kiko is probably on the slide a little bit, remember Rendall Munroe beat him and he was just short of world class himself, like Sheeds said some good domestic fights, Quigg being the obvious one.

Hell of a tough division though, with Donaire, and one of my favourite amateurs Rigondoux (chico probably lived next door to him for a bit), but plenty of exciting fights, and he seems to have skys backing so he should be a name
 

Anybody gonna watch Price fighting tonight, prob his biggest test yet i think.

Lamont Petersen won last night against Kendall holt to get his career back on track after the drug test failure.
