    What next for Rees? Would he fancy a scrap with Mc Closkey for Euro title? Although Mc Closkey would spark him IMO since Rees just walks forward and would be asking for trouble

    Ree's is a top little fighter, hope he gets the exposure he deserves on the back of the prizefighter win.

    Don't blame him.

    Forbes is decent..... would be better at 140 rather than 147 I think.

    At 147 it's understandable. Forbes is tricky too.

    In which case he should take it IMO difficult but he ain't getting stopped so a loss is no biggy

    Gav has said that he is fighting at 135 now.

    He would have hung around at 140 for the fight against Alexander that was mentioned but that was all.

    Murray for the European I reckon.

    Yep, Rees vs Murray is one of the best domestic fights to be made along with Barker-Macklin.
