    Matthews is a better boxer but Rees is a tough nut, I'm going with Derry to put on a show.

    Cleverly vs Bellew must be another night. Maybe sky will do it with Froch as a PPV.

    Rees must be a quality eventer MM?

    He only likes to fight for 6 rounds then do nothing for the next 6.

    Rees is highly thought of on the Domestic event scene however he's yet to make a real break into European and World scenes. The potential is definitely there though :hey

    Rees stoppage

    Really just don't get the Derry hype (although he has came across really well in post fight interviews etc.). The guy has been stopped FIVE TIMES, and is fighting the current European and former 'world' champ (at a higher weight). Come on guys Rees hasnt looked that bad in his last couple of fights!

    Derry is better than Watson and he pushed Rees hard, this could be a great scrap. Good luck Derry.
