    Tonight there may be three batterings.

    I remain positive though!

    Thinking about it that is true, Sturm and Mundine both defended there WBA titles against prospects that were way too green. This could be another one of those, but i dont think Frank would throw Gavin in at the deepend like that, so maybe he thinks Rees has a good chance:huh

    Why not throw Rees in at the deep end? He career didnt really have any direction or drive put into it. He's been fighting pointless 4-6 rounders on undercards. Its not liking his packing out arenas either, he may aswel let him have a punt at a world title. hit and hope as it were, what is he going to lose?

    Final predictions for this fight: Rees struggles to touch M'Baye who keeps Gavin at range and stop Rees TKO8

    Gavin looks really small and maybe a bit flabby, I hope he does well though win or lose.

    MBaye toying with Rees. Gavin's punches not having any effect whatsoever here.

    Strange opening 2 rounds. Is MBaye waiting for Rees to punch himself out?

    I have not seen Rees box but I think he is a scary wee man.
