    I dont think anyone will rush to fight this guy, could be even more avoided than Witter. Kotelnik just simply outclassed Rees, against top fighters he is likely to go full guard and is more negative than Witter, he lost nearly all the first half rounds against Witter until he remembered he had offense to th point that people thought he won the fight although he admittely fell short, his left hooks are pretty fierce, should lookfor a peanuts fight with Hatton cause he my just upset Hatton, I dont think Witter will step in the ring again with him, he should look for Khan though first off.

    Khan would be a fight that I think could happen as Warren don't see a big threat in Kotelnik for Khan..

    Kotelnik looks technically solid, but he's very passive in stretches, and he doesn't have tremendous firepower. Rees fought with a ton of heart tonight, but a "special" fighter would have gotten him out of there way, way before the 12th.

    Hatton would need the worst night of his life to lose this matchup.

    well he is a title holder so he will get some decent paydays by default.

    Witter will win easier against him If they fought again, Witter's pace Is better and he's more motivated now he's WBC champ.

    Kotelnik didn't outclass Rees, just too big for the undersized Rees.

    Not really, Rees was holding his own and made it a close fight but dropped his hands too much allowing Kotelniks size eventually being too much for him.

    Shame Gavs body shots didn't have much effect due to his lack of power but he did decent opening up Kotelnik's guard.

    Kotelnik fights the same way too much.

    I had the 2nd a draw, neither did much. Andreas pressed forward throwing little amounts of single shots as usual and M'Baye keeping distance being bullied back countering him.

    :lol:Which fight did you watch? You must have seen too many micky mouse and dondald duck movies.

    Rees put up a very courageous show of boxing.Props to the game Brit!
    Nevertheless,it was obvious from the start that Rees was outclassed by his Ukranian foe.
