Got exposed by a small ice cream van driver who took the fight on 24 hours notice. Needs to fight more often, and fight Mitchell.
He'll be a "coming up short at world level" type of fighter, always determined but just lacks the ability to be truly world class. He doesn't have much of a defence. Good chin though.
Good fighter. Unactive fighter, which will be his downfall. Arguably in his prime. Won't go further than European Champ Imo.
he is a ood fighter, i'd like to see him against mitchell. imo he should stay at euro level and just continue to defend, he wont win anything at world level. but if there is a weak title holder at lightweight then who knows.
He's got OK power. His power isn't really proven Imo. I feel his next fight against Andriy will tell us more about his power.
Buckland is a natural S Feather and gave Murray problems. Gavin Rees would outpoint Murray no problem, just as high a work rate with more skill. Rees is the best lightweight in Britain Factomundo.
Nobody's calling him a world beater, though, Hooch. He's an exciting fighter, that's about the highest praise anybody's dishing out.
Very true, but he does get a lot of hype and Rees is always forgotten when Murray or Mitchell threads are thrown around. Having said that the fact Murray has been so inactive is a disgrace and he deserves much better. Like you said good fighter to watch and thats all you can ask for.
