    I fancy Rees for a late stoppage in a good fight

    I think Rees wins this, but I'll take 2/1 at the bookies for Buckland I think

    Buckland looked awful againts Stephen Smith i hope it was just because he was weight drained but i cant see him being a strong lightweight he was bullied by John Murray and i excpect Ree's to beat him clearly on points.

    I fancy Buckland on points for some reason, Rees i have a hunch will show up and be completely shot as a fighter think that defeat to Crolla might have done serious damage to him.

    That is at the back of my head aswell mate, how much has Ree's got left hes been around for a while and his best days are more then likely behind him.

    The other thing that got me thinking is, Bucklands coming off a knockout loss but they are still willing to put him in with Rees??

    They must be pretty confident he can get the job done

    I think Rees is shot, probably will be his last fight if he loses as well

    If he is not shot,Rees is not the fighter he was.The man who won a world title might have had a bit of trouble with Buckland,but stopped him.Much like Murray did.Now I think he has just about enough left to scrape a decision.Does anybody know if theres a red button for this card? If not,well miss a few good ones.

    Fancy Rees to stop him in middle to late rounds in a hard fought win

    I thought 2/1 represented pretty decent odds, but now I'm starting to think the odds are about right and there isn't much value in it.
    I think I'm going to put a bet on Anthony Joshua instead, gonna push the boat out and whack a 10er on it. £10.10 returns :happy

    Although I picked Rees earlier,Ive just watched Ringside and Buckland made the very valid point that Rees said he'd retire if he lost.Said if he's already even mentioning losing its not a good sign.Valid point and I wouldn't dispute that.
