    If he fights Rees then his brief swansong in the new division will be over. Rees will smash him to bits fairly easily imo.

    Hopefully, i have faith that Rees will be wise on his way to a world title and not just just from euro to world as we've seen a lot do recently

    in my opinion i think derry can be the best in europe reckon he'd beat rees going by his last few fights he seems to tire rees does

    hes got a fight with stephen jennings 1st on the 30th july its a british title eliminator

    hes already won the english belt against amir unsworth

    I like Derry, but Rees will stop him.

    I've always liked Derry as a fighter,clever,fast and great use of the jab.But SFW hes not as strong and hed openly tell you that. Derry is a true fighter and if the opportunity came to fight for the SFW world title hed take it im sure.
