Murray v Rees almost signed

Both fighters agreed terms and are waiting on Warren to give the go ahead so say Sky Sports - December has been mentioned.
Great fight in my opinion and a very tough return fight for Murray, coming off two tough fights vs Mitchell and Rios.

Thoughts and predictions??

Will be cheering for Rees, but Id expect Murray to stop him on his feet late on.

I was a big Murray fan, but i'm not sure he's really got the heart for it.

I'd expect Rees to win, probably on points.

Hope John gets a good win, though. He was looking like one of our best prospects for a while.

Rees has blown hot and cold since his move to lightweight often gassing or slowing down at irregular points in the fight but always comes back

If Rees can keep it going for 12 rounds he should be too good for Murray and should win a points decision or Murray getting stopped on cuts and swellings

I loved watching Rees drung his purple patch, which reached its peak when he took the world title at 140.

I havent seen him fight in the last couple of years, but if he is, what he was, then comfortable points win for him. Never been that impressed by Murray.

I rate Murray's heart, just don't think he has talent for world level. He and Rees are well matched. Should be a very good domestic fight.
