By Scott Gilfoid: Former WBA 140-pound champion Gavin Rees believes that Amir Khan (29-3, 19 KO’s) would beat both WBO welterweight champion Manny Pacquiao (56-5-2, 38 KO’s) and WBA/WBC welterweight champ if he winds up facing either of them in his next fight. Khan, 27, is hoping to get picked out by Top Rank promoter Bob Arum for Pacquiao’s next fight in Macao, China on November 22nd.
Khan’s former trainer Freddie Roach is trying to throw a monkey wrench in the gears to keep Khan from getting a fight against Pacquiao by advising Arum not to having Pacquiao fight Khan.

By Scott Gilfoid: HBO may have lost Floyd Mayweather Jr. to Showtime/CBS this week, but they have a capable replacement with the talented WBC lightweight champion Adrien Broner (26-0, 22 KO’s), who drew monster numbers for his fight against the UK’s Gavin Rees (37-2-1, 18 KO’s) last Saturday night at the Boardwalk Hall, in Atlantic City, New Jersey, USA. Those numbers weren’t because of Rees that’s for sure because few U.S fans had ever heard of him. Rees was seen by many as just another lamb being led to the slaughter for Broner.
