    I have to give it to Vera even though that stoppage was questionable. He was relentless taking big shot after big shot and then dishing punishment of his own. In Lee's last fight against Falliga he got hit with some wide shots and Vera was landing with wide shots as well. The difference was he never stopped and landed enough to hurt Lee badly. Im honestly shocked right now.

      Atleast Vera is very respectful in the interview.

        Ugly stoppage but Vera can take a punch and keep coming.

        I think he would've finished Lee off even without the idiotic referee stepping in because he was simply too tough for Lee.

        If you can't hurt a guy, what stops him from coming at you?
        Lee lacked the defense and toughness to make up for his lack of KO power (not saying he doesn't have power but he didn't have enough to hurt Vera).

        I think Lee will be back, possibly in a rematch against Vera but we won't be hearing about Lee vs Pavlik again for another year or two.

          yea... good chin... I wonder how hard lee hits...

          Actually i wonder how good those guys lee knocked out were,... I saw him knock out the old black guy.

          Wonder if they had great chins.
