    As far as i can remember wasnt eubank unbeaten going into the collins fight? That says to me he wasnt over the hill. As for avoiding calzaghe, i could be wrong but i seem to remember something about collins wanting jones but for some reason having to fight calzaghe, going into training for calzaghe and then collapsing in training and having to retire on medical advice after headaches?

        he ducked joe and beat a past his prime version of eubank and benn.

        but credit where its due and benn and eubank were still good fighters. i think benn just had too mnuch wear and tear at the time, collins mind games with eubank were legendary - i dont think any fighter has managed to outpsyche his opponent like he did.

            Andy Lee should retire, if he can't beat a gatekeeper with his unlimited talent..

            Then what can he do?

                  But Khan's at LWW, Lee stands no chance in the MW division. Nor does he stand a chance in the SMW, LMW either.

                    Andy Lee will never win a title unless it's an absolute paper title
