no way! Sergio isn't a big puncher. PWill was a fluke. He will stop him late if at all. I lean towards UD but an easy UD for Maravilla

If I didn't hate New York City so much I would go to this fight no doubt.

People are writing off Lee but he is even bigger than Williams and will tower over Martinez.

Martinez fights with his hands down and Lee has a long jab and is a very precise puncher if nothing else.

This will be a much better fight than it initially appears.

I was going to say that Emmanuel definitely does not have Andy's best interest at heart by matching him so tough but actually this might be the only opportunity Andy gets at the world class level. His career has been a bust so far. He hasn't lived up to any of the pre-hype and lost his HBO debut fight!

The Vera fight was on ESPN Friday Night Fights and there were some extenuating circumstances there that people don't like to acknowledge.

Lee, for what it's worth, overtrained himself for a TV fight and came in 2 lbs under the limit. If you look at Lee's recent fights he hasn't even made the 160 limit in a long time so coming into the Vera fight at 158 should have set off some alarms.

Also, they allowed Vera to come into the fight at 162, they could have forced him to take off the weight, but were overconfident and did not. Ultimately Lee ran out of gas and Vera had a full tank because he didn't work to make the weight.

Not saying Lee is gonna whoop Martinez or anything, just that people need to look at the Vera fight and realize that it was not simply a matter of Vera being the better fighter,

[any craic lad?]

Shouldnt be happening but still Lee shouldnt turn it down you dont get a world title shot like this every day and a shot at a top 3 p4p
