Comments Thread For: Andy Lee Gains Revenge, Beats Vera In Landslide

[JakeNDaBox]

By Jake Donovan - Andy Lee finally emerges as a middleweight contender.

Once a can’t miss prospect, Lee’s lone setback – a stunning stoppage loss at the hands of Bryan Vera – has held him back for more than three years. The Irish southpaw went on a tear, scoring 11 straight wins since then and has been floated as a future opponent for middleweight king Sergio Martinez.

Lee can now move forward with his career, having now exorcised past demons after scoring a dominant 10-round points win over Vera in their HBO-televised rematch Saturday evening at the Boardwalk Hall in Atlantic City. [Click Here To Read More]

Lee just gets hits way to much. Even though it as a good win, theres something missing there.

Lee looked good -- definitely has some skills and Steward clearly has had a good effect -- beating Vera is not such a big deal -- even though Vera won their 1st fight, he's really a glorified B level fighter -- Lee / Barker would be mildly interesting -- would watch a Lee / Martinez fight and would make Lee a 'live' underdog based on what I saw from Martinez / Barker tonight

cong**** to lee, he fought a very disciplined fight. he ain't ready for martinez, but he could fight and possibly beat chavez jr or the ginger kid

very very good preformance by lee........ used to think sergio would beat him but seeing how sergio struggled vs a bum?....no ****ing way...

respect for andy lee.....

What a ****** pointless fight Martinez/Lee would be. I don't know if Lee will get any better then he already is tho. I think the guy is just limited. Not everyone can be a great fighter. While Irish fighters have alot of heart/balls, I've never heard of a great Irish fighter or seen one that made me go "Wow".
