Never saw this as a fight to look forward to, wasn't really that excited about it but because of the contrasting opinions going around I'm excited to watch it. I still think it's more of a showcase fight for Jr.Comment

I think there is a chance for Lee here to step up and prove something. He has been in a couple tough fights. It's possible those will have prepared him against a guy like Jr. who has plenty of flaws himself.
Jr. doesn't even punch that hard. He just pushes some of these smaller guys around and works inside. Lee packs more of a punch than Zbik does.
If this fight is onesided at all it will be in Lee's favor. I see a close decision win by Lee or he's robbed.Comment

JR will eat some punches as he comes inside, Lee has enough power and accuracy to make him pay...he has an excellent check hook and uppercut which could keep him out of trouble if it stuns Chavez enough to stop him in his tracks and he pivots or steps to a new angle. I just don't think he has the footspeed to pull this off for the duration. Once JR gets inside, idk if Lee will offer much resistance. He gives you a lot to hit as he stays tall when on the inside. It's not that he can't fight on the inside, he just needs a little more room to operate than JR is going to provide him with imo. I really like this fight, it's a pretty unique style matchup for guys that tall at middleweight.
ive got JR by decisionLast edited by LA_2_Vegas; 06-06-2012, 05:48 AM.Comment
