    Quiet start from lee

    Great win from him with the right hook

    Korobov would have been better served had he taken a knee

      Imagine if he could bomb out Golovkin. He is a legitimate puncher.

      Shame Macklin is done now because that would have been a lovely mix of styles and a real money spinner and mega event in Ireland.

      I think BJS would outpoint Lee but he could be put out too.
      "Imagine if he could bomb out Golovkin"... What's that? One doesn't have to "imagine", one has to call Golovkin out and actually perform the "bombing"... Give me a break with this "imaginary world"...

        Well done Lee, looking forward to him facing BJS now.

        Makes you wonder why Quillin ran for the hills.

          He is. He was interviewed by iFL TV and they talked about it for a few seconds. They used Romany but he said Gypsy and then Lee wondered if he was the first (said something about the Hiltons from Canada or something).

              I've learned that the "Travellers" usually are of Irish extraction, with no ethnic links with the Gypsies (or *****s -- as they call them in Britain)...

                It's complicated lol. Trust me. ***** to a Traveller is what ****** is to a black man. I'd recommend never using it when in the company of Travelling men.

                  I'm from a country that has the biggest number of Gypsies (or Roma people) in Europe... So I guess I do share a significant knowledge about the Gypsy history... And I can tell this: Gypsies have next to none ethnic links with your "Irish Travellers" there... The "Irish Travellers" seem to be of Norwegian origin rather than of Roma origin...

                    Somewhere Harry Greb, Carlos Monzon, and Marvin Hagler are weeping.

                    Middleweight division is stacked, but with fighters not willing to fight each other. Canelo, Quillen, andy lee, GGG, david lemeiux, Lara, danny jacobs,Geale, korobov--plenty of fights to be made, but all fightersbasically avoid GGG at all costs.
                    That's what you call 'stacked'?!

                    Stacked with **** maybe.

                      I think Korobov would've survived that onslaught. Stopped a bit too early. He still had his gloves up though he did seem out of it. He couldn't defend himself so I guess that's why Bayless stopped it.

                      Lee's punches after the right hook weren't that flush so Bayless should have waited a few more seconds.

                      But yea, Korobov should've taken the knee. He would've recovered. He was just stunned like he said.
