Andy Lee, powerful? or just good timing?

[Y0@NN]

i dont know, i think lee is just an average puncher with superior timing.
his punches dont look hard at all to me.

It doesn't seem like he loads much on his right hook either, let's say he just has heavy hands and doesn't need to.

The technical term is "Irish Thunder"

Pretty much this. Problem is he doesn't have much of an arsenal after that and can look lost at times.

he goes looking for that ko too much these days, he used to be a more rounded fighter but since getting a couple good kos, he just pushes forward, looking for a good right hook. it will be enough for bjs though.

i wish he had a better jab lol

It sure as hell isn't the frequency of his punches because he threw about 5 per round in the fight against Quillin. Lemieux or Golovkin or Canelo or even Cotto would take him apart in short order.

he doesnt throw much, but he throws/trades enough to break even/get the better of the exchanges... at least thats what it feels like when i watched his fights.

I would say both... Timing can make an impact but what Lee shows to me is a combination of both. He often waits and takes his time early in fights, lose the first 4-5; and then he begins to open up counters lazy jabs/cominations.

It's a mixture of pure power and boxing technique taught by one of the best!

[BigAlexSand]

This is what it is... Or should I say who it was to make what you see...

[mathed]

which 1 is it? is he just a powerful right hooker? or does he have perfect timing with the right hook?
HMMMMM

His left hook is pretty lethal as well.

It's both. The right hook might be the most devastating punch in boxing if done right. It's such a weird punch. Most southpaws don't even throw it that well. His is so short and compact. When he landed it against Quillen live you could hear the pop.

Really I hope he knocks his next opponent out so we can see a GGG fight because Lee is always in a good fight.
