    Like others have said, winner's a possible GGG opponent. It's a good move to air them and hype them up. Better hope Lee wins.

        But since he's a potential giggi opponent he's one of the greatest MW right now
        Jr.'s chin is up there with Hagler's. It's impossible to knock that guy out at 160. Lee struggles often during fights, but that right hand seems to be as devastating as ever.

          Smart move by HBO, they should also show Liam Smith's fight on the undercard since Canelo said his body isn't ready for 160lbs.

            Chavez has never looked that good his whole career, not to mention he walked through Lee's left cross like it was nothing.

            And I have never seen anyone take Lee's cross like that.
            People always like to discredit Lee with the Chavez loss, but completely leave out he was well over 180lbs in the ring vs Andy and hadn't taken a drug test because they were in Texas. Even then, Andy was stopped on his feet by Lawrence Cole after Andy had been completely outboxing Chavez and nailing him with the same shots that stopped Korobov and dropped Quillin.

              like the respect these two have shown each other in the buildup to this fight. I think it'd be great if HBO picks it up. Andy Lee <3

                  Chavez skipped a drug test post fight and took off right away . He was 184 pounds vs lee. Wouldnt be surprised if they lied about his weight on the scale.. its happened before. remember boxing is corrupt.


                  Lee is a very solid fighter. Emanuel steward loved him . Saunders is very solid as well. This should be a great fight. Im watching it

                    That cool and not a great fight but it makes sense for them to pick it up.

                      They say he was 190 and fully roided out. And the ring was super soft, total shady b.s.
