Comments Thread For: DiBella Hoping for Jacobs-Lee Around St. Patrick’s Day

I like how everyone is acting like it's some foregone conclusion that Lee defeats Saunders.

Saunders is a better boxer and doesn't the wear and tear on his body that Lee has. If Lee doesn't stop him, I cant' see him winning the fight.

He didn't even blow through Caleb Truax in 11 rounds. Andy Lee isn't a Jarrod Fletcher who can't punch and has a bad chin. Jacobs was lucky vs Mora that the fight wasn't ruled a NC, otherwise that fight might have shown some flaws with Danny.

Danny did to Peter what he did to Lorenzo, he swings mad. Against Lee that'll get him killed. Lee is a bad match-up for Jacobs mark my words. Unfortunately I don't think Andy will win vs Saunders.

Andy Lee's chin is trash. He was KO'd by Brian freaking Vera, Chavez Jr, dropped by Jackson several times and was on his way to being stopped again before the fluke KO, was getting whooped and completely shutout by Korobov before the other fluke and has been hurt several times by low tier'd fighters.

Why does Lee get so much credit in your book?

Unlike Andy Lee, Truax has never even been down in his career and still didn't go down against Jacobs. I've lost count how many times Lee has been down.

All they will say is ggg eats both of them...even tho jacobs fighting the better fighters

Of course.

Fight could still happen win or lose. Jacobs can't fight for the WBO belt anyway as long as he holds the regular title

No, I think he'll become "Unified" Champ, 4 champs at MW including a new Regular. I think I've seen it before, but can't remember the instance.

Saunders also has never been in serious trouble or fought World level opponents that cause you that wear and tear. Lee has pulled himself out of the quick sand on numerous occasions. Lee can lose every second of every round, beaten to the punch, but the late KO is always there, Billy however, does not.

for me its more "wishful thinking" than anything else. Saunders has made it quite clear that if he wins he has no interest in fighting anyone with a pulse, which would put the kibosh on any unifications for at least the next year or so.

So I am hoping against hope that Lee gets the win.......

Well recently Quigg was almost stripped until WBA "stripped" rigo and Tomoki had to vacate because WBO didn't recognize the WBA regular of McDonell

Both happened this year

So all of a sudden they're not interested in this WBA Super title of GGG's ummm why is that lol.

If he drops his mandatory for the WBA I will have been absolutely wrong about him, I hope he doesn't seek the easy route after beating Quillin.

I'm generally not a conspiracy theory type, but this sounds like what Haymon wants. This fight makes absolutely no sense for Andy, and would be an absolutely horrible move by his promoter. Should he beat Saunders he is all but locked in for a fight with GGG or possibly Canelo. Depending on how their situation plays out. Lee has fought Korobov, Quillen and now BJS in his last three fights. Why the **** would he fight Jacobs with two potential huge paydays looming? The guy could fight a soft touch in Ireland waiting for those fights and probably make close to the same amount of money as fighting Jacobs.

Given Andy's own words. I'll be absolutely floored if this fight happens. There is nothing in it for Andy.

GG is not a payday look at his opponent's pay. Lemiux had to go to ppv just to make 1.5
Jacobs and quillin got 1.5 each on Showtime
