    Now maybe O'Sullivan can fight Rosado like he should be instead.

      Yeah you might be right I might be living in the past, I always watch highlight reel comeback knockout wins for Lee but they are all from 2015 and before haha.

        Andy Lee with katie taylor as a co-feature will probably bring in a good irish crowd.

        Still a relatively lame and meaningless main event. Would prefer Andrade, Derevyanchenko or Murata.
        Andrade is his good friend, Derevyanchenko is PBC/Showtime, and Jacobs is now with HBO. Murata is with Top Rank/ESPN. Jacobs had to know all this before he went with Hearn/HBO. I think Jacobs put all his faith in Hearn/HBO getting him Canelo or GGG!

                Thought Lee was basically retired..

                I'm not even sure Lee at this point is any better then Spike..

                  A lot of people wrote Andy Lee off after the Chavez loss and said he was washed up. He dropped down to 154 and viciously KOd John Jackson worse than Charlo did and low and behold he won the middleweight belt from Korobov who obliterated Danny Jacobs in the amateurs. Lee had good scrap withs with Quillin and BJ Saunders too. This is a real fight for Jacobs.

                    Andrade is doing **** all. So it Jacobs so why have two of the best middleweights in the world fight each other?
                    How gullible do you have to be to still believe that Andrade will get in the ring with anyone that has a pulse?
