Lee vs Murray? - Page 2

Lee's win over Fitzgerald was underrated. Lee's class and cunning shone through as Fitzgerald tried to take his head off and threw the kitchen sink at Lee. Fitzgerald did he utmost to win in the biggest fight of his career. Maybe Lee didn't do enough to dishearten Fitzgerald, but a bit more upper body strength and Lee is a match for most.

Murray vs Lee is close, but I think Lee takes it on points, making Murray miss too much.

Saturdays performance was so bad that on the Irish boxing thread Lee is being described as a British middleweight. Murray wide points

Just because he fought in America he's world class? Not a chance.

I think Murray beats him easily enough. Too strong for him, Lee is fragile.

Well, being a bonafide top 15 in his division would suggest someone who is a world class fighter.

He has some decent wins on his record and was doing well against Chavez Jr until the stoppage. Truth be told, Chavez jr was handed every advantage in that fight. I also dont trust that he is a clean fighter.

Murray vs Lee would be an interesting fight, I think Lee could stop him. Could go either way really, but im sticking with Lee by stoppage.

Murray wears him down.

Murray won't be able to walk through Lee like Chavez Jr did. I recall Sturm stunning Murray and Sturm IMO has average punching power.

Im stunned at that!

Im not sure I can believe that actually

Well he was.

He was comfortable for 5 and a half rounds.

PED head Chavez Jr kept coming though.

Would rather see Macklin/Murray, seems to be abit of spite between the pair which is always good to see.

No mate,

He was not comfortable from the middle of the 1st round, Chavez slowly broke him, I'm not condoning PED's or Jr, clearly there is doubt, but at no point of that fight did I ever expect Andy Lee to see the final bell, he got bullied
