    Who do people think wins this?
    Anybody seen much of Korobov as a pro?
    BJS apparently gets the winner, so it's interesting...

    There's no Korobov vs. Edwards to muscle you with.

    Korobov will walk straight through Lee. Early rounds KO

    I guess it would be somewhat competitive in the first couple of rounds up until Koro hurts Lee and puts him away. And then he has a very beatable #1 contender next, in wich he will be the clear favorite in my book.

    Really glad for Matty that he gets the title like this after being screwed out of a massive payday.

    Lee has a granite chin. Can't see Korobov putting him away. I can see him beating him tho.

    Watch the John Jackson fight again, especially the knockdown. See how he quickly he recovers.

    Can't see Lee winning this, although I'll be hoping he does... Korobov hasn't replicated his amateur form since turning pro, but he'll have to much for Lee.

    Lee's a decent fighter, but I just don't see anything remotely spectacular behind him. I've seen him fight live a few times, most recently at Froch v Groves 1 and I wasn't blown away then.

    He wasn't doing to well against John Jackson in his last fight either, but credit where it's due he landed a superb shot to end that fight.

    I'd love for him to win and set up a fight with BJS.

    Rooting for Lee, but think he loses on points. Korobov is tough and a very smart boxer too.
    Looking forward to this and the subsequent match against BJS

    Billy Joe will fight for the title next if Korobov wins, but if Andy wins BJS could have to wait, Len :good
