    I favor BJS to outbox Lee. If Lee is to win, I believe he will need a KO or multiple knockdowns. I believe that BJS posses a strong enough chin/will to survive Lee and will win by UD. Lee has showed that he is an above average MW w/ elite power, but if he can't get the KO he won't beat the top guys. And I do consider Saunders one of the top guys, I rate him #4 at MW.

    While I do think Lee will prob. need a knockout to win (and in my opinion I also think he'l get it late) I've been starting to wonder if his boxing ability is being underestimated recently due to his last couple of fights, he is 6ft2 and if comes in with a gameplan to make use of his jab he could keep BJS at bay and could end up surprising us

    Lee wins easily,bjs got split open sparing,if he can't keep his sparing partner at bay he has no chance against a man of Lees power,also bjs has stamina issues,the last thing you want is stamina issues against Andy,he also got little power himself so will be hoping to hear the final bell but i dont think he will last that long,as for top 4 m/w,not a hope,wouldn't make my top 10.

    He has stamina issues with guys who brings constant pressure...... which Andy doesn't bring much of.

    Theres levels to this.
    Andy Lee isnt some crude swinger like Eubank.

    Lee has been in with the best, and has either always acquited himsefl well.

    BJS is stepping into a whole other level when he fights Lee.
    Whereas Lee has seen it all before.

    When BJS has done anything on the level of Lee, we can agree...

    Yes, Lee got beaten by a 180+ lbs Chavez?

    Quillin is about 2-3 levels above anything BJS has fought.

    Lee got beaten early in his career by Vera and then completely dominated him in the rematch.

    How about BJS s****ing past Ryder?
    Nick Blackwell gave him all he could handle too.

    BJS isnt messing around in the little leagues anymore. Hes facing an actual world class fighter.....And no, a crude Eubank doesnt fit in that category
