    I don't think either is true but the difference in class is pretty obvious.

    I know what you mean, English fans are so realistic when assessing their fighters abilities and they never over hype a fighter, ever.

    Great for Andy, he has a chance for sure. Sergio should win but Andy is a very live underdog in this one.

    Cmon Andy.

    Lee will need to sort that defence out big time for this. I don't see Martinez as a monster puncher but he has enough to hurt anyone with a single shot never mind the amount he could land on Lee.

    The Brits are known across the board as the most bias fans, just make a thread on any general boxing forum and you will find your answer about were the true bias lays.....

    I like Lee but this fight is all wrong for him IMO. He's being marking time against gatekeeper types and now he's going in against one of the top fighters in the world.

    But he's got his shot and best of luck to him.

    British fans are as bad if not worse for this. There was a thread about this subject before with numerous examples to back this up.
