    Didn't see it, worse performance than Lee vs. Fitz?

    Lee needs to show more improvement if he is to be taken serious at world level:deal

    Not too bad for Andy,Horta was very defensive in the early rounds and thats where Andy won the fight,great for Andy to get a good 8 rounds under him but will have to improve if he is going to get another crack at a title,also wondering is 154 a step too far.

    What is it going to take to convince some people - including Andy himself - that it is time to face facts.
    He is not going to be a force at world level at either weight (160 or the looney-tune adventure at 154). He just isnt.

    How about 168? :think

    (you know, the direction it might actually make sense for him to move in...who knows? Chin & Power could improve...stamina, really the sky's the limit, can't hurt to give it a whack...and worst case, the plan bombs, although no less than a skeletal jaunt at 154 would...)

    If he were to even carry up - let alone increase - his power & durability I could see him succeeding in carefully picked styles match-ups with some ranked contenders at super middle. Periban, maybe? Dirrell the Younger?

    As for Lee lets see how he is in his next fight. Time will tell if the drop down suits him or not he has said he will take a fight at either weight class. I llike Andy. I think Andy could well fight for a World title in the future. Think Booth will know after this fight if it is worth Andys to try and make this weight or not. Maybe Andy under estimated his opponent. Just think Andy needs a a bigger fight a 50-50 maybe with Macklin or Murray something to get him going sooner rather than later.

    I always taught a move to super middle would suit him aswel , another reason why move to light middle was big surprise !!

    Yeh 168 would surely have been better. He doesnt look physically right. Steven Ormonde on the other hand looks in terrfic shape and somewhat of a beast right now.
    One other thing that Struck me about Lee, especially at 154 - why not box tall? He was crouching too low I thought and nullifying one of his own natural advantages. Did anyone notice this?
