Andy Lee v Billy Joe Saunders. WBO Middleweight title. Sept 19th

Yea the uk proved to have no mandibles. True

Youtube proves it. Glass mandibles and only uk shows up mam

 

Not sure how I missed it until now, but this thread

More talk about music, Football and chins than the thread topic!, BTW you guys have some pretty poor taste in music and Footy teams! :yep

No mention of Bobby Pires? For about a season and a half for ****nal he was unreal but then faded quickly into the shadow of Henry and Bergkamp. Though who remembers Geargi Kinkladze? What a player he was for about 5 minutes!

Also Owen was a world class finisher but too reliant on his pace, once the injuries took that from him he was never going to be the same player. He was also a lucky ****er in his prime, never known a player to so regularly play an accidental 1-2 off the defenders shins and end up clean through. Unbelievable!

Oh, this is a boxing forum? Then I'm going to say Lee on points, possibly with a whiff of controversy.

 

:good:rofl

 

I live and breathe ars3nal fc. Bobby pires was a great player, he ran like a duck, but brilliant technique, was a vital part in the invincible season. Always chipped in with 10-15 premiership goals and I do mean chip, he made schmeichel look a right twonk with a beautiful chip, Very class.


But this is a boxing forum so I won't continue with football.


Saunders wins barring he doesn't get lured in by something big. Is wierd to give a more established experienced world level fighter in lee a Punchers chance against a fighter who hasn't fought for a title yet. I think Saunders is too quick and busy, slick. And lee is no pressure fighter so I can't see him walking Saunders down like eubank tried.

 

Wasn't really impressed with Lee against Quillin. He's average, I'll take BJS on points.

 

People are under-rating Lee's chin on here. Prior to the knockdown by Jackson, which was a flash knockdown in which Lee wasn't hurt, he had never been down - and Quillin can PUNCH, so no shame in those KD's.

BJS lacks power, so no major threat there, and also gasses in the later rounds - at which point Lee will be ratcheting up the pressure, and his experience will really show.

Andy is the bigger, stronger and more powerful man. BJS is slick, but in the later rounds will really struggle to keep Andy from taking the KO. I see it being a good fight, but a relatively comfortable victory for Andy Lee. Even if BJS can hurt Lee, which I see as unlikely, Lee has one of the biggest hearts in the game, as well as otherworldly powers of recovery - and in front of his home stadium, no one is gonna break his already indomitable heart.

 

This is what a true striker does :nod

 

Only on here can I read a thread about an upcoming fight and still 6 pages in its only talk about BJ's, George Michael and Canada... Well I guess I could have just said George Michael cause the other 2 are the same thing.

Well done guys!

Btw - Lee wins this fight, clips him mid rounds.
