    I would much rather watch Lee. I have only seen Dzinzurik one time before and he didnt really look too exciting.

    Lee should be the better fight.

    Dzinziruk is a quality fighter. I can see Martinez-Dzinziruk being a competitive fight, while I think Martinez-Lee would essentially result in a slaughter.

    dzinziruk is a good boxer with a excellent jab, he will not make it a easy night for martinez.

    He's not exciting but he's good. The dude's jab is as pretty of a jab as you will see, it's enough to give anyone around his weight problems. I still think Martinez beats him, but he'd be a bigger challenge for Martinez than Lee would be.

    Seen Lee a few times and didn't really see much in him. HBO has to see something in this Dzin kid to reject the bigger name in Lee.

    Now this is a much better match up. Dzindurik is a solid fighter who will give Martinez a decent fight. Andy Lee isn't very good and Martinez would have absolutely ran right through him. Great news that HBO wants no part of a Martinez-Lee mismatch but is interested in a nice fight like Martinez-Dzindiruk, I just hope it gets made.

    Dzinziruk is a much better choice. What weight would they fight at?
    Martinez going down would get more credit but i doubt Dzinziruk would give up an opportunity to capture the Middleweight crown.

    this will happen at 154 right? martinez does have a sick reach advantage over dzinziruk despite being a few inches shorter.
