    Really enjoying this from lee cut most of his stupid habits out. Controlling the ring really well not been caught on the ropes and countering really well. He's even managed to tie Vera up twice WTF.

    Lee throwing too many single punches. Vera now putting the pressure on.

    Vera's got a cut now.

    Do my eyes deceive me or did Andy Lee, Andy Lee, just dip to the side and come up with a shot, and then evading his opponents attack?

    :clap: He's finally learning.

    As usual though I reserve judgement on any Andy Lee fight until it's over, because you never know when he's going to capitulate spontaneously.

    The body shots look and sound the part something I can't remember him doing before.

    His defence has tightened up but to be fair it couldn't of gotten any worse :lol:

    Coasting so far Lee hopefully his stamina has also improved.

    Lee still makes a lot of mistakes, but he is massively improved from three years ago. Some of his punch selection has been very impressive, particularly those snaking uppercuts that come in at an angle.

    He's still a sucker for eating shots in close - he hasn't got the reflexes to really be an elite fighter.

    A bit slack from Lee there his movement got very predictable and he started slowing down. Hopefully it was a breather for him and he will come out looking a bit fresher.

    Back into the swing of things. Good round from Lee landed some nice punches there a real good one two at the start then moved to the side and landed a hook. Lee's dealing well with a style he usually looks dog **** against.
