    100% yes. The guy looks good early but seems to fade and doesn't take damage well. He never seems to have sturdy legs and his head is always straight up in the air...

    You forgot to add Canelo to the list. Oh and might as well add Pacquiao and Mayweather if you're including Froch.

    20lbs heavier? Last I checked, Andy lee didn't show up weighing only 160lbs on fight night.

    Jr outweighed him by 4 or 5lbs.

    Lee just doesn't seem that durable. He might be able to win boxing matches but skilled fighters are going to be his undoing.

    No one knows what each man actually weighed during the fight, (including you) but Jr. sure LOOKED a lot heavier.

    Not so much a hype job, after the Vera fight most reasonable people knew he wasnt much.The guy does not handle pressure fighters well...at least not good ones.Why else do you think he was ok'ed as an opponent for Chavez jr?

    Thanks. Some people on this forum don't seem to understand the difference between a boxing match and a fight.

    Andy Lee played to Chavez Strengths that is why he lost, he is a little overrated though

    lol, your point? He looked good against journeyman McEwan early, got ****ing stomped during the middle rounds and put McEwan away when he had gassed. If you think Lee is a serious contender at MW...:patsch

    Lee is a B- level fighter.
