    I'm sure you don't give Hopkins stick for doing the same thing.

    We all know why Gay_Sayer. Because Hopkins has the same skin colour as you :tired:tired

    If Lee wasn't typically such a slow starter, I'd like his chances far more on this one. The later Andy takes it, the more I imagine he'll improve as the bout goes. So I think it will really depend on how far behind Andy falls early on, assuming neither man stops the other early.

    I think it's close to a pick'em fight, but Andy is typically a terribly slow starter, and I don't think that bodes well against Jacobs.

    yes but lee's power can overcome those slow starts especially against a guy with Jacobs's chin.

    Yes, no doubt! Which is why I think Andy's chances improve as the fight goes.

    But I'm inclined to believe that Jacobs being a faster starter, and a Lee a slow starter, that it's more likely to result in Jacobs getting to Lee's chin first.

    yeah its a true toss up 50/50 fight with both guys carrying bombs and less than iron chins.

    Andy has had three rought starts in recent memory: Quilling, Saunders and Jackson. He caught both Quillin and Jackson with a counter and dropped them(Jackson went for a long nap) and he came back strong vs Saunders.
    Funny how Jacobs went ***** to the wall vs Mora, almost got KO´d and then does the same **** vs Quillin :lol: Andy Lee could play possum and KTFO him...

    (Lee really deserves a rematch with BJS)

    If Lee can get clipped by slow-as.s Chavez Jr then Jacobs has a real shot here.

    Jacobs by resounding KO.

    Playing the race card is the sure tale sign of someone who has no coherent argument.

    Congratulations, Einstein...
