Think the fight is on saturday.
Vacant Irish Super Middle title on the line this friday in the National Stadium. Defensive hard hitting unbeaten Andy Lee takes on Tough Technical Jason Mckay who's only defeat came as a controversial one after he knocked down Paul Buchanan it never got counted on the scorecards.
Andy Lee moves up from Middleweight while Jason Mckay moved down from Light Heavy. Should be a good one. Don't know if rte are showing it.
Think the fight is on saturday.
i was just wondering where he had gone to on saturday and did a google on him. they seem to be expecting big things from him in america. check out his last one under duddy i think, lovely punch;

check out the left upper v salway too.
He seems to have a great upper cut both left and right. he hasn't really been tested yet though.

Yeah sorry its on Saturday
Was half thinking of going down on Saturday and getting myself a gallery ticket. Lee is the buisness as far as I'm concerned, good fighter, intelligent when on the attack and more importantly (are you listening Dunne?) he is able to defend himself and counter punch
ya great counter puncher, and letting someone show and then bang - well from the little ive seen of him.

Most of his fights are on youtube. Lee is the best chance we have of a genuine world champion

I seen an advertisement for it last night on rte 2 its on, everybody is talkin about Lee, Mckay is no pushover he has shown he is as technical as Lee not as defensive but well able to take a hit and can be exciting to watch. He has also beaten Duddy in amateur I know amateur is completely different from Pro.
Lee is quite tall for a middleweight, and has a great reach. Defensively he's sound, and is becoming more confident in his own ability to put guys away.
He's certainly got talent. Whether it can extend to true world class is another thing, but I truly hope so.
Ya, ive seen them, but there isn't much of it, only the best bits, and ye cant really make out how good a fighter is with the short clips.Most of his fights are on youtube. Lee is the best chance we have of a genuine world champion
Btw, I think you are right, I hope he doesnt move up to cruiserweight or anything like that when he gets older though. A fight in a couple of years or so time against kessler or even bute would be good to see.

I have seen them both fight amateur and Pro, I think Lee is a great prospect but he is boring to technically defensive(im just saying his style usually isn't great to watch) but also can give us some KO's(which are good to watch) and he only has one inch over Mckay also Mckay should be heavier coming down from Light Heavy I can see this maybe goin the distance in the favour of the smarter boxer Lee.
Andy Lee 23 6'2 record 13(10)/0/0
Jason Mckay 30 6'1 record 18(5)/1/0
From Box Rec which isn't always reliable.
btw boxrec wont recognise Duddy as Irish sliced pan.

Well what's the verdict?
Impressive I though.
Put on a bit more of a show. Wasn't impressed that they said he had no heart anyway. I think I actually walked past Lee on the street the other day.
A bit worrying that he got cut above the eye. Occupational hazard I suppose. Didn't seem to bleed too much anyway.
Tallaght Stadium Regular
Yeah hopefully he doesn't get the Bernard Dunne bandwagon behind him just yet (i can imagine the limerick leader on monday), seems to be heading in the right direction but defo needs another couple of years. Should be great if they can get a fight for him here in Limerick. Thomond Park maybe?
Everyone else reckon himself and Duddy will be kept apart for a while like the lads on rte were saying?
Yeah I was very impressed by Lee he was entertaining, he forced Mckay to come out of his shell and open up and you could see Mckay was feeling every punch, I thought Mckay had him rattled in the 4th the round after Lee's eye cut but Lee bounced back at the end of it the only round I would have scored to Mckay. I thought Mckay would have kept goin for the pride to finish.
he seemed to be doing a bit of showboating, his defence is quite poor, the old martial art of turning your body sideways.....keeps his hands down by his side too often to be honest and is too direct. The one good thing going for him is his reach.
he is definitely a couple of years short of a title shot. though someone said to me on saturday that he was going to be fighting pavlik next year. I cant believe that to be honest. I think in the longer run he would be better staying in super-middleweight.
