Look out for this lad in the coming years. He impressed me as an amteur but my word he has come on leaps and bounds since turning professional.

Have a look at his fight from the other night
watch


His name is Andy Lee and is fighting out of the states. From Limerick in Ireland Fought 8 5 by KO
 
Yeah Baz, why didn't you link to a video of his entire career to date? Just not putting in the effort...
 
You heard his name here first.

Managed by the great Manny Stewart and Manny seldom manages boxers

Manny Stewart. Egotistical trainer. He has let many fighters down as all he is interested in is the big time.

Its the arseholes he has had to deal with along the way.
 
Amir Khan's the one to watch. Not exactly unheard of I know, but he's gonna be huge

Good fighter - hope his minders keeps head on the shoulder

He's got the skills of Naseem Hamed, without the attitude

HAmed was a better fighter at his age.

Leaving Brendan Ingle and installing his family as his management wrecked Hamed. You can see the same happening with Khan. Frank Warren will not be able for him.

Just wanted to know as you seem to think he's great. I have met and dealt with him and he's a shyster and thats just not my view. Ask any in the boxing world. He's a pretty good trainer and thats where he should stay.

Never heard that. What is your history with him.

Did you see Duddy fight the other night. Another good show. 2 very good Irish boxes on the go at present Duddy & Dunne - another 2 years Lee will be up there
 
Have had a long association with Boxing from way back with Terry Downes. Alan Minter was a good friend as were several other up and coming boxers. When I moved to the States was asked to help some up and coming British boxers in finding accomodation and training facilities. Used to go to all the big fight nights in Vegas.
