Looks like Lee could be off the Macklin-Martinez bill and fighting Sturm on April 28 in Germany!

Politics and religion dont mix mate. The fact is, someone born in the state of northern ireland is an Irishman. They may well consider themselves British in addition by thats purely political.reggaereggae wrote:Right - but not a Brit as 'Roars like me' implies......liamlion wrote:Its all the same mate.

I think even if he was Northern Irish, he could not be considered 'British'???? I'm not sure, I find the whole Union thing confusing
hmmmm interesting, I didn't know that. Regardless Lee has a bit of a chance but I reckon Spurm on pointsG0mez wrote:Andy Lee was born in London and moved back to Ireland when he was what, 10 ? Repton lad.

Correct. Northern Irishmen are British but they are predominantly Irishmen i would think. I think he was born in East London maybe? But Irish parents.liamlion wrote:Politics and religion dont mix mate. The fact is, someone born in the state of northern ireland is an Irishman.

Not sure KG. Agreed he landed some really good clean shots over both fighters esp Macklin. But Lee looks pretty tough may be a distance fight.King Geedorah wrote:Sturm will score a stoppage. He is on the slide but landed accurately against Macklin and Murray, both of whom are tougher than Lee IMO. RSF 8-12 if Sturm's got anything left.
i think after Sturms last 2 fights the robbery card will be a bit worn out.King Geedorah wrote:He had both going late on in the 12th, Lee's more vulnerable in my view and will be a sucker for the right hand. I'd prefer a stoppage either way as Sturm could win it clearly by 8-4 and people will still cry robbery.ShadrachSimmo wrote:Not sure KG.
