Patience the key for Lee

A confident Andy Lee insisted yesterday he will be patient during tonight’s return to the ring in New York against Detroit’s Darryl Cunningham.

The Limerick middleweight weighed in at 161 lbs, 1lb lighter than his opponent, ahead of the 10-round bout at BB King Blues Club in Midtown Manhattan.

The Irish Examiner columnist was only added to Lou DiBella’s Broadway Boxing card last week but Lee insisted the late change of plan didn’t deter him.
