Andy Lee turns eyes towards Thomond title thriller

Andy Lee has targeted a summer bout at Thomond Park after Saturday night’s split decision draw against Peter Quillin in Brooklyn.

The WBO middleweight champion didn’t have his title on the line after Quillin’s dramatic failure to make weight on Friday but the pair still managed to put on a good show for more than 12,000 fight fans at the Barclays Center — home of the Brooklyn Nets NBA team.

While it may or may not be possible to bring Quillin to Ireland, both boxers are keen to set up a rematch after a 12-rounder which swung back and forth after Lee was knocked down twice early on.
