Lee renews rivalry with O’Kane in middleweight final

ANDY LEE will be the star attraction again when he defends his middleweight title at the finals of the national championships in the National Stadium tonight.

The Limerick southpaw was having only his third contest since the Olympic Games in Athens when he outpointed Hugh Joyce from Athy in the semi-finals a week ago and admitted afterwards that ne needed the competition.

“You can have the best of spars, but you need the rounds,” he said.
