WBC middleweight champion Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. recovered from a slow start he blamed on leg cramps and stopped Andy Lee at 2:21 of the seventh round Saturday night to retain his belt at the Sun Bowl in El Paso. Chavez (46-0-1, 32 KOs) began tentatively, not even throwing his first punch until 75 seconds had elapsed in the first round, and was initially outboxed by Lee (28-2), a much taller challenger than Chavez had previously faced. But as the next two rounds passed, the Mexican champion began to stalk Lee, blasting him with right-cross counterpunches. [Click Here To Read More]

Lee didn't say a word about his power. Said he was big and strong, but nothing about his power. Misleading headline.

Power is a a very broad statement.
But we can concur he did meant it that way about his punching power too, after watching his head move like a piņata

JR too slow for Martinez. He is starting to remind me of margarito. Always pressing. Good chin. But slow. Easy work for Martinez.
