Andy Lee predicts Katie Taylor could make it look 'really easy' against Delfine Persoon this weekend, but warned that she must not get 'suckered into a fight'.
The undisputed lightweight champion defends her belts against Persoon in a highly anticipated rematch at Eddie Hearn's Matchroom Fight Camp this weekend.
Taylor defeated the Belgian in controversial circumstances at Madison Square Garden last year in a fight many people felt Persoon should have won.
Looking ahead to Saturday's rematch, Lee told RTE 2fm's Game On: "I can see it going two ways.
"More than likely, you'll see Katie righting the wrongs of what happened in New York a couple of years ago and boxing a smart fight, not getting involved in a trade off, making it look really easy, and winning it clearly by maybe seven rounds to three.
"Or else... you know Katie is her own worst enemy at times. If she gets hit she almost gets offended and she wants to retaliate. Then she might get suckered into a fight, which I hope she doesn't, because Persoon is very tough, very strong and loves to brawl.
"If Katie can box smart, keep her cool, doesn't get brought down to Persoon's level, she'll win quite clearly, I think. That's what I hope to see."
Speaking ahead of the bout, Taylor has told Persoon to 'learn how to box'.
The Bray boxer said: "She needs to learn how to box. That's probably why she lost in the Olympic qualifier against an unranked amateur fighter.
"She's the type who would say Floyd Mayweather runs as well, but he's the best boxer of his generation.
"It's called the sweet science."
