Is Lemieux the "Challenger" Golovkin was waiting for?

Alcine ain't anything and Rubio is years past his best. Come off it now. GGG is far superior and his opponents in grade, macklin and Murray are far superior to lem. Rubio fought him 4 years ago. That was before his Chavez Jr shot, so it was a while ago. Alcine is crafty. Problem was Lemeiux's immaturity. As a prospect he touched guys and poof they were gone. He went the "attrition" route. He would try extra hard to knock guy out instead of taking his time.

so lemieux is still given less than a 10-1 chance haha Aha nice bump.

Lemieux is a bum. Every notable guy he has beaten, Quillin-Korobov had already beaten first. On top of that Lemieux has been punched out by Rubio and outboxed by Alcine. Lemieux is a bum, but at least he's not a coward like Ducklovkin. So he is not a coward for fighting a coward? :lol1:

lemieux has a puncher's chance so there's that. though he is still a weak chinned fighter that moves forward, a feast for GGG.

Prior to Rosado, think I only ever saw Lemieux get taken into deep waters and drowned by Rubio. But that looked to me like a classic case of too ****y plus too much too fast equals crash and burn. Has Lemieux matured? Can he box intelligently all the rounds? Has he developed the stamina to do what he needs to do immediately at any given moment all the way til the end of rounds 12? Because he looks to me as if he has a speed advantage over Golovkin and if he could make that the dominant factor for all of the 12 rounds, maybe be could scrape up a decision. But if he gets tired or impatient or makes mistakes or succumbs to passion at any time, Gennady catches and makes short work of him. tl;dr? Lemieux is goodboy.

After comparing Lemiuex and GGG's performances against Rosado. It's clear that Lemiuex is the harder puncher. Lemiuex was able to drop and rock Rosado, where Golovkin couldn't. And it was just an overall more dramatic victory for Lemiuex. In terms of styles, Lemiuex would be favored also. Golovkin has trouble with people who constantly attack him. And we all know how relentless Lemiuex is when he's in that ring. Rosado was on survival mode from the start , he did try and win vs Lem which opened him up to more bombs , also GGG had no trouble with anyone so far , so not sure where are you making this s***t up. i hope the fight gets made and you get your dream odds (because GGG going to be 7-1 favored) and you bet heavy on lem (which i know you wont , because you are just trying to bash ggg , and dont really believe lem is the fav)

This would be an interesting bout... Lemieux is a dangerous fighter right now...confident, strong, & aggressive I believe he would pose a legitimate threat to Golovkin...He would probably be the most complete opponent GGG has faced to date & thats including Martin Murray... That being said...I would favor Golovkin to beat Lemieux if they were to meet in the near future...With David's style, durability will most certainly become an issue & he has shown past vulnerabilities in that area...

So, is GGG, against such a raw puncher. Lemieux has faced World level opposition in Rosado and Guerrero. By world level I don't mean those two are world class, but guys who are in the mix sort of thing. For a prospect Lemeiux is tested. Rubio's pathetic showing doesn't make him a bum and losing to him as a prospect isn't all so bad. Alcine is a former World Champion. Alcine ain't anything and Rubio is years past his best. Come off it now. GGG is far superior and his opponents in grade, macklin and Murray are far superior to lem.

Doesn't matter if you're a puncher. You need to be refined. The simple fact that Lemieux doesn't have much of a jab is already a bad start against someone like Golovkin.

Yeah, and what if that is all he needed? http://i57.tinypic.com/35m13xh.gif

GBP is gonna save Lemieux for Canelo. No way he fights GGG.

The poor mans Mike Tyson is getting Douglas'd

Lemeuix is untested, hasn't he already been stopped? Lost twice to less than mediocre opponents? LOL at this stage Cotto would give GGG a better challenge. So, is GGG, against such a raw puncher.

Their professional stats and physical attributes are fascinating/parallel, diverging in Lemieux's defeat by KO.Despite David Lemieux's progress in the middleweight division and enhanced technical grasp he will only come close within the first 4rounds (and nothing more) -- his style and strength have advanced his career to a prominent position to be even considered as a challenger to the thrown yet in a ridiculous twist of irony will lead to his destruction. Yeah, and what if that is all he needed?

Waiting to knockout!

Nah, he's too chinny. Good fighter with great power, but he can't handle what Golovkin would fire back at him. Golovkin stops him.

I wanna see Lamieux against the winner of Quillin - Lee. If he wins, then against GGG. In other case people gonna say GGG is fighting another overhyped bum

Hell no. He'd get destroyed. I don't think anyone at 160 besides potentially Alvarez could test Golovkin. And even then it's not exactly a great chance. Actually, add Lara to that list as well.
