David Lemieux..will he become overrated if he fights GGG?

Just looked. The whole middleweight division is overrated.

Stopped by Rubio and then lost to Joachim Alcine so it is kinda hard for some to hype up David Lemieux again I'm sure. To his credit, he has improved since those defeat but of course if GGG beat him people will bring up those defeats and trying to downplay Lemieux

he's a huge puncher. he may hit harder with one shot than golovkin, particularly early on. stopped by rubio. beaten by alcine shortly after. solid wins over ndam and rosado. i don't think he's going to get overrated. he is what he is. he will do one thing, however: golovkin detractors ask "what's going to happen when golovkin fights a puncher?" i thought stevens was a good puncher, and golovkin took his gas. lemieux is a big, big hitter. there will be no questions about golovkin's ability to beat punchers if he can beat lemieux.

In b4 undue comparisons to cab drivers/janitors/dish washers... If he is less than Murray and Geale in the eyes of y'all, and y'all shat on them, then Lemieux about to get ragged on endlessly. I think Lemieux would be a solid win for GGG, I'd say surely an improvement over Geale and about on par with Murray. He is coming off of a win of N'Dam which is a good strong win for him, and is better than any wins on Murray's resume going into his fight with GGG. Murray beat a few other contenders but I also gave him credit because he gave strong opponents in Sturm and Martinez good fights. Lemieux isn't an A-level fighter sure, but he packs a punch so it'd be a good ass fight. Hopefully 2016 will see him circle around and smack up Cotto/Canelo for a belt and Andy Lee to unify all the MW belts. EDIT: Eh I'm feeling flip floppy on this. I'd say Lemieux is in the same general ball park in terms of quality of victory, as both Geale and Murray. Not particularly experienced but still has done well for himself, but definitely not like a big step up by any means. Murray was robbed that fight vs Sergio Martinez. That draw against Sturm is arguable as well.

Let's be real, you are just trying to make it seem like David is a worse opponent than he really is so you can try and drag down his resume even more because you don't like ggg for some reason. You're not slick Larry I watch all GGG fights,he is exciting. My sons like him too...if i dont like someone i will just say it

I will say he is atleast fighting a current world champion,not a bad fight at all

Lamieux is decent, liked his last two fights, especially the one against Rosado. This should be a quality win. IF GGG goes to fight Ward, he should fire his promoters, all the money is at the lower weights. He's the mandatory for Canelo Cotto, that's two of the best paydays for his career knocking on his door. You have to be stupid to even think of doing that.

If LeMule-GGG is made,I think we have to start asking; Is Golovkin ducking Spike O'Sullivan?

Hes overrated now but in the MW wasteland that GGG chooses to stay in there is nothing and he is at least a step up

I think most are aware that we want this fight to see GGG get clocked hard a few times to see how he deals with the power/aggression not the boxing IQ of Lemieux.

I don't mind the fight because he has a title and GGG needs all the belts he can get right now. Although holding all of the belts hasn't done much for Kovalev as of yet. But we'll see.

Lemeuiex is already overrated. He can punch, doubt he can take one. GGG folds him. If anything the fight will tell us more about GGGs relatively untested chin. See how he reacts when hit by a legit puncher.

overrated? I doubt it. He's nothing special but he brings a good dynamic with his power to the table. Fight should be a fun one

Lemieux is a good fighter, but at least he has a belt, a thing that neither Murray or Geale had. So is a unification fight, we like it or not. At least Lemieux has a puncher's chance, Monroe didn't even have that.

He has as much chance of beating GGG as you do.
