Yeah, Purnell Gates clearly broke his hand at the beginning of the 1st round on a counter right cross. That said, I thought he was doing a good impression of Dirrell vs King Arthur....
Lemieux is still a growing prospect and even though he is fighting plenty of stiffs, he is at least keeping active.
This fight didn't take much out of him, so my guess is we'll see him back in the ring in less than 2 months.
He was supposed to fight in February, but since he has an eliminator against Rubio, I think they will give him a few weeks to rest and then a good preparation for the Rubio fight. I heard they intend to have him fight Rubio on April 8. If everything goes as planned, that is.
