Comments Thread For: David Lemieux Could Return on July 29 in Quebec City

[richardt]

Rubio had 43 KO's against club fighters/journeyman, NOT top fighters. In fact, Rubio has NEVER beaten a top fighter, let alone KO'd one! Top fighters can dish it out and take it, Lemiuex can only dish it out. He's like a powerful robot with an achilies heel, a machine with one screw and when that screw fell out.....

[richardt]

Lemiuex was FAR from exhausted before he was nailed with the right to the far right side of his head. In Fact, the round before that AND that round he was still throwing with bad intent. I've seen those last 2 rounds 5 times. He forgot a PLAN B "What do I do if the guy is still there after 3 rounds?" Oops.

Good that he's not losing his ranking just coz of one bad fight where he made a mistake, can happen to anyone esp someone so green.

[richardt]

Not being able to take punishment is not exactly a mistake, it is a weakness. Rubio is no defensive wizard or huge puncher either. Lemieux lost to a guy who has ZERO KO's against top fighters and ZERO wins against top fighters.

Lemieux's 22 and he'll learn from that loss. He was way up on points. He was just overconfident and got caught. Down the line he'll have a better carreer than Rubio... and will not be the first champ to have lose against a lesser opponent.

[richardt]

It is arrogant to say he will even have as good a career as Rubio, let alone a better one. Too damn many people are ***ing WINED, DINED, and SEDUCED by an ubeaten or high KO record and just like a cheap date, they are dumped. Lemieux is a pretender with a built up record, simple as that.

[richardt]

I said that BEFORE he faced Rubio he built his record up against no-hopers! Someone would have to be new to boxing, immature, gullible, ignorant, or a mental midget to be seduced by a guy who bowls over setups. People have a ***ing ****** when the see a zero on the end of a record!!!!!
