Comments Thread For: David Lemieux Stops Fernando Guerrero In Three Rounds

[johnm is...]

Of course, but it was the young Lemieux - 21 years old - relying solely on power. If you recall, he brutally mauled Rubio for 5 rounds until he ran out of gas in the 7th. Hagler also lost in his younger days as Martinez against Marguarito. Lemieux is now trained to fight 12 hard rounds and to pace himself intelligently. He understands now that not ALL fighters put in front of him will go to sleep as soon as he lands a bomb on them. Lemieux would fight Rubio very differently today than when they met 3 years ago. Rubio, who had infinitely more experience than Lemieux back then, knew that he only had to sustain the fury of Lemieux early on in the fight with the hope that he would get exhausted... and that's exactly what happened. Lemieux is a much improved and matured animal now at 25. Also, he has been sparring on a regular basis with world class fighter such Jean Pascal, Martinez, etc... I personally would give NO chance whatsoever to Quillin to defeat Lemieux...

Hi, David.

Rubio wasn't as bad as the Alcine loss

Brutally mauled Rubio?? If that would have been the case, Rubio would have been hurt but he wasn´t. Rubio just resisted a bit and then... ****. Rubio has an insane KO percentage.
Good win for Lemieux though, I hope Guerrero retires.

Nice TKO victory for Lemieux.
