Lemieux vs Quillin?

[Eastcoast]

Lemieux made a comment last week that he would be announcing his next opponent this week and that it would be his biggest opponent to date (currently Rubio). Still no announcement, but came across this RDS tv producer saying he's hearing maybe Lemieux vs Quillin?

@RickGlaser1 Plus heard rumors about Lemieux vs Quillin - an other Al Haymon fighter - No confirmation but could be realistic on Showtime

If this happens, I gotta go with Lemieux for the win. How would Quillin look then? To pass up the $1.4mill, give up his belt, and take a beating in the media and end up being KO'd by Lemieux?

Hope it happens. Would be funny to see Lemieux ko Quillin. But it could be Quillin who kos Lemieux. War Lemieux

Look at some of the ****** shots Konecny was landing on Quillin, now imagine that was Lemieux...

I wouldn't doubt that if this fight is being discussed, that one of the caveats holding it up is that Lemieux has to agree to sign with Haymon. Al's trading you out Pete!

Lol yeah ill be rooting for Lemieux, but Lemieux isnt all that. He takes shots too and hes been beaten by Joachim Alcine... Still I really hope Lemieux f#cks him up

My gut tells me that Quillin wouldn't take the fight, if he know he wouldn't win. He strikes me like that.

But....2015... that's still 2014

Anyway, they were supposed to fight if Stevenson/Hopkins fought... that went to moot and he dropped his belt for bigger things....
Still better than Konency though

Might be Daniel Jacobs or Jermall Charlo.

Daniel Jacobs is most likely the big name... a name they could've fought in the past.

Somehow, two guys, who've never headlined a main event on primetime, is huge.

yeah, I can't see Quillin vs Lemieux happening. it's too decent a fight. you know we aren't allowed any decent fights on showtime; it's against company policy.

Great fight if it actually happens, I like both fighters so I don't really care who wins.
