Easy fight to call for me. Lemiuex is a matured fighter. He picks his shots now and it shows. Dude is going to be hard to beat unless he's facing GGG or a master boxer who can take his shots.
I keep on going back and forth on this. Who is the favorite? I like Gabe Rosado and he looked very sharp against Vera in his last fight, but he has a habit of coming up short in big fights. What is different this time around?
Lemieux has more to lose in this fight. A loss, essentially, sets him back immensely and maybe even limits his future in boxing. If Gabe Rosado loses, well, he goes back to being a gatekeeper and being a good "opponent" for up-and-coming fighters
It's simple BG, Lemiux just doesn't have that will and discipline to train as a boxer. Rosado might not be the most talented fighter but he does put in the work. All Lemiux has really is a punchers chance and that is a slim chance that well only present itself in the first 2 or 3 rounds before Lemiux starts doubting himself and self destruct under Rosados pressure. He won't see the 7th round

I want to believe that analyze but I gotta believe that Lemieux's trainers have been working on just that, in the wake of his loses against Rubio and Alcine.
Some fights I don't have a personal preference who wins, but tonight, I'm really pulling for Gabe. I'm nervous for this fight. Lemieux has that explosive power and I'm hoping Rosada knows how to deal with it
