Cool aid must be good you do realize Rubio ko'd Lemieux then he lost to alcine built him up with 7 bums now from last night he is hagler? Dre for all the reasons you listed pacing countering letting Lemieux walk into bombs they are the reason ggg will have a easy time super fight please stop

you are prob right, but the sad thing about all this is that still lemieux might be GGG´s toughest opposition to date...

Sorry dude, GGG is slow and gets hit, listen man, David is aggressive, SHORTER and ducks down and throws harder bombs. GGG hasn't fought a guy like that who comes at you, GGG is not a slickster like Rosado, Rosado can roll shots its the only reason he was able to last so long against David.

I think GGG vs David is the best fight out right now and they need to build it up on hbo and do a press tour if the fight delivers in the first fight the next one the rematch will be a ppv.

Lemieux's not so different from Curtis Stevens. Lemeiux's better at setting up his shots and discovered how to work off a jab (which is still pretty weak), but he's also less durable than Curtis. Golovkin's footwork, chin, and subtle blocking will give him plenty of opportunity to land a killer counter on David.

Rubio was getting pounded throughout the fight punished until he caught david with that shot after david spent his load. This is obviously an improved version of lemieux than the version who lost to rubio. He was blasting rosado with bombs last night throughout the fight and did not appear to be winded whatsoever he also took very little punishment which was obvious by the way he looked after the fight. And when he did get hit he took it really well. You cant compare this version of lemieux with the version who lost to rubio. He still needs some refining in terms of defense and few other areas but when he is refined he will be a real threat to ggg. One more thing learn to speak fluent english before you try to argue your point in an english boxing forum. It was hard for me to interpret what you said.

People say Lemieux lost to Rubio because he punched himself out, but not really. Lemieux (with his short arms) rushed in on Rubio and got clipped with a short hook, then punched himself out because he was hurt & that's how he was trying to survive.

I don't want to see Golovkin-Lemieux until 2016, I think David can improve more (and both guys are going to raise their status given their styles), but even so David's just not durable enough for Golovkin.

You don't need to be very durable if you have excellent defense because you will seldom get hit. The question that also needs to be answered is how does ggg deal with this kids speed power and aggression? GGG has never seen that type of speed and power and it will hurt him and cause him a lot of problems and take him out of his fight game and that will make it a very difficult fight with an unsure outcome for ggg.

Curtis is less durable dude, David took a beating but was never KO by Rubio, Russ Anber stopped it and David was a young kid 22 when he lost he was partying and ****y so his conditioning was wack and he was a hot head at the time look at his physique and conditioning back then and today worlds apart, he wasnt even gassed and h was throwing heavy heavy bombs from start to finish against Rosado, also GGG never dropped Rosado, David was attacking like a pitbull, David hurt Rosado more than GGG did. GGG is too slow man, if David shows bravery and doesn't fear GGG he will hurt him and test him, they can make this a huge superfight if David can win a strap off of Kid Chocolate and have a unifier, but I feel GGG might duck David and David will be ducked by Cotto and Kid Chocolate so he will have a hard time getting a shot and will fade and probably lose interest again.

I hope HBO pressures GGG to fight him, instead of guys like Murrary.

Maybe as a stay busy fight they should let David rematch Rubio on HBO? clear his name and stop Rubio in a rematch so people stop talking mess on the kid.

I said he is beginning to look like or resemble a MW version of mike tyson. He is not tyson but with improved defense and refining he will be a real threat to ggg. GGG fanatical fans cant see past all his flaws and hype to really be able to offer unbiased common sense assessments.

I told ppl that Lemieux was a serious threat but they were backing Rosado.....David vs Peter next...bring it on!!!
