Comments Thread For: Lemieux To Media: Why Are You Obsessed With Golovkin?

[bronx7]

Told you all

Told you Lemieux wants no part of ggg. I don't Blame him make some money then face the inevitable get knocked the f out by ggg

No need to rush Lemieux

He's still a kid. No need to get him drubbed by GGG at this stage. He can still have some excellent fights with Jacobs, Quillen, Cotto, Canelo, Korabov et al. And I'd back him to beat all of those opponents. But he needs seasoning before he fights GGG and it's simply not as marketable yet.

Lemieux has a point. There are better fights out there for the fans than Lemieux v Golovkin. It's GGG mania right now with the US boxing media.

Let the guy fight some contenders, he wasn't even ranked in the top 10 prior to this fight and neither was his opponent.

This is why I like you.

Agreed. The usual suspects are already hyping up Lemiux vs GGG just cauae he beat Rosado. They ignore that he got KO'ed by Rubio and outboxed by Alcine. It's actually laughable at this poin what kind of fights GGG fans consider as good. They wanna claim he's great but have really low standards for his opposition.

im getting sick of hearing about how badass ggg is as well. until he fights some fighters where hes not the bigger man or the favorite hes a hype job. now im not saying hes a great fighter but people are talking about him like hes won all these big fights and he has yet to win 1 and everyone says people duck him but i honestly dont buy that for a second i really dont.

Lemieux is a fun to watch fighter, who is still learning on the job. Put him in some competitive fights for the next year and then if he has proven himself to be a top level middleweight, throw him in with GGG. He is still far from his prime, and we do not want to create another Rosado.

He has been showing improvements, so it is still logical to allow him to work his way up. Throwing him in with GGG now would be very bad for him.

"hi people. i won rosado. i was outboxed by alcine and was destroyed by rubio. i am noname, but i want cotto, golovkin, quillin".
"...a lot of... obsessed with golovkin..." "blah blah blah"

come on, dude. it sounds weird. you need to respect people. lemieux needs to build his reputation first, take some good fights, learn some experience. what about rubio, huh? what about top prospects? then he will be able to say something like that "give me cotto, give me golovkin". there is a lot of good boxers lemieux can fight against. i would like to watch him to take ibf title from taylor. why not? lemieux/saunders is a good fight. lemieux/heiland is a good fight as well. what about lemieux/geal? golovkin's targets are: korobov/lee winner, canelo/cotto winner, may be andre ward and so forth. lemieux? well, if golovkin does not get big names in the next year, he will fight against lemieux. but i'm not sure about it. golovkin/abraham is bigger. golovkin/chavez jr. is bigger. idk

Why? Because everyone knows the plan is to feed to you to GGG next year.

Lol and he's not too thrilled about that at all! Rather go and fight bum ass quillin instead. He could turn Peters lights out. Rosado almost finished quillin.

So go to LHW then?

How many times has he been the bigger man? And in what way do you mean?

40 sec: "GGG never put Rosado on the floor,..., I put Rosado on the floor".


Funny how he seems to forget about this guy called Rubio.
