Comments Thread For: Golden Boy: Lemieux-N'Dam Will Have U.S. TV

[MC Hammer]

I think N'dam learned a few things about dealing with power punchers from his fight with Quillen. He was much more aware with Stevens. I think he takes this one, because other than raw stregnth there are not many advantages I can give Lameaux over N'dam

Lemieux-ian all the way !!

Weird GB doesn't work it to another date in order to get it on HBO and make more money. Could see an injury holding this fight up a month and it suddenly making HBO.

smokescreen. Oscar owes money to Yvon Michel for Lemieux, seems unwilling to pay it, which has HBO keeping their hands off the fight (GYM, if not paid, could plausibly sue all parties involved for breaching a material contract), and Oscar trying to save face.

Lemieux has 31 knockouts in 33 victories. That is a 93 percent KO ration. That is higher than Golokin. Why is this guy not put on the same pedestal as Golovkin? Why is he not considered a great fighter that every other fighter, including Golovkin, wants to avoid?

I am sure that he and Golovkin have fought and beaten the same caliber of competition. If he fought Golovking, it would probably be a 50-50 fight since both have demonstrated equal power against mediocre competition.

sturm, martinez, cotto, ndam, quillin, chavez jr all turned down ggg, none of them turned down lemieux so actual facts determine who is being avoided. not you. sorry!

Good to know it will be on US TV. Wasn't sure if I was going to be able to see this one.

Probably because he got KO'd by a guy Golovkin smashed in 2 and Alcine.

Too much going on that date just move it

There's only two other cards: Ward/Smith and Broner/Porter. TBH, I'd watch N'Dam/Lemieux over the other two without hesitation. The CW and rehydration nonsense has soured me on Broner/Porter, and the Ward fight is also a CW bout against an opponent that's nowhere near his level.

This and this.
