Lemieux is a 8/1 underdog. I don't know why people are talking like it's a good fight, it isn't competitive. "Lemieux has power though" so do lots of other fighters in boxing that can't compete with top fighters in their division.
I don't really understand the dissent. Lemieux just handed N'Dam his ass, and N'Dam was a solid Top 10 opponent. Lemieux is without a doubt top 10 in the division and is a title holder. Matter o'fact, maybe even #5 (Top 4 being 3G, Cotto, Lee, Quillin in whatever order you see appropriate).
Now even mopping up your division ain't enough for the haters? 3G a big favorite, so he gotta instead fight outside of his division against Lara or Ward? I mean don't get me wrong, I'd love to see 3G/Ward and I'd love to see it at 168. But he's not passing on that to fight some bum.
He's a big favorite due to how good he is, what you want him to do, become less skilled to even the playing field?
He's a big favorite because he's fighting a guy who was stopped by Marco Antonio Rubio. No point in trying to make this fight something it's not. It is what it is.

y'all.
Other fighters have been held to much higher standards in terms of quality of opponents. Why not GGG?
No I don't know. Those fighters all went on to redeem themselves in a major way whereas LePew has done what? Beat N'dam?
Alcine is ****. Absolutely awful....didn't Macklin clean him out in 1 round the next fight?
You've taken an absolute battering in this thread and not just by me for a change lol. You must have not thought this through. Just a jealous rage thread to have a dig at "Froch fans"
I have an opinion and I stand behind it. I asked what the excuses are and people went for the losses. Duhhh.
You seem to be comparing the versions of today with Lemeiux.
Let's see how Hopkins redeemed himself big. Aah Won Vacant IBF MW title against Sergundo Mercado. Now I'm not implying David is even close to that level.
The point of bringing those guys up was why exactly are those losses relevant at this point?
"in regards to credit". Beating Lara would be put on par with Rosado by the likes of you.
You know exactly what I mean, but twisting my words in hopes to claim a hollow W is the new low you've reached, if it was any possible to go any lower. I can understand why you jumped big in this thread bringing up Khan. What battering? Your Khan-Porter thread you made to get at me got shutdown like you do every time you step up to me. You are after all the "budget" Box-Office.

How would beating Lara be on par with Rosado in any terms when Lara is a much better fighter than Rosado?
That's like saying Golovkin beating Canelo would be on par with beating Rosado.
Go back to the first page. You got completely slaughtered before we got to page 2 lol....and the hits keep on coming. It's getting ugly in here. I say you write this one off.
You poked your head out of Khan's ****ter long enough to try and talk about other fighters but it's been a horribly failed experiment. Get back to what you know best.
