Comments Thread For: Lemieux: I Saw What I Needed To Know in Golovkin's Eyes

[82zcori]

I'm using Rosado as my gauge for this fight since he's a tough fighter (though not a closer) . they both fought Rosado , although I don't think GGG would have stopped him had it not been for cuts . On the other hand , Lemieux brutalized Rosado from start to finish knocking him down 4 times if my memory serves me correctly . Lemieux gives GGG more than he's bargained for but not necessarily a loss.

i'll 2nd that!!!

I think GGG fought a fresher Rosado

That's prolly true , GGG more than likely softened that chin up for Lemieux

Rosado fought Golovkin, Love, Peter Quillin and Jermell Charlo. He's taken a lot of punishment prior to fighting Lemieux. I think he even had a BKB fight in there too.

Lemieux will be shocked come fight night if he thinks GGG will fold up.

Boxing is a game of attrition , therefore it goes without saying that all fights add wear and tear , but fighters like GGG , Kovalev , a younger Hopkins , Pascal , Lemeuix offer a much higher level of attrition than the average fighter like a Charlo .

Common opponents, like triangulation, is never an accurate way to measure anything in sports. Lots of styles and variables to consider that can make two contests look wildly different.

The only way to know is to have two guys (or teams) at the peak of their powers go up against each other.

GGG fought Rosado with a bad cold and almost postponed the fight. At 100 percent GGG would've destroyed him

He had the flu, actually, and had been in bed for a week before the fight. Any other fighter would have cancelled. Golovkin did a slice and dice on his face instead.

This is the last guy who couldn't shut up before he fought GGG. Golovkin did not want to KO him, but wanted to punish him. He won't punish Lemieux, he will just KTFO him. But I wonder if he will have a similar look on his face the first time he lands on his back?

The flu with 104 temp, as for the look on his face, it may be something similar after waking from his short canvas catnap.

If your premise is correct then there's no need to post anything speculative about any up and coming fights . The whole purpose for this site is for boxing fans to post their speculative opinions about who u think will win up and coming fights and why .
