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

[twosweethooks]

When Lem feels th Power from the King his azz will sink and he will go to frantic mode but it won't help King GGG will KO that azzzzz

[Joe Beamish]

I just caught up on some fights, including the Rosado ones. Lemieux isn't much of a boxer. GGG is going eat good that night, because Lemieux's style is tailor made for him.

[twrx]

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.

Rosado has said his money is on triple G because his his offense is more refined and will be catching lemule coming it at will . And we all know everyone has a game plan till you get hit

This fight ain't going past 6. little g's getting KTFO.

Wanna put some money on it ? $500 come on easy money

I think GGG fought a fresher Rosado

Me too. The Golovkin fight took something away from Rosado.

Lemieux doesn't get past the 3rd round, I'm calling it.

You could be right actually.

I think folks are definitely pumping up Lemieux.

I can see both guys having reasonable success early so it could come down to durability..... but I dont see Lemieux as good as Murray or even Geale, he can punch thats all.

Lemieux could be tough enough to give Golovkin some real work and take it into the later rounds, not sure.... I think I picked tko8, but wouldnt be surprised if this ended earlier.

Ima change my pick to tko5 now I think

Shut the **** you flaming ******. Yeah you are the best fighter and the biggest puncher in the sport after Gennady but you will get demolished like trash. Gennady makes A+ level fighters look like NOTHING. This will be a savage beatdown if you got the balls to take it. Don't retreat like a little sissy though, STAND AND FIGHT like a MAN.

1) Ummm, could you give me an example of that ?

2) Lemieux is not A+

Lemieux 26 years old faster hands and equal punching power. GGG 33 years old has the better skills. Both fighters have holes in their defense.
This fight is 50/50

But there is a gulf in experience here..... despite Golovkins underwhelming resume he has fought better guys than Lemieux..... this is a big step up for the Canadian puncher.

I actually think guys are starting to realise that and pick proceedings to end earlier than expected. The fact that Lemieux can punch keeps him in the game, but not sure if that makes it a 50/50 fight.

[aboutfkntime]

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 .

Yep, the most durable guy will have an advantage in this kind of fight.

Not sure about either guys durability to be honest, but Golovkin has been in with better guys than Lemieux.

It Seems Many are too Basic to see GGG's true Skill Level

Warr Lemiux !!!but Cotto is going to kick you ass after you beat GGG!

LOL! I thought this was joke, until I thought about it. Cotto Ducks both of them. Cotto doesn't get past pretender Canelo anyways, And GGG does away with his fight easy.

Pretty sure Golovkin goes down this time.

Maybe a lucky shot, but GGG has never been down, not even stunned.

judging by these comments, nobody gives Lemeiux a chance in hell.. and this is supposed to be Golovkin's biggest test.

In all fairness, there are few I give a chance again GGG.no one near his size. Ward has a chance because he is bigger, stronger, and can hold GGG. If judges punished constant holding like they used too, it would be over quick.

I wish some people actually had a clue about how GGG actually fights. Watch one of the many slow motion analysis videos, GGG is light years ahead of this guy.

GGG will make most finger looks silly.

Peoples think GGG doesn't have defense because his slips are slight, and his footwork is good. He makes people think he is in front, and they often miss, leaving themselves open to huge shots.

GGG uses his jap, and shoulder to blunt his opponents shots, often time redirecting them past his head.

There is a reason the man has never hit the canvas or been stunned in over 400 fights, professional and not.

GGG has sparred some good fighters, Canelo being one of them. Word is he sc****d Canelo. Which is why boy don't want none.
