Canelo vs Lemieux

[Cuban Linx]

The only way this fight can happen is at 160.

Lemieux had a very hard time making 160 for the GGG fight... There is no possible way I see him fighting at a CW of 155 or even 157. He would be a zombie.

Are you saying Lemieux is actually a super middleweight? He had 3 middleweight fights before facing GGG, didnīt he?

Call me crazy,but I'd favor lemieux. Canelo isn't a monster puncher by any stretch of the imagination,so I doubt that he kos lemieux like everyone is saying. Put that together with canelo flat feet,plus the fact that lemieux is going to come at him like a tank,I'd say the fight is pretty even,if not in lemieux's favor due to the power difference.

Canelo is too technical for someone like Lemieux. Canelo is absolutely at his best when a fighter comes to him, Lemieux comes at you with not a lot of technique, he is not too tall or particularly fast. He is a big puncher, but Canelo doesn't struggle with those, or pressure. I think he is tailor made for Canelo, and I agree with the people that say he will stop him quicker than GGG. It's not always about punching power when it comes to stoppages, Canelo hits hard and he has speed and accuracy.

Lemule weighs in at 175...

They conveniently forget that. It's only Nelo who is cheating by coming in heavier than what the weigh in was.
They ignore the hundreds of others who come in a lot heavier than their weigh in fight.

Crawford (who I am very high on) came in at freaking 150s when he was at 135.

Matthyssee (NSB's former hero) would routinely come in at 150s low 160s (if I recall correctly)
