WARTAPIAAAAAAAAAA!!!! This dude is one of my favorite fighters but I fear lemieux is a Lil too much right now. Hopefully I'm wrong. ..

I'll be rooting for Tapia but Lemiuex will be too much.

Tapia will benefit from the extra weight, but this might be a step too far for him.

Golden Boy is giving him no give me fight at all. Tapia has good attributes but Lemieux is on a whole other level. He has the power to give Lemieux problems but I'm not sure how his chin will hold up against one of the best power punchers in the division.

Tapia calls it a make or break fight and Lemieux may very well "break" him.

I really don't see this ending well for Tapia at all especially given how he fights and how bad his stamina and defense is.

He has no boxing brain at all and will play to LeMules strengths and get himself decapitated.

IMO,
I think that's because Golden Boy also promotes Lemieux....
They are feeding Tapia to Lemieux while Tapia still draws a little interest...

Tapia is no good. His head is coming off may 7th. Idiot signed with golden boy to get KOd again

Goldenboy obviously doesn't care for Tapia. Poor kids getting KO'd again.
