Comments Thread For: De La Hoya: Lemieux-Tapia Winner Could Be Opponent for Canelo

[BoliviaChiLEsp]

Lemieux is an exciting fighter but he cannot make 155 pounds to fight Canelo IMO.

Awesome, GBP as an entity entirely depends on Canelo

Good point. The winner verse the winner of Texieira and Stevens

LMAO 2016 sucks for boxing!!! all these fights are GARBAGEEEEE

[The Gambler1981]

That was a solid business maneuver by Oscar...
Golden Boy served up Lemieux (And his IBF World Championship Belt.) to GGG as part of the step aside agreement that allowed Canelo vs Cotto. (And Cotto's WBC World Championship belt.)

That IBF Middleweight Title (From Canelo's side) and the 800 thousand dollars GGG got (From Cotto side) was a sweet deal for GGG... But K2 can only publicly acknowledge the 800 thousand....

I realize Lemieux is fearless, but...
Didn't you find it strange that Lemieux didn't even make a voluntary defense or two before GGG ??? And not milk it like BJS...

Never discount ineptitude as a factor in a poor decision. I would say that is more likely than some grand plan, and if they had some plan it was more likely to do HBO a solid since that outlet is vital to GBP getting through this period.

yeah right, just like Canelo had to face the winner of David vs GGG

[Eff Pandas]

Does this mean Lemieux is gonna need to cut off a couple toes & his left pinky to make weight or is Canelo gonna move up to Super Caneloweight @ 157/158lbs.
