[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

This past Saturday night at the Bell Centre in Montreal, Canada, former IBF middleweight champion David Lemieux (36-3, 32 KOs) returned to the ring and was forced to go the ten round distance, winning a lopsided unanimous decision over Cristian Fabian Rios (21-8-3 6 KOs) of Argentina. The scores were 100-90, 100-90 and 99-91.

Why does Saunders not fight him on December then the winner gets GGG or Canelo, if David he gets fight Canelo, and Saunders will be the man can pick and choose who he wants right now they are all at the begging table.

sad

[skinnystev]

canola should just go to 175 a target kovalev like popkins did

[SchoolTheseCats]

You can't even get down to 160 limit anymore so no **** a catchweight is out of the question

Lemieux had decent wins fighting a D-Level fighter (Rios) and a C-Level fighter (Tapia). Does he deserve a shot? no. Is he a decent B-Level fighter for a good tuneup leading into a super fight? yes. Who wins? Canelo very easily, Angulo/Kirkland/Smith type way

[MantisToboggan]

Is ****NELO going to take this fight? If Lemieux decides to take a dive since they both are with GBP, there is no going back from that.

[Canelo and GGG]

Easy work,Lamule is doing 160 with problems,Krikland type KO is coming.

[Eastcoast]

If we could get Lemieux/Khurtsidze on Dec. 17th, I would be very happy. Then the winner would have a mandatory shot at BJS. Canelo might be fighting Cotto next anyways.

canelo 'um um 160 isnt my weight, i need to drag you down to 156 for the fight to happen'

[HURTFEELINGS]

Yeah, you dictate the conditions to the #1 PPV Attraction in Boxing, because you can succeed where Cotto could'nt succeed at the negotiation table.
