Official: HBO Boxing David Lemieux vs Curtis Stevens

[FightLikeABroad]

Ok even better let's compare Hopkins losing to a "bum" in his professional debut in a 4 round fight by decision to Lemieux getting tko'd in a title eliminator....

Rubio was at his peak years and on a hot streak.


Lemieux had 54 pro rounds of boxing and 10 of em against Naugler.

He had a lot of off ring issue like a lot of guys but he had no work ethic and thought he was a GOAT because of his power.

He was even worst vs Alcine than Rubio if you watched the Rubio fight (I doubt it), it was easy til he gazed and corner stepped in.

Take Lemieux at 28 vs Rubio at any age, Rubio doesn't win a lot of rounds.

what boggles my mind is how many people thought stevens had a chance

pac got stopped several times by fighters nobody has ever heard of yet he still went on to became great. guys lose early in their careers it happens.

Yes and Pac moved out to the states and started training with Freddy Roach who molded him into the fighter we all know. Nobody had heard of Pacquiao until the Roach trained version who developed until and ATG thanks to drastic improvements in his style, training, nutrition, and surroundings.

Lemieux is not destined to be an ATG, and he hasn't made any drastic changes in his game. His style is virtually the same and the Rubio perfectly illustrated how dependandt he is on his power.

All this is irrelevant to the post you quoted.

Regardless David is still the same fighter who is only going as far as his power takes him. You talk about his stamina as if it improved yet the guy was clearly flabby in the midsection and has been so for a while contrary to the Rubio fight in which he looked in tremendous shape.

You are a sad and lonely man who gets ragingly angry because people don't like the same boxers you like.



Very powerful indeed. I've always agreed with that. Just terrible form and footwork. I wouldn't pick him over Jacobs, Canelo, or Charlo. But, I think I'd have him beating the current Saunders. That would be a good fight.

They are more skilled but Lemieux is still good enough to beat them. I'd love to see Lemieux vs Canelo at 160. If that fight ever happens, Lemieux will be the underdog so I can win some money when he knocks Canelo the f-uk out.

And not training well... and thinking he was bigger than his trainer... The Rubio\Alcine hiatus was bad for his career, no doubt ... But it came at the right time for him ...

Now Bring Canelo.... plz....

No way!...

It would be an "in-house fight"... with no truthful outcome whatsoever...
