Golovkina and Lemieux turned down Saunders. Saunders got the MW division running scared. Khurtsidze got himself sent to jail to avoid Saunders.

Former IBF middleweight champion David Lemieux (38-3, 33 KOs) can finally return to the gym. He got the green light from his doctors to resume training. He was taking time off to fully heal a tear in one shoulder and a left hand injury that was sustained in his last fight, a ten round unanimous decision over Marcos Reyes, which took place in May as part of the Canelo Alvarez vs. Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. undercard at T-Mobile Arena in London.

that is absolutely absurd, and completely unjustifiable

I thought he wanted another shot at Golovkin ?

and why would Cotto ever fight him, and at what weight ?

he refused to drop 1lb below 160 for Canelo, and Cotto has already refused to fight any opponent at 160

how ridiculous

Dude is out of his damn mind.

Lemieux is a joke. He should have taken the fight with Saunders. It was a winnable fight that would have set him up as a legit opponent for the GGG/Canelo winner. Its so frustrating that we'll have to settle for Lemiuex fighting another Reyes level opponent if we get to see him fight at all just because he's trying to keep a loss from costing him a shot at Cotto.
