    Ive always said that BJS would outbox Lemieuxs ears off, BJS outboxed Eubank with ease and look where Eubank is now.
    Hes a very slick fighter, hes just an slightly undersized MW imo. Looks more like a LMW if he really tried

      Depends on how you define elite to be honest.

      Some people say Cotto was elite...but he lost every time he fought the very best.

      I think he could do to Canelo what Lara almost did.

        LOL BJS has always been elite. GGG/Canelo fanboys just tried to downplay him. The Lemule win doesn't mean that much to him IMO. He was elite when he beat Andy Lee and CBjr. Didn't really understand why GGG/Canelo fanboys thought Lemule was going to win. Lemule is not a bigger name than Andy Lee. Andy Lee win is 100X the universe than the win over Lemule.

              He looked amazing and skillfull but this was against the caveman Lemieux. A guy who's already been stopped and Golovkin has already did a better number on a few years ago.

                I think he has. Lemieux is a good fighter and he made Lemieux look like he couldn't fight at all. Only GGG could beat Lemieux that easily and if GGG isn't elite then no boxer fighting today is elite. Even GGG got hit more by Lemieux than Saunders did. Saunders put on a beautiful display of boxing against a top 5 world rated middleweight and that stamps him as an elite boxer in my opinion.

                  Time to raise the bar my friend.
                  Yet you rank a guy p4p 1 who hasn't even fought some one as good as Limeux

                    BJS is actually a pretty fair-sized MW, it's just the the SMW division has a lot of big guys who didn't want to fight at 168 and didn't want to face GGG. Charlos are 6ft and 5'11, Andrade is 6'1 and all have a reach advantage over GGG.

                    Saunders made Lemieux look like a midget the other night
