Comments Thread For: David Lemieux vs. John Ryder - Canelo-Jacobs Undercard Finalized

[Sid-Knee]

According to boxrec

David Lemieux vs John Ryder
Lamont Roach vs Jonathan Oquendo
Pablo Cesar Cano vs Michael Perez
Vergil Ortiz Jr vs Mauricio Herrera
Sadam Ali vs Anthony Young

Jojo Diaz vs TBA
Alexis Espino vs TBA (Robert Garcia confirmed he's on the undercard as well)

David Lemieux fight could end up being for a 168 strap if Canelo vacates his before the fight. Or WBA could make it a Interim world championship belt.

You've got a point there. Ryder is the WBA mandatory so it makes perfect sense for that to happen. No reason why Canelo would keep hold of the belt if he's staying at Middleweight.

thats actually a fun fight! i like this alot, John might even be able to pull of the upset. either way one of them is getting stopped, no way this goes the distance.

I like Ryder and watched him beat Sirotkin live. Lemieux can KO him but Ryder put a better showing in against BJS than Lemieux.

Lemieux got the better prepared Saunders that was taking training a bit more seriously than when he fought Ryder. But yeah, a decent fight for sure.

I can't believe John Ryder's only 30, he seems to have been around for years!

And so does Lemieux... 44 bouts at the age of 30...

Great card...

What a fun little blast of rock 'em sock 'em ******s! These two may as well be '80s action figures, in the best way. Not too shabby a card overall.

This is completely true, but in fairness Saunders was not "Saunders 2.0" when he fought Ryder.

David Lemuiex is one of the most exciting fighters to watch!

I didn't know about all the Twitter talk b/c I don't do Twitter. However, I can't see any trainer letting their champion fight a 12 founder in March, and then f/u with a fight in May! Especially May 4th! Have you seen a champion fight that soon? If so, who?

Like I said go look up the history of there back in forth. This been going on since March. Back in March Farmer tried to play Jojo saying ok I'll fight you on May 4 show me the contract and I'll phuk you up. Trying to call jojo's bluff on twitter. Jojo had Golden Boy send him contracts which he turned down. Then basically said I'm too big time to be the co-main event. To which jojo said now you making excuses but ok I'll fight you a different date if you want it to be your own main event. Farmer has never said the problem is the date is too soon if he did he could of picked another date Jojo already said he was cool and sent him a contract for May 4 and for a later date so Farmer could headline. Then Farmer just got silent. Days later Jojo exposed his bytch azzz confirming publicly that Golden Boy sent him 2 different fight contracts which he turned down.

He never had problems with fighting May and himself asked for the contracts. Then it was him complaining not about fighting in May but that he was too big time to be on Canelo's undercard yet he begged to be on the undercard in Dec for Canelo/Fieldings lol These are puzzy excuses especially for a fighter of Farmer's caliber. There were more fans who showed up to Ryan Garcia's undercard fight in Canelo/Fielding then his own fight on that card. There were more fans who showed up for Katie Taylor undercard fight in Boston on the Andrade card then showed up for his undercard fight that night. He's not a ticket seller and he's not making big money so what is the problem with fighting Jojo? It's also very likely when he does come back it will be on somebody else's card since he isn't a big draw my guess is he will fight on the small Andrade card they setting up for June (this is much better then fighting as co-main to so far the biggest fight of the year in vegas? lol )Him ducking jojo is about him wanting to fight absolute bums while he calls out Tank nothing more nothing less. Problem is he can't fight Tank on DAZN so in the meantime he turning down any quality fights on DAZN because it's a risk of losing. Jojo is better then the clowns he's been fighting and I promise you whenever this joke returns it will be against a fight nowhere near as good as jojo. It's impossible to defend Farmer right now.

Think ryder would beat him at 160 but a non drained lemeuix at 168 spells trouble ryders been clipped before.

No doubt Farmer was selling wolf tickets, but Jo Jo should've seen that coming! Nobody would allow their fighter (and Champion) to fight that soon, after a 12-rounder! That was no easy fight! I would like to see Jono again! Farmer is definitely foul for backing out of the fight, but May 4th was just too soon! I hope to see Jo Jo vs. Ryan Garcia real soon! Oscar, make it happen! ASAP!
