Saul Alvarez vs David Lemieux
Collapse

Every fighter should be allowed at least 1 Soft Touch to shake off Rust or whatever after this damn Pandemic. Also to buy some time and hope this Pandemic goes away soon so that when they make big fights fans can at least ATTEND and the big fights are actually done in front of a CROWD!Comment

Canelo fought the #3 middleweight in the world to unify titles followed by the #2 lhw in 2019. If anyone deserves a stay busy fight it's him.
I would prefer he fight a champion at 168, but as you all know it has been difficult with the current situation and fighters pricing themselves out.
Still a better opponent than Szeremeta and Steve Rolls though, let's be honest.Comment

It has to happen at some point - best I can tell almost the sole reason that GBP signed David was as a potential opponent for Canelo, problem is David kinda blew it either on the scales or in the ring each time they tried to get something going with building him.�������� David Lemieux is in talks as a possible opponent for Canelo Alvarez in September, according to his promoter Camille Estephan. Estephan has said he spoke to Golden Boy's Eric Gomez about this yesterday, though discussions are only at an early stage. [@JdeQuebec]

Honestly give me Canelo vs Ryder any day of the week and twice Sundays rather than Lemieux, but we probably better face the reality that Canelo - Lemieux will happen sooner or later. Maybe best to get it out of the way now.
EDIT: Ha ha, forgot David was scheduled to fight Ryder last year, not a bad fight that, I'd have fancied John there although Lemieuxs always gonna be dangerous.Last edited by Citizen Koba; 07-03-2020, 03:23 PM.Comment

Who was the other P4P fighter other than Golovkin, or are you counting him twice? I don't have Loma, Canelo, Crawford or whoever #1 because I really don't care about these artificial rankings.Comment

GBP have been trying to force feed us this garbage for years.
Lemieux is decent but he’s tailor made for Canelo.Comment

I was gonna have a few quid on John, just worries whether he’d walk into that left hook.It has to happen at some point - best I can tell almost the sole reason that GBP signed David was as a potential opponent for Canelo, problem is David kinda blew it either on the scales or in the ring each time they tried to get something going with building him.

He’d definitely outbox Lemieux, was just worried he might get clipped like he did against Blackwell.Comment
