Comments Thread For: Lemieux: Canelo is Great Style For Me, Fireworks For The Fans

[Silver Spear]

Take the beating Ggg gave Dave and add in the boxing skills that Saunders displayed against him and you basically have what Canelo brings to the table. At this point in his career Canelo has really started to polish his defensive skills while retaining his offensive ones. I just hope the fight is interesting and the entire card is worth watching.

It would be like the Kirkland fight but without any of the tiny bits of success that Kirkland had.

Canelo boxes him like Jacobs..... No way he gets intoa firefight with this guy.

One punch might end Canelo

He may have fought at those weights but dude is 5'7" and he looked smaller than David in that fight. As I recall Lemieux didn't bother weighing in the morning before the fight which would indicate he probably gained a significant amount after the official weigh in the day before.

Tyson was only 5'10".

Yup, he fought heavyweight and was the smaller man in height and weight in alot of his fights.

Stevens may have fought at 175 and 168 limits earlier in his career but it's a guarantee Lemieux outweighed Stevens when they stepped into the ring that night in Verona, NY. Stevens weighed in at 157 the day before and in his last fight against Omatoso he fought at 154lb weight limit. By comparison, Lemieux's last fight was at 168.

Jason Quigley it is...

Lemieux Canadian-Armenian? Lemieux is a French last name. Maybe ha is part Armenian. Anyway Canelo demolishes this guy.

Fireworks he says.....More like tweety birds circling his head.

It's also a guarantee that Canelo outweighed GGG in their fights.

No clue. Probably. I'm not really a fan of either but respect both. I am a fan of Lemieux however. I wanted Lemieux to beat GGG and I'd be rooting for him if he fought Canelo. The French Canadian has his limitations but he's tough as nails and has Dynamite in his fists if they land.
