    Yes. This monster that got TKO'd by...wait for it...Marco Antonio Rubio?

    Who took 10 rounds to stop Rosado (himself coming up from 154 and 0-3-1 in his last 4 fights) ?

    Ok then. :good

    I'd give him slightly better than a puncher's chance against Miguel based on having 3 inches of height and 8 years less wear on him.

    Canelo (who seems to be pretty much his size) would kill him.

    Rosado is a good size middleweight with a great heart.

    When Rubio stopped Lemieux, David was just 22 and simply gassed out. Now he is much smarter and better in general. Rubio at that time was a very tough guy who gave a good fight to Chavez Jr.

    I would definitely give Lemieux at least 70% chance of beating Cotto and about 50% of beating Canelo.

    Wow, 70% chance of beating Cotto? Can't see that fight too much in Lemmy's favor. 50/50 at best for him.

    You do know that David was 22 and had fought no one of note up to that point right? Some acting stupid Rik you know he's improved vastly since that fight, and Rubio is a tough SOB usually and was on a pretty good winning streak aside from the loss to Kelly, but most lost to Kelly.

    Rubio and Alcine probably heavily disagree...

    Lemieux has a chance to knock anybody out at 160

    :-( He was a kid that was not ready for the big leagues yet. He's finally found his footing, give him a break Nonito.

    I was really hoping this talk of Lem being improved was real, but to me, I saw most of the same mistakes against Ndam, obviously Lem has grown as a man and is more imposing than he used to be, but it helped that he was fighting a guy with little real power and a shaky chin (not taking anything away from the win)


    Cotto and Canelo vs Lem are great fights, in which maybe I would favor Lem to be honest, but not by much... I could see many scenarios unfolding realistically in those fights.

    I agree with this completely. Was wondering if I was the only person...
