    Why not have these 2 battle it out to see who can get Canelo ?

    Its a fight that would interest the fans but I dont know if it makes sense for either of them.
    One would likely lose and drop down the ladder.
    Possibly more to lose for Lemieux as he was not long ago a world title holder.

    still great matchmaking

    Neither of them can make 155. Lemieux can barely make 160.

    Both of them can still build fighting bums with decent records and hope to get a shot at a title.

    Would be a good s**** while it lasts though.

    Fight of the year usually lasts more than 2 rounds.

    Very true. But sometimes you can cram an awful lot of action into a couple of rounds.

    Not right now, let them both get another decent win under their belts before making one of them have to get KO'd again.

    A good tuneup for Lemieux.

    Agree! Gatti vs. Ward 1,2, and 3 were never for the top spot in the division. Just 2 good fighters who made great fights.
