    All Lemiux has is size and power... And GGG already took care of that anyways... I think any good boxer puncher takes him out of there... He does have a lot of power but.. Defintely not elite IMO... Good fighter though.. Crazy power too

    I forgot to add, in my long original rebuttal, that this isn't the FIRST TIME Brook stepped up. That would be Porter, and while neither Dan, nor Bizier, Hatton, Senchenko, Jennings, or Gavin are A level, they are all solid contenders/former titlists and considered a step up for a rising contender or a solid defense for a titlist.

    Now....in rebuttal to your claim that he was outboxed THROUGHOUT the fight, which fight were you watching.

    Brook is a savvy operator with good power and technique. He underestimated Spence ability to take his shots and lost in a battle.

    But thru 11 rds, Brook had 4 in the bank, and 5 would be fair as well.

    He wasn't winning without a KD or a KO if it went to the cards, but saying he was outboxed THROUGHOUT the fight..........that's as far from an objective opinion as it gets.

    You may as well say, Im and American, and I hate Brits, wouldnt give em a rd if they scored a KO during it.

    Had Brook survived held through the 11th, held and ran in the 12th, ala Floyd or Lara with a lead, he would have lost a 116-110 decision, on an objective card, at worst, 117-109.

    wonder how Porter would do with casting gauze for his wraps. Sweat activating the plaster in the wrap, protecting his knuckles from breaking, while at the same time, busting his opponent's face in pieces.

    He was rushed into the Rubio fight, and gassed trying to stop the iron chinned Rubio, who had also beat a recent Champion not willing to just let a 21 y/o prospect bowl him over, especially with a future title shot as a prize.

    His next L to Alcine, was him overcompensating for his loss of gas vs Rubio.
    Alcine, a solid boxer/puncher in his own right, had that one glaring flaw, a glass jaw, and Lemiuex's team horribly coached him in that fight.....had they properly let the pitbull out, a KO1/2/3 would have been almost guaranteed.

    He came back, got his stamina issues worked out, and showed vs NDam that 12 rds, while still putting the bang in his shots was no trouble.

    VS GGG, he proved that the stoppage to Rubio was just gassing, and had NOTHING to do with his punch resistance or defense.

    He's beaten every B level fighter he's fought, since Rubio, and had while NDam is not A level IMHO, his narrow loss to Quillin, while being dropped X 6, proves he no less than B +, and Lemiuex dominated him.

    As for ANY good boxer puncher beating him.

    They'd better have an IRON CHIN, GREAT DEFENSE, EXCELLENT FOOTWORK and a little size on him wouldnt hurt.

    IN other words.....Daniel Jacobs, GGG, BJS, CEJ, and possibly Mallow.

    Yellow couldnt take a completely drained(221 when he got the call 10 wks out) Kirkland power until he countered the china chinned no defense having LMW.

    I think in a 10 rd comeback fight, Yellow could earn a gift decision vs Lemiuex.

    But in 12 rds, Yellow would gas trying to run from the power, and Lemiuex would stop him late.

    Ok.
    How is Lemieux a bigger threat than Lara or Trout.
    Lemieux got completely schooled by Golovkin.
    He lacks conditioning and head movement. His jab is sloppy and he barely has any footwork.
    He telegraphs power and loads up as often as possible.
    He is one dimensional.

    You shouldn't need me to tell you why Lemieux is a bigger threat than Lara or Trout, its obvious he punches in a totally different league power wise. His confidence is sky high at the moment, naturally bigger and as I pointed out throws great inside power punches that could spark Canelo. Hes improved since Golovkin also. He is one dimensional, but not too one dimensional that hes not a risk to anyone he fights at the moment

    He's still the same Lemieux who was outboxed by GG and can still be outboxed. Lemieux is a danger to anyone, but he can be had.

    He has power but he doesn't know how to fully utilize it. He doesn't know how to properly finish a fighter. Just look at the Reyes fight.
    Fabian Rios fought a defensive fight and Lemieux couldn“t hurt him once.
    Yes, he throws awkward punches but he leaves himself open afterwards. Look at how Rosado countered him.

    Even Stevens was finding his own shots before that brilliant hook by Lemieux.

    Stevens was always gonna land his shots, its how Lemieux fights. If you haven't good footwork and a great jab your at risk with him. I know Lara and Trout are more complete than him but they dont carry the same danger

    Lemieux new fat belly worries me but he pulled off his last fight. I just feel he depends on his power and that is all he brings to the table when he faces a guy who can jab and move. I still feel he would have a great chance of KTFO of anyone
