    I've been saying Lemieux is crude for ages and that Canelo would absolutely humiliate him. Sure Lemieux had a punchers chance but people legitimately believed Lemieux would destroy Canelo.

    Lemieux is shockingly one dimensional

    I agree, I read a lot of predictions today that were picking Saunders to lose, and I was never high on him so I agreed. I should’ve realize that he was the better boxer of the two and would likely do this.

    If the judges give Lemuiex 1 round so far would be a robbery.

    Lemieux is overrated. Lemieux is also one dimensional. I've seen him get KO, outboxed, and dominated twice.

    Look at his record, not impressive.

    I like Saunders though. Boxing beautifully.

    The feet is the big difference. GGG has great footwork.

    I can’t believe how slow Lemieux’s feet are.

    I thought me might just do a sit up in camp and come in in shape.

    If it was canello in there you could be sure there would be at least one shady card

    Lemieux hurt bjs with a body there in first 1 minute of 10th. You could see bjs wince. BJS superior hand speed is outscoring him in this round. Lemieux looks lost at the end.

    BJS 99-91

    Ironically he's taking a worse beating than Rigo was but ya won't see him quit on his stool.
