    He should fight Demers next.

    Agree...Would be a hell of a local fight and a very good test for Lemieux...

    He's strong and fast but has defensive flaws that will get him caught at the top level. I'm not sure if he still does it but I recall him throwing combos against people on the ropes with his hands going wild and his chin in the air.

    He's 20 years old. He definitely has defensive flaws, but he's gonna get better over the years. His guard was very tight tonight with good head movements.

    That's good to hear. Anber said he'd like David to have about 40 fights with bums before he moves up, I think that's a good idea, even Demers at this point might be rushing it.

    MW is going to be amazing in a couple of years with Golovkin, Jacobs, Korobov, Lemieux, Andy Lee, maybe even Lara. They're all up and comers so I think David has time on his side.

    He has the equipment to seriously hurt people and he's good too.

    100% KO ratio, makes one really want to see him pass the test against a higher level. This needs to be his last venture at or below Contreras' level.
