    Yeah he does for sure, but without the skills to land that doesn't matter. GGG has the better timing, distance, variety of shots. Lemmy is a force though no doubt

    I'd love to see Lemieux-Jacobs or Lemieux-Canelo.

    Him vs Charlo would be great, too. Plenty of good matchups out there for him.

    At least Stevens didn't bring his daughter like Pascal did against that Kovalev monster!

    Lemieux adds another highlight reel KO to his already impressive KO highlight reel. I've always considered him one of the most explosive punchers in the sport.

    I see the opposite happening.. I think ggg will want to put a lot of pressure on Jacobs and put him on the ropes. Can't wait to see how it plays out though...

    Long as he can punch like he can he's plenty marketable think Jacobs would be a bad match up for him Canelo or Charlo would be great match ups

    You don't get borefest with Lemieux. I don't know why Max was so critical. Lemieux gave three exciting rounds. Lemieux is for sure no p4p, even though he could become a champion again, but he gives fan friendly fights, fights HBO should enjoy, why doesn't he try get some more hype with the guy!!!.

    So many good fights for Lem i just hope he gets them. Dude needs to buckle down on making weight though. He looked horrible for the weigh in.

    Staying shelled up was his downfall. He didn't move, he didn't jab enough or throw combos, and he was the shorter guy. He stood in front trying to counter a guy with one shot who can punch with either hand. Lemieux wasn't going to gas tonight.
