Saunders vs Lemieux announced for December 16th

I see it actualy being lemieux attacking full on early slowing down mid way while still a good output to maybe being tired later. BJS isnt going to win super close rounds just because like he has in the uk.

 

This fight is taking place in Lemieux' backyard, with GBP backing him.
So Saunders' signature close decision win won't cut it in this case, certainly not because he would be the guy on the backfoot for most of the fight.
Everything else as Saunders "schooling" Lemieux, will lead towards a Lemmy victory here.

 

I see there being a lot of rounds that could go either way
which has been BJS career but he wont get the close roundshe didnt actually win in canada. and close rounds he did win might NOT go to him either reverse of what he's used to.

 

It's the fact that Saunders has avoided Genuine competition since he won the belt.

 

Billy Joe will absolutely school Lemieux but I fear for the scorecards

 

Saunders is actually now in shape for the first time in he's career so gassing my not be an issue

 

I'll toss my coin into the Lemieux hat.

He's looked great since dropping the L to GGG.

Saunders has managed to do the bare minimum to win.

If Saunders can fulfil his potential, then yes, he will probably win it wide on points. But I'm guessing that Lemmy is going to wear him down and out.

 

He was but there are still question marks. The Monroe fight was fought a snails pace so told us nothing in regard to Saunders stamina. I appreciate his working a lot harder now prior to fights but still need to see him in a real fight

 

I guess Golden Boy really did push a lot of money into this fight. If Lemieux wins this is perfect because they get the last middleweight belt and this guarantees Lemieux a fight against either Canelo or Golovkin. And if Saunders win, this is his opportunity to shine in the US so a potential fight with Canelo (should he prevails against GGG) would be bigger.

And I'm not sure BJS is such a ticket seller in the UK. I don't know how many seats there are at the Place Bell in Laval since its fairly new, but it's David hometown so I'm sure it will be full.

 

Saunders has not impressed for a while. He lacks punching power to get any respect from Lemieux. I can't see him surviving this fight. I think he is in for a terrible beating. He will probably have 2nd thoughts and try to snivel out of this fight. I wonder what they are paying him.

 

LEMIEUX BY KO.

Rounds 3 - 8.

 

I don't have a great deal of experience watching either of these fighters, but IMO Saunders is the better boxer.

While Lemieux has an obvious punchers chance- I lean towards a Saunders decision.

 

Wont end well for Saunders...

 

Exactly !!!!!

BJS has no chance to leave Canada with his belt. He has to dominate like never did before. He doesnt dominate bums, plus he'llbe wary of David's power.

Plus Golden Boy needs that belt ASAP


Boys, put your money on BJS so I can collect on the last day

 

I am impressed BJS defends his title outside. He won't have judges or referees. I say Lemieux by ko in mid rounds
