Lemieux will probably still be recycled as cannon fodder for Canelo at some point down the line. Canelo tees off and knocks him out then, just as he would have tonight or at any other point in Lemieux's career. The Quebecer is made for him.
That's because Lemieux was never that good, he's exciting because of his power but he's beaten nobody of note. People wanted to polish a turd in regards to Lemieux to make Golovkin's resume look better than it is. Fact is the division is dire in regards to quality, Golovkin, BJS, Canelo and maybe Jacobs are clearly on a different level to everyone else in the division.
Lemmy didn't seem too bad in his fights against guys like Tapia etc. I think that Saunders maybe just showed us what he's capable of when he's 100%
