    Beterbiev, Alvarez, Stevenson, Lemieuex, all heavy handed, so most likely an exciting night of knockouts

    Lemieux-Alcine was a very close. I thought, after watching it twice, that Lemieux won. It was a majority decision.

    Lemieux won all first five rounds against Rubio who is really solid. Lemieux beat Ayala when he was what, 21?. Ayala had fought in a world championship. Lemieux was being brought up early. He had to step back. But he is climbing up the ladder again.

    Plus Bertebiev-Lara. Bertebiev is a beast, he won against KOvalev in the amateur, and he is younger.

    It is going to be a great card!

    U probably wise to play it "safe" and not endorse Lemieux too much Robney. But actually I think he just might indeed be a little bit of a "monster".
    He has tweaked a few things lately and is looking much more composed in there - and he'll always have 'monster' power! :good

    Lemieux always fades in the middle rounds. Why is that? Because he doesn't have the boxing ability once the other fighter starts to pressure him. And he can't fight going backwards. at 160 -168lbs this is a must. David does a good job of putting together punches and can feint the opponent outta his boots but he often has problems settling in for rhe fight like in the Marco Antonio Rubio & Joachim Alcine fights...

    Since than, he's fought a lot lesser competition. Not ready for JCC Jr., Andy Lee, Sergio Martinez GGG or any of the real $$$$$$$$$ fighters in the 2 divisions.

    there aren't any "great" fights on the card, but good enough to keep fans happy for a few hours.

    i'll be tuning in.

    Bertebiev Lacy should be good. It would at least be good to see where Bertebiev is at!

    Lemenuix has outstanding power but virtually no stamina. He does not know how to pace himself or even really box.

    True. But he's fighting Guerrero, so he won't have to pace himself at all probably :good

    Ishe Smith and Gabriel Rosado is better than anyone of Lemieuxs record

    That's the whole point I'm making. The Smith fight was a "could have gone either way, that always goes the way of the featured fighter" kinda fight. Scored a draw in the RbR and the Rosado fight should have been scored close for Rosado. Both dropped Guerrero in those fights. :good

    judging Lemieux stamina with the rubio fight is a mistake...david was full of himself at that time convinced that rubio would be out in 3-4 round,he ****ed up his training...had to lose 30 pound in a month :good

    Lemieux was 173 at the WBC's 30 day weigh in.
