    David will start appearing on either Showtime or HBO late this year, maybe sometime in the summer if we're real lucky. :good

    To all who are in --> :thumbsup :deal :smoke

    The force is with this kid haha. His left hook, left uppercut, straight right and right cross are all awesome to watch.

    Whoever is going to the Rubio fight, we should go for a beer before the fight. :yep

    I'll jump on this train! Always love big and fearless punchers, certainly when they have lots of other skills.

    On top of that, I love :canada

    Definitely, we learn more about each boxer with each fight we see so my opinion of how a fight would go isn't set in stone. If Golovkin/Pirog show they can't take a big punch, I'll give Lemieux a much better chance, just think they are more multi-dimensional right now.

    I think Sylvester is very poor, there's a load of boxers I'd pick to beat him right now, he fought for a vacant title and has been the beneficiary of some corrupt judging. Honestly think Lemieux would have him out of there within 4 rounds. Sylvester is small also, Lemieux would walk through him.

    Lemieux is the best prospect in boxing at the moment, imo.

    Exactly. Of course PWill & Jacobs are setting the example. :lol:

    A German fan here said he saw both Sturm and Sylvester at an airport, and that Sylvester dwarfed Sturm... David isn't exactly tall in the ring either. I'm not super knowledgeable on Sylvester's chin, I've only watched 1 complete fight (vs Sturm) and random highlights, so KO/TKO4 could be dead on for all I know.

    yeah I'm a follower of this guy since his 11th fight.

    The Competition...

    WBC: Sergio Martinez, Sebastian Zbik, JCC Jr
    WBA: Felix Sturm, Gennady Golovkin, Hassan N'Dam N'Jikam
    WBO: Dmitry Pirog, Fernando Guerrero, Matthew Macklin
    IBF: Sebastian Sylvester, Daniel Gaele

    Some great tests out there for Lemieux.

    Would like to see him to take out the German champions. I think he would KO Macklin, N'Jikam is an awkward fight, Guerrero & Pirog are good tests and I don't think Arum will want Chavez in with him anytime soon unless its forced upon them.

    Absolutely. I think they would have the balls to send him to Germany for a fight in Zbik/Sylvester's backyard. Possible KO. I don't think Macklin's people will want any part of Lemieux. N'Jikam is on track to fight Golovkin, and... man, I'd love to see HBO sacrificing Guerrero in a Lemieux fight. Winner gets Pirog. :hey

    HBO will need some reinforcements really soon. David qualifies. :p

    Hahaha. I'm alone in here and laughed pretty ****in loud for my standards.

    Edit: yeah, so what the German fan said was probably the other way around...
