David Lemieux: The Rise & Fall And The Second Coming Of The Vicious Pitbull Of Montreal.

Billy Joe comfortably beat Lee and Korobov is far more skilled than Lemieux, in fact I'd give Korobov a damn good chance at beating Canelo Alvarez. As far as Lemieux's chin vs Korobov's, I'd say they're about even, unlike Quillin and Jackson Korobov took a hellacious right hook flush never went down and took about 15 more, most people would have been knocked unconscious by the 1st one.

I'm not bashing David by any means, I've loved David for years, I think he has a good chance of beating most MW's even the ones I just mentioned, but you're underrating guys like Korobov and Saunders big time.

 

:good Korobov was a beast in the amateurs he beat Kovalev, Jack, both Chudinovs and KO'd Jacobs. As a pro not so spectacular but he did stop Derek Edwards, the guy that KO'd Badou Jack, that's something that Gilberto Ramirez and Andre Dirrell couldn't pull off. And dismantled Uzcategui who just KO'd Julius Jackson and shutout Porky Medina far better than DeGale just did. Saunders is as skilled as they come, almost a gypsy Mayweather.

 

Like I said in my OP he went all out and gassed, Rubio timed him caught him with a perfect rabbit punch behind his ear, it effected his equilibrium, but it wasn't necessarily indicative of a bad chin, which is what I was getting at with the post you quoted.

 

Nah BJS has a tendency to rack up points and then coast, he knew he'd won the first 6 rounds or so and with the two KD's he had it in the bag, so he didn't want to risk getting caught with anything big and played it safe.

 

I had it 8-4 + the two KD's 116-110 which is the accurate score, Lee didn't do nearly enough to clearly win anything other than 4 rounds, 2 others were close.

 

Tapia ain't bad either he rocked Kirkland several times and KO'd Dawson quickly something Trout couldn't do.

 

Yeah BJS tends to do that a little too often. He's a real under achiever.
