    Just watched the Rosado-Lemieux press conference on the Scene... big (perceived?) difference in height between the two. Lemieux is listed at 5'9", Rosado at 5'11" but it looked like a 3-4 inch difference. David is T-Rex'ed for those who don't know, he has short reach and throws very compact, short punches.

    Again for those who didn't exactly follow Lemieux's career, Russ Anber was training him up until the Rubio debacle. Anber felt like David "liked eating too much", didn't put in work in the gym and fell in love with his own power... so he resigned, he gave up and fukked off. That's where Marc Ramsay, who trains Pascal and Beterbiev, came in. Ramsay got Lemieux to hire a nutritionist and had David trim down for the Upshaw, Torres and Guerrero fights.

    ... and "trim down" is an understatement. Look at the Rubio and pre-Rubio fights, you'll see a lot of flesh around Lemieux's mid section. Not so much now. His body fat went down significantly, and his approach i.e. self-pacing in fights has improved considerably if you compare the Rubio fight with the Torres & Guerrero fights. If you actually watched those fights you know what I'm talking about.


    Lemieux TKO Rosado, don't give a fukk when or how it happens. Anyone to pick Rosado for a 1-month ban bet? I could use the break around Christmas haha...

    I guess we can add two more fighters who shed height to make weight lmao.

    Depends where you look... 5'11.5" & 5'9.5" is what Boxrec says.

    Just so we are clear. Is Rosado a real MW now, or is Lemieux just picking on little guys?

    So, why is he still in the same weight class ? Shouldn't the trimmed version go down and destroy light middles ?

    How about putting up vcash instead of these idiotic ban bets? Vcash clearly shows if you know anything about boxing or not, that's why most are afraid to use it.

    I'll wager 5k on a Rosado win. How about you? I'll accept whatever measly wager you put up, because it's going to get lost anyway.

    i'll pick lemieux to bust up rosado, although the latter is a pretty tough guy himself.
