    Damn Foreman showed a ton of heart to fight with a torn ACL. Vitali quit with one bad ****ing arm when he was a mile ahead

    Guess ya gotta go for Lemoneaux. Aside from the padding he looks quite useful, and obviously powerful. Ayala can be tricky though so it will be interesting to see if Lemon can get another early night.

    I think Ayala will give Lemieux a few tough moments but get Ko'ed in the mid rounds.

    The way I see is this is the first REAL test of Lemon's power. There is no doubt he's faced a ton of cans that has padded the KO record. But obviously like when Valero was coming up you can't do that without something there. Tonight we'll see the extent of it, if he sparks Ayala early that would be impressive.

    I'd go along with what you say with a few less of the rough moments.

    Either a new Tyrone Brunson (also from Canada :think) or a new Valero. He does seem to have decent skills to go along with his punching power.

    Bit of controversy early on :D

    Tyrone Brunson indeed...remember a bit of talk about him coming up

    Fights more like Doyle Brunson

    21 first round KO's or something :lol: Remember some threads saying he was like Tyson :patsch

    At least this fight gives people a decent idea of Lemieuxs' power if he hurts Ayala or KO's him he has definitely got something.

    Not giving this fight my 100% attention but is Valdez causing a slight upset?

    Not watching it. My attention drifts with these type of fights, especially at this time. When lemon is on I'll switch my attention back to it.

    He has the exact same style as Tyson. Whats so ridiculous about that? I'm not saying he is on the same level but he fights in the same way.

    'Fights like Tyson' is kinda overused. Nobody fights like Tyson without the requisite talent.

    Very rarely do the kids compared to him have that mesh of offence/defence in terms of head/upper body movement like Tyson and that was a good percentage of what made him as a fighter.

    Sorry mate. I thought you meant Lemieux. Admittedly, I just saw your post and assumed it was about Lemieux. I definitely got my wires crossed! My bad. I've been drinking, I breezed over your post.
