    Love him to fight ggg complete war. Ggg inside 6 but lemieux can bang and if he connects who knows. Would be a great fight. Rosado is one tough guy

    Looked like a guy who gets in the ring to beat the f*ck out of somebody and that's what he did.

    He didn't get discouraged in the later rounds.

    But he kept get consistantly countered. Rosado didnt have enough pop to take advantage, but other fighters in the division can.

    I'd like to see Lemieux against Chris Eubank Jr.

    He's starting to use the jab a lot more effectively to get inside. He's doubling it up and he's coming in at an angle.

    I thought he did a great job. He can still make improvements, like ducking and rolling and changing position, but he did his job.

    Everyone loves a puncher.

    Could have looked better, could have looked worse. I think he looked much better than most expected him to. Many expected him to fade worse than he did, and then Rosado would have a good chance at turning the tables and scoring an upset. B- to B

    Eubank jr is not a world level MW, he's British-domestic level, maybe Euro.....

    At the end of the night, Lemieux took minimal damage against a skilled opponent with a hell of a chin and a lot of heart.

    I think he did pretty good.

    Despite taking minimal damage, he didn't run away from his opponent and stink the joint out. He never stopped trying to go for the KO.

    Guys like him are good for the sport.

    I hope for his sake, his people don't throw him in there with GGG next year. It would derail his career. Let him build himself up more before taking on GGG.

    Predictable... average speed... good power... good pacing (improved)... leaky defense (perhaps expected of a stalking power puncher)
