I have to ask what did the lemieux camp do to prepare? he looked completely clueless in there. did he have mobile sparring partners? did they practice cutting off the ring?
You can't teach a fish to climb a tree. The training camp probably went fine. It just was what it was - levels.
I usually get nervous before big fights and rethink everything i was certain about before the fight. Last night however I was cool as a cucumber. I had zero doubt Saunders would school Lemieux. Its weird though how most people underrated Saunders and now hes starting to become overrated. I thinks hes the current 4th best MW. Though not much seperates Jacobs and BJS. With that being said I still pick Lemieux over Cotto.
LeMule is one dimensional, but he's got a huge punch. Who said that LeMule was anything other than that? OP is a troll.
Lemieux reminds me of my little brother, all bully - no finesse, and no willingness/ability to find a plan B.
Lemieux proves, again, that he is not an elite player and is not in Cotto's, Canelo's, Golovkin's, and obviously Saunders' level. Lemieux is a nice gatekeeper for the MW division.
um no, Lemieux looked like he was 190lbs day of the fight. and he probably cheated to make weight behind a towel not stepping on the scale properly.
His corner was giving him good advice that Lemieux didnt listen to or couldnt pull off. he was yelling at him for what to do then late he said "don't you dare quit you finish this fight" Saunders did look like crap his past fights. I know a lot of people were crying that all ulysse did was run too but I wouldnt call that running it was just movement and what to expect by their styles. I gave the fight 4 rounds to know what would happen. once it was clear saunders was up 4-0 I knew it was over.
Lemieux looked like s**t. My buddies and I headed out after the 7th. Wouldn't waste any more time watching that garbage. He made Saunders look good, and Saunders is nothing special.
Doubt he put over 2 stone on that quick, but I get your point. How did he not step on the scale properly ?? I missed that !
