If Golovkin is fading away and the Lemieux fight could be a pretty tougher one ...

    Yeah I think they actually want a war. Boxing is not a sport to be played like that. You will get what you ask for. a KO at this stage would end GGG

    Lemieux is another caliber of fighter than Stevens.

    He's not any different from what I have seen.

    He'll be fine come fight night (GGG that is).

    Lemieux is not a can, you won't be convincing anyone of that, sorry to disappoint you.

    More of a fringe contender than a can, but definitely not elite. Got a vacant title vs a guy who got dropped 6/7 times by Quillin, and will lose his belt just as fast as he got it.

    Credit for GGG if he wins for unfying titles, not so much in terms of the opponent he beat to do it.

    Sturm, Steglitz, Abraham and N'dam, and Quillin avoided him, but they're average too. He just came along at a weak period.

    No, but he has more heart, and that may make all of the difference. Stevens just looked nervous from the opening bell and threw weak punches all night

    Lemieux is a pit bull, but not the same caliber.

    No, not a can, a solid pedestrian champ. A really good fighter doesn't get his ears boxed off by a washed-up Alcine, even in his 5th fight.

    That guy was outboxing Quillin when he wasn't on the canvas. N'Dam is better than a lot of guys give him credit for.

    As far as I'm concerned he's only unifying two titles, WBA and IBF. He'll get the WBC in the Canelo fight, Cotto's not getting a decision there.

    Beta version. You didn't say what you think of v2.0 i.e. Guerrero, Rosado and N'Dam fights. Much improved conditioning, better punch selection and pace.

    Indeed, but top 10 fighters that are not willing to fight eachother create a weak era in certain boxing division.

    Now we have top fights @ mw like Canelo vs Cotto, GGG vs Lemieux, Lee vs Saunders and why not Quillin vs Jacobs which put the mw division in a good spot.

    Wrong! Lemieux improved a lot and he's not the same fighter.
