    Lemieux would decapitate Eubanks.

    Give credit to the biggest puncher 160 has seen since Julian Jackson. He can be out boxed but that power gives him a chance against anyone. It was domestic puncher against a world class puncher, also don't blame Lemieux for being bigger than Spike, Spike shouldn't be at 160

    Spikes simply not world level nor ever has been, anyone who had seen him box before knew he was gonna get pulverised by Lemieix, it's the perfect style match for him.

    Lemieux is fringe contender level and imo Spike is British/Euro level. You can’t hang with Lemieux you need to box, even GGG didn’t bother just slugging it out with him, that’s Lemieux bread and butter.

    When Lemieux uses his jab, he is really dangerous. The jab sets up everything.

    Weight bully is the single stupidest term in boxing. You weight class is whatever you can make. Lemieux isn't even a big MW. Plenty of MW's come in around 175+. Jacobs team said he was 182-183 for the GGG fight. It's part of boxing, move on.

    spike is a Gimmick. a solid clubfighter that talks himself into fights. if you look at his Talent, it is quite obvious he is Nothing Special: mediocre Speed, mediocre power, mediocre technique. talentwise, he is a trialhorse you put prospects against that Need to have a serious test. he will sort out the pretenders (like douglas) but will get beaten by fringe contenders.
    real top ten guys simply will do a number on him. Lemieux is a top ten guy.

    Spike is ok but Lemieux is elite deadly unless you run like a gypsy would from hitler or are ggg.
