    The guy has so much power it will be interesting to see how GGG reacts after he feels the power

    Lemieux is young in his prime hungry and is at the best moment in his career would not surprise me if he beats GGG up bad

    I agree but after seeing curtis stevens nail GGG with a left hook to the jaw and GGG just smiling i'm not sure a 160lb fighter on the planet can hurt him.

    Only complete fools are giving Lemiuex NO CHANCE and calling this a cherry.

    Lemiuex had a setback when he was 21/22 y/o.....he's matured and has got his timing down so much better since his back to back Ls vs Rubio and Alcine.

    That newfound timing and measured pressure would have easily won those fights and he'd still be undefeated.

    Hell, it might be Lemiuex who'd be getting all the hate from the Wardos. :patsch

    Wardmos are just as deluded as their hero, so don't take any note of what they think

    Can we please stop this? Stevens isn't a gigantic puncher like Lemieux. Not only that, he didn't hit Golovkin often enough to really get taken aback at his chin's durability. This wasn't Matthysse/Provodnikov or Chaves/Rios ffs.

    Lemieux literally took N'Dam off his feet like he was hit by an RPG at point blank. Lemieux is clearly the better, more talented puncher than Stevenson.

    Seriously, if anyone in the division can KO Golovkin, it'll be Lemieux. The man hits like a mule. I'm excited for this fight, and Lemieux gets a lot of unnecessary flak for his loss to Rubio. He's shown already by beating N'Dam that he's improved.

    Andy Lee hits harder. And that shows you how poor 160 is

    Crazy moment. Stevens bombs him flush and Gennady just turns his head. Was like something out the Terminator

    Spot on

    Just keep in mind is that according to that poll the other month over 90% of ESB loves Gennady, its only a select few that whinge, downplay and discredit everything Gennady does, most of us love the guy

    Andy Lee has a very hard punch, his right hook is probably more powerful than any of GGG's ****nal so that's not a slate on them...

    Actually, they're right. Andy Lee does have huge power, but the dumb statement is that it shows how weak the division is. :patsch

    David probably seems to be a hard hitter because of the number of bombs he throws at full force during a fight. Quillin and Lee, if you only consider the few shots they throw at full force during a fight, have more one punch power IMO. And I'm a huge fan of David's. Cotto's big left hook is probably close to David's.

    Actually, he may easiliy hit harder than 3g.

    He's more explosive, faster. 3g relies more on sistematically breaking down his opponents.

    Peter Quillin put N'Dam down on the canvas SIX times. Lemieux couldn't manage to put him down once. Hardest puncher @ 160 besides Bumlovkin? I don't think so...
