    Lemeiux has a punchers chance as other posters have mentioned.
    He certainly could make it interesting if a bomb landed but logic would say GGG by KO mid rounds or earlier

    About 10%. Maybe a hair less than that.

    GGG doesn't move his head at all. He throws punches and stays right there to be countered. He just hits really hard so fighters cover up to weather storm. Lemieux needs throw with GGG and catch him. He has a good chance with a good game plan. GGG is poor defensively.

    I'd say 3 rounds.

    True but Golovkin is going to want to impress since this is his chance to prove himself as a crossover star, so expect him to put on a "big drama show" since this is his PPV showcase.

    Abel and Tom have echoed this. Abel said Golovkin will be cautious the first round then starting the second round fans will see an all-out war. Hoping this is true.

    Jenna J: That’s one of the dangers with David Lemieux, because he is a legitimate hard puncher. With Gennady’s fan friendly style, do you think he might actually take things a little bit more cautiously earlier?

    Abel Sanchez: I think both guys will be aware of what the other guy has, but we as fans – and I am a fight fan too — we’ve been asking for the best fights to be made. The guys that are wingers and bangers that are gonna go in there and let it all hang out, that’s what we as fans are craving for. This fight got made, these guys are not going to take it easy, this is not going to be a May 2nd fight, it’s going to be a fight that both guys are going to try to hurt each other.

    I'm hyped!!

    I'm not sure what the hell is wrong with anyone who isn't hyped for it, two of the hardest puncher's in the sport of boxing going mano a mano, both with the power to hurt one another, will it be another Hagler Hearns...maybe not, but we don't know for sure...it could very well be. Add the that the potential for Gonzalez-Viloria and Ortiz-Stiverne on the undercard this is an amazing card.

    I can't wait.:happy

    Don't count Lemieux out.. He is much stronger and has devastating power. He lets his hands go he will land. One clean shot off comes your head.

    Unfortunately I can't.... I wish I was, but I'm tied up with obligations here in Florida.:confMy big screen TV will have to suffice.

    I hope you have an awesome time though..which I'm sure you will.

    Looking forward to the fight, although I don't think Lemieux has much of a chance :boxing2
