    So you could be right when you said that Lemieux was being lined for canelo next.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    It may be a way of Golden Boy trying to force GGG's hand a little. If Golovkin takes the Saunders fight they can use Lemieux on the undercard to promote a fight with Canelo as I'm sure Lemiuex scores another highlight KO here.

    I would not be putting Alvarez in with Lemieux. He's not exactly hard to hit and he wouldn't be a weight class bigger than Lemieux like he normally is. Lemieux would probably be bigger. If you're going to lose then lose in a PPV against Golovkin, not against somebody Golovkin already beat. And if he does lose to Lemieux it'd be on the end of an unpleasant sparking, not an easy thing to come back from.

    Does anybody think Alvarez would beat Lemieux easily?

    No, but it will be interesting comparing how he does against Lemieux than how GGG did.

    I don't think anyone thinks Alvarez would beat Lemieux easily. But he would be heavily favored as compared to a GGG clash. Also it would be an in house Golden Boy promotion so they win either way.

    I think Canelo could probably find lemieux all day in the wind up and counters him inside with stubby hooks while Lemieux his bringing those wide punches that start back in Canada. Hilarious would be if it was for the IBF title and the day of weigh in is an absolute ghost town because Canelo and Lemieux are sharing burgers and fries at dennys or something.
    They want your @$$ beat because upsets make news. News brings about excitement, excitement brings about ratings. The objective is to bring you up to the tower and tear your @$$ down. And if you don't believe that, you're crazy.

    I think that he will have a speed advantage over most of the guys at the 160 division all good fights. As for him fighting Chavez I imagine GGG vs Jacobs will have a rematch so it would be fun fight to watch regardless.
