Rubio vs Lemieux, Official, April 8th Montral.

[Spicoli]

Rubio despite the numbers is not some tremondous puncher. He has good wheels and nice pop but I think Pavlik showed blue print for assertive straight power vs him. This is a HUGE step for Lemieux though and worlds away from a Delroy Rains or cup cake stuffed Camacho jr but think Lemieux tracks him down and takes wide Dec.

[No Contest]

Rubio is gonna have a big reach on him, so this will be a good test. I like Lemieux's power, and once Rubio gets hit he will be extra cautious like the Pavlik fight. I think stoppage around 8-9 just like Pavlik.
