Hopefully lemieux can land a bomb

I think I’m jealous so I want Lemieux to catch David slipping.

A popular line of discussion in the last couple of weeks is that “there are weight classes for a reason”. Is one of the reasons is so that people can fight 2-4 classes below their natural weight?

It’s quite ridiculous that almost every pro boxer below CW has to severely cut mass to fight, and this is one of the reasons I’ve never bought that Canelo is some a fish out of water at LHW, when spending years at 154 weighing in at 175+ on fight night.

Which brings me to the main topic: Benavidez is a ****ing Cruiserweight, what the hell is he doing pissing about with smaller men?! He’s even bigger than Kovalev, who is now actually fighting at sub-200lbs!

Lemieux is a 154lber who can’t stop eating French toast

Benavidez is a 175lber who hasn’t touched a taco in years
