David Benavidez vs. David Lemieux | Showtime - May 21, 2022

[margaret thatcher]

benavidez sporting double shiners in this interview though lol

[margaret thatcher]

despite being tall, benavide'z best work is on the inside, lemieux will walk right to him and get chopped up

[lazboy]

I'll ask a more refined question...Benavidez before 6? I've put a little bet on.

[margaret thatcher]

with early stoppages, it often comes down to how much the guy wants to stop it early. will he coast a bit?

i think benaivdez can defo get him out before 6 if he wants. i think i went round 5 or 6 in the prediction game.

lemieux was hurt and down multiple times vs max bursak at smw, and he's gonna be there to get hit a lot

[skanksta]

I've seen men walk to the gallows with more hope than Lemieux !

Surely he's gotta go all in R1-3 and hope ?

[lazboy]

5-6 is what I bet. Fingers crossed for us both.

this could be a hard watch while it lasts...

[margaret thatcher]

looks like a decent crowd there

[margaret thatcher]

commission lady in lemieux's corner is decent too

[gregregegg]

ref jumped in befor the bell then. should be over... luckily i dont have a bet on round 1 KO or i would be pissssssed.

[margaret thatcher]

that stoppage looking pretty good isnt it

[(craig)]

Set of stones on lemieux, fair play.

[margaret thatcher]

brutal, corner should stop it

[lazboy]

Wow he survived rd 2. Credit to Lemieux's heart.

[gregregegg]

Think this stands even for the shortness of the fight. Could of realllllly applied if the corner didnt stop it right then, think he was about to get lit up.

[lazboy]

Benavidez's punches are just lovely to watch. He's fast becoming one of my favorites to watch.

he's good, he just needs to fight someone with a pulse

[Mexi-Box]

Man, Benavidez is the real deal. Holy crap, Lemiux was never in that. Brave show of heart, but it should've been ended in the second. Lemiux literally blocked every uppercut with his face. Benavidez just couldn't miss.

Canelo/Benavidez would be a barn-burner. The hand speed on display would be insane.

[margaret thatcher]

let's be honest, as good as he looks, he's been fighting absolute trash

[gregregegg]

comentator just called the first knockdown combo a left hook>strait right>jab....

not how i saw any of it... it was a lead upercut, right hand (not strait), lead longish shovley uppercut...

[lazboy]

His opposition is terrible and we want to see him step up. However, regardless of his opp, he has a very pleasing style to watch.

A lead longish, shovley uppercut ? Add it to the coaching manual - it sounds deadly !

[margaret thatcher]

pbc should get him plant next at minimum and start hyping up a charlo fight, since mall has no one to fight at 160 either. big dave is good and has a fun style and is liked by the fans. gotta give him a push
