Reports from Canada state that David Lemieux (35-3, 32 KOs) will face Curtis Stevens (28-5, 21 KOs) in Montreal in October.

Lemiex is coming off a 4 round demolition of Glen Tapia while Stevens' last fight was a 2nd round knockout of previously undefeated Patrick Teixeira.

2 big punching middleweights, good fight imo.

I like it too

Nice.

Rumored co-feature is Pascal vs. Barrera.

This is an excellent match-up.

Cracking match up If Stevens is fully prepared and on song then he's a nightmare! Both guys carry a dig and both make mistakes/take chances. Should make for an exciting fight.

Awesome fight!

Great matchup. They don't always have to be superfights to be good. This should be a very good action fight.

Lemieux has far to much for Stevens, Stevens has a bit of a dig but not much else. I see a brutal beat down coming for Stevens.

Sweet! I hope allegedly get this in the UK

A while after it was first reported but this fight is now happening.

David Lemieux vs Curtis Stevens to top HBO card March 11 at Turning Stone. Announced today. Solid fight but not main event worthy. #boxing

If I have to wait until October I think that would be the biggest waste of time currently going! But as later mentioned I think this is happening in March so good fight, I fully expect Lemieux to get the ko by the 8th round, otherwise it can be seen as the demise of Lemieux, and neither fighter going anywhere in a hurry!

Yeah was originally touted for October of last year mate but didn't get made, so they're doing it this March instead. I think it's a good fight, they're both obviously a level below the best (GGG), but they can both bang and they'll both come to fight.

Yeah I think it'll be good while it lasts, but would love to see Lemieux in with golovkin again, I think the result might be very different 2nd time round with Lemieux having the knowledge and less fear this time!
