LEMIEUX STOPS O'SULLIVAN IN ONE
By Dong Secuya PhilBoxing.com Sun, 16 Sep 2018

Former IBF world middleweight champion David Lemieux of Canada showcased his awesome power when he stopped Irish Gary O'Sullivan with a wicked left cross to the jaw in the very first round on the undercard of the Canelo Alvarez vs Gennady Golovkin II at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas Saturday night (Sunday morning in Manila).
Lemieux came into the opening round throwing bombs and finally caught O'Sullivan with a big left as the round draw to a close.
Lemieux (40-4-0, 34KOs) who lost to unified middleweight champion Golovkin and to WBO middleweight champion Billy Joe Saunders, wants to face the winner of the Canelo-Golovkin fight.
"It's a 50-50 fight," Lemieux said when asked who he thinks will win between Canelo and Golovkin. "But I want to face Golovkin on my peak. I was not 100% percent when I faced him. But whoever wins, I want to face the winner," Lemieux said.
