The problem he's facing right now is that they want to give him guys to test him into later rounds to see how he his doing. Lemieux's doing too good and knock them out early. In his 8 last fight the opponent got out of the 2nd round just once. The 7 others guys went down within 2 round. In fact, it's worst then that he got past the 2nd round only 4 time in 25 bouts and you count a K.O. in the 5th, one in the 4th and one in the 3rd.
One sure think you don't leave for the toilet in the first round during a Lemieux fight thinking there will still be a fight when you come back. I do want to see him tested. I wonder who'll do it.
