David Lemieux

By Dan Ambrose: Unbeaten middleweight contender David Lemieux (24-0, 23 KO’s) simply had too much power for former light welterweight contender Hector Camacho Jr. (52-4-1, 28 KO’s) on Friday night, taking him out with a single right hand to the jaw that sent Camacho Jr. down as if he had been shot at the Bell Centre, in Montreal, Quebec, Canada/ Although Camacho Jr. was able to lean forward slightly, his legs were failed to work with him and the fight was quickly stopped by referee Michael Griffin at 3:00 of the 1st round. Lemieux, 21, didn’t look that great in the early part of the round, as he was hit with straight left hands and right hooks from Camacho when he would come charging forward.

By Dan Ambrose: Number #3 WBC/WBA middleweight contender David Lemieux (23-0, 22 KO’s) will be defending his World Boxing Council International middleweight strap tonight against 32-year-old Hector Camacho Jr. (52-3-1, 28 KO’s) at the Bell Centre, in Montreal, Canada. Lemieux, only 21, won’t be fighting for any of the major titles for some time to come, because his manager wants to wait until he’s had at least 40+ fights before he takes on one of the champions. That’s a smart thing to do because Lemieux looks vulnerable on defense and undersized in terms of height and reach. Although is listed at 5’10 1/2″, his real height is likely around 5’8″, and his arms are very short for a middleweight. It’s going to be interesting to see how tall Lemieux is compared to the 5’8″ Camacho Jr.

The fight, which matches the one time top contender Camacho Jr. against the highly hyped Lemieux, will be taking place at the Bell Centre, Montreal, Quebec, Canada.

By Dan Ambrose: Unbeaten middleweight contender David Lemieux (23-0, 22 KO’s) will be taking on 32-year-old Hector Camacho Jr. (52-3-1, 28 KO’s) on October 29th at the Bell Centre, in Montreal, Canada. This is a fight that should give some kind of indication whether Lemieux is for real or not. Thus far, Lemieux has been carefully matched against B level fighters and it’s difficult to see if he can actually fight or not. He does seem to have good power, but his defense is completely missing. Lemieux goes out and tries to knock his opponents immediately.

By Chris Williams: Unbeaten Canadian middleweight contender David Lemieux (23-0, 22 KO’s) could be facing 32-year-old Hector Camacho Jr (52-3-1, 28 KO’s) on October 29th at the Bell Centre, in Montreal, Canada, according to boxing news from Dan Rafael on his Twitter page. Lemieux, 21, has an impressive knockout record but still is facing exclusively 2nd tier opposition despite being ranked number #3 by the World Boxing Council and #4 WBA in the middleweight rankings. For Lemieux, Camacho is pretty much the type of opposition he’s been served up for his three-year pro career.
