Saturday night at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York, middleweight David Lemieux took another step toward career redemption by stopping Gabe Rosado in the 10th round of a thrilling war of attrition. The bout lived up to its billing as an even match-up of fighters at a crossroads who were guaranteed to bring the drama. […]

It is far too common for those living in the great white north (including myself) to observe a fighter who performs almost exclusively at home in Canada and builds a community of rowdy fans within the Bell Centre waiting for their popularity to peak.

The undercard bout between junior middleweights Demetrius […]

That’s it. We’re done. Hope is gone and humanity will fail. If the two jovial, carefree gentlemen in the photo above, rapper T.I. and Floyd Mayweather (via), cannot get along, then who can? Forget peace in the Middle East, TQBR Radio is just waiting for Brad Pitt and Jen Aniston to get back together. Boxing […]

For half a round, busted prospect Fernando Guerrero acted like he might give fellow busted prospect David Lemieux a challenge on Showtime Saturday night, jabbing and staying at distance. Then Lemieux did what Lemieux does, which is to hit people very, very, very hard, and Guerrero spent the next two and a half rounds on […]
