McCarty wins. LePew actually fought and didn't turtle or try to hit from behind which he made a career of doing.

A classic fight. Win for McCarty.

Lemieux started well although ate about 4 solid shots but lands his own well about 2-3(a perfect uppercut about middle).
Lemiux fights well about middle, blockng couple/few of McCarty's good punches.
In the end McCarty took over nicely showing his technic.
Lemieux with the good takedown(taking a grip of McCarty's arm).
EDGE McCarty in spirited bout(right off the faceoff).

It must have been embarassing for McCarty, a legit goon to have been hit like that by Lemieux.

If this is the fight I remember, Claude was a bloody mess afterward. May have been some "revenge" over the Draper thing
