Frederic and Lemieux drop the gloves for a great bout; Frederic explains why he likes taking on Lemieux (video)

These two are not just no strangers to fighting, they're no strangers to fighting each other, seemingly dropping the gloves any chance they get. Trent Frederic of the Boston Bruins and Brendan Lemieux of the LA Kings went punch for punch Thursday night until the officials decided to separate them. It was a great bout!

After the game, Frederic was asked why he seems to like fighting Lemieux.

"He was kind of running around in the first, so I definitely thought about it," said Frederic. "When he came up to me, I can't ever say no to him. I'm not a big fan of him, so every chance I get, I try to do it."

Boston won the game 5-2. Frederic had two goals for his team.
