Thread: Otis Griffin was robbed by Jeff Lacy and his hometown promotions..

check this out , for those that didn't get to see this fight , it will be on you tube by the latest of this upcoming week. Notice that the Tampa fans booed Lacy after the decision and when he announced his interest in R. Jones , they booed him again....R.Jones has already been quoted that he should offer the fight to Griffin because this match turned out to be highway robbery..Lacy was the promoter in conjunction with another florida based promoter along with a few judges that prolly never touched the vegas boxing circuit..Understand that when you rob someone thats hungry , it becomes personal..Everyone knows if your 2 matches from a eliminator bout means your next to a mandatory title fight , and thats when real $$$ comes in...Again , thats when the full effect of being robbed takes place....Lacy and Griffin should rematch , on a undercard either in vegas or cali...Maybe on the Tarver/Dawson card.....I bet you Lacy would prolly run from that...Matter fact , he may have to wait a few months before the swelling comes down...Shoot a fair one next time or stick to promotin , cause you cant juggle both....

who gives a shit really? Lacy should retire, and Griffin was lucky to even get a fight against him, so he should just go cash his check and stop bitching, neither did anything to actually merit another big fight, i say give Clinton Woods a fight against Griffin and even Woods would brutally knock him out

Triple O was robbed !!! I gotta side with the guy above who really gives a crap, i actually kinda feel sorry for lacy i realize what the dude is going through. He did (past tense) have so freakin much potential hell he was on a game and everything but his time has just simply passed i don't think it was so much the joe fight as much as it was a string of bad things all at one time that has done ole boy in, now his best chance at ever being champ really is just a lucky punch...sucks i know.
