The British public only went crazy because Mike McCallum (who bitterly detested Eubank) said at the halfway point that he had Watson (his friend) in front! Then Jim Watt, nuthugging McCallum, said in round seven "Let's just say it's even at this point" ::**
But Eubank thoroughly schooled Watson and won the first six rounds as easy as a cuppa tea.

He won the first six rounds, crystal clear, he made Watson look average before dehydrating.

You're joking right?
Herol Graham would have done a lot worse to Lacy A LOT WORSE!! And Eubank would have had a field day with him, and Benn would have hit Lacy with so many punches, Lacy on the night he fougth Calzaghe too? Benn would have put Lacy in a hospital.
Ok so Benn may have got to him, but as for Herol Graham doing "MUCH WORSE" how could he do much worse than land over 1000 punches ???
He would do a lot worse then Calzaghe did, not just in physical beating but in mental beating, he would make Lacy look stupid and even worse form then Calzaghe did and I doubt Jeff would be talking about a comeback anytime soon.

The fight was for a world title, Graham wouldnt have won ;)

You're right as it goes Starr - Benn, Eubank and Graham would of all been far more impressive destroying Lacy.... it goes without saying how bad Jones, Toney, Nunn, Hopkins et all would of made him look
How about Sven Ottke? :o Can you imagine the beating he would of gave Lacy?
Collins? Close? Dan Sherry? Nicky Piper? :o All would of embarrassed him.
In a way I guess Lacy exposed Calzaghe lack of ability?

I think Calzaghe exposed Lacy's lack of style and dimension.
Lacy may have ability, and he may have power and he may have speed, but if he doesn't have a gameplan and the right style and the ability to change when the going gets tough then he's just another Tua. Who will look spectacular if given the right opponents, but fighters with a gameplan to beat him which saddens me because I am a huge Lacy fan but Calzaghe took advantage of every flaw Lacy had and sadly he had a lot.
Re: what if calzaghe vs benn calzaghe vs eubank prime calzaghe vs collins
Absolutely, one of which being a dreadfull corner.

It was never a robbery, I had it by 1 round to Watson, Eubank definitely won atleast 5 of the first 6 imo. Watson would have won a clear UD in the rematch, had it not been for the tragedy - but fair play to Eubank, he did get the job done!

Yeah mate hindsight is a wonderful thing ;)
It was obviously Lacy's flaws lack of ability and gameplan that cost him the fight that night Calzaghes brilliant performance had nothing to do with it ::**
Shame all the so called "experts" that predicted an easy Lacy win didn't point out all these glaringly obvious flaws before the fight, in it like?
