That's 2 months after the fight :helmet:
Yes but i'll admit if im wrong like i already did with Juan Diaz, Kelly Pavlik, i wasn't wrong about Jeff Lacy. I never see anything about him that stood out other than his power, im not trying to hate on your boy Amat. I got nothing against Jeff Lacy he seems like a nice guy outside the ring and he is good for the sport, but i honestly never thought he was anywhere near as good as the hype.Quote:

;D
yeah i said lacy would be beat well, think he has a chance against taylor though
I didn't, but I started questioning why he was having so many difficulties with average fighters like Vanderpool, while Calzaghe was dominating the same caliber of opponents, I didn't know as much about boxing then, nowadays I would have seen it immediately.
Like I have with Miranda, that being said Lacy had a lot of potential because he was pretty fast and he was so strong, but he haymakers really limited his speed, and his power because his arc is so big on most of his punches, I still feel if he would have focused on being a better technical fighter that he would have been a special fighter, but he started getting Tyson comparisons and he was done.
Not dogging Lacy but when Wiggins,Vanderpoole were boxing him a bit & some what slippery/awkward Grant made it 12 ,I began to see it coming.Was before my day's here but I thought Calzaghe would outwork him....but never like that.
Not me...
I thought Lacy would beat Joe by TKO late in the fight.
I remember calling it a 50-50 fight, but have to admit wasn't confident of Joe pulling it off. The lack of confidence was mostly with Joe's lack of recent form, he'd looked awful against Salem, and at the time I couldn't help but think Lacy would have battered Ashira in a round.
I think you can beat a guy TOO handily, it just adds question marks on the opponent. Hopkins also won so handily that there are just as many threads asking 'what was wrong with Pavlik' than there are praising him.'
I thought he would beat Joe.
i didnt know JC at all before i watched lacy. but it didnt like lacy neither i just thought he was well conditioned and in good shape. but to be honest i was going for Lacy. but i knew he was nothing special he just had a good punch on him
