If this fight is made, it will probably be PPV and have MMA and Pro Wrestling on the undercard.Quote:

Are you sure this would be at 168, I thought Lacy's last fight was at 175.
RJJ, it taking advantage of a name here in Lacy, why not I guess. He needs a win against a name to justify staying in boxing.
Can't say I'd go out of my way to watch Lacy ever fight again.
Good matchup, what's wrong with people. Two fighters don't need to be the world's best to make for an entertaining scrap.
Ok so neither is going to be force on the world stage again but I'm certainly intrigued as to how this would go down.
Very entertaining fight imo.
I'm with Bilbo, Roy still has the skills to give Lacy a hard time, Lacy's always had KO power, would be interesting. RJJ by UD
Both fighters should retire really. But if they are going to fight then why not against each other? Is Jones Jr. trying to go through the Calzaghe back catalogue now? :-\
Jones by stoppage or points decision. His speed would befuddle Lacy who just cannot seem to get his punches off very well anymore.
I think both fighters should retire Jones especially but I'd like to see it. Hopkins might not fight for up to a year after fighting Adamek and Jones needs to do something to fill in the time. I think he wins easily. It'd sell a lot of tickets in Florida.
Is it just me or does no one think this will be a breeze? Lacy is passed it...Jones is almost there aswell
I think Jones would have this by the 6th
Roy weighed in at 169 against Trinidad.
I think RJJ would pepper Lacy with power shots, Jones still has better speed and reflexes than alot of good fighters. Lacy has never been stopped and take shots pretty well.
I would say RJJ by decision.
The problem is I dont think Jones should be taking anymore shots to the head. It just seems like something bad is going to happen. Lacy has decent power and throws wild hayemakers and if they land could cause problems....
I imagine this would be a pretty good seller in Florida.
Why not, neither guy seems to be able to compete on an elite level anymore, so fight each other, it would be a fairly big Florida fight, and there's some intrigue there.
Off the JT fight, I'd say Lacey is done. I'd enjoy watching Roy ice him with a pot shot and getting him off the scene. Nice kid, but his elevetor is going down and he needs to get off it.
Nothing to do with the thread and sorry to the starter of the thread but how do you insert a pic under usernames?Quote:

I guess so... seeing he has very little risk. But beating has-beens or nobodies is damaging on the legacy. I love RJJ but I wish he would just retire.
Well I think Lacy still has more left then Roy and this could put him back in contention if he beats the former P4P king. Heck why not make it in their home state of Florida. I think it is the perfect fight for both of them. Now if Lacy does beat Roy then the Lightheavyweights just got a little more interesting. Potential showdowns could be Lacy vs Johnson or Lacy vs Tarver oh and guess what? Edison Miranda is now a LH and that could be interesting if him and Lacy fought it out. Now if Roy wins then what? There is nothing left to prove at 175 and the only option is BHop which I think would be a very boring fight if it does happen. The only options for Roy is either try the Cruisers or just leave the sport. Which I hope he does the latter...
Well Lacy will have to get through Otis Griffin first, just to let you all know he is working very hard with me, so am hoping for a turn around and him giving Lacy hell, as long as he gets through the first few rounds expect a shock.
I was reading fightnews about lazy fighting this guy honestly thought why hasn't lacy and RJJ been talked about yet?Quote:

but he us a name so roy beats him, he gets some credit, lacy lands his Wfamous" left hook (haha) and puts a shot roy away he still rises.
perfect right
roy still wins.
Roy is just fighting guys now he knows he can beat. Kinda like he did most of his career. Just wants to go out with a few more wins to just save face and say he quit while he could still win a few.
I am hoping Otis beats Lacy since he is being trainned by Macks trainner!
I would love a Mack vs Roy Jones jr Fight on HBO!
