Fine Thanks, and thank you for asking

Ranking LACY today which ranking would you offer him?

I would rank him 5-7 I guess.

This is a stupid post...

Of course he would , he would be in top ten, I would even say top 5

just cuz he had 1 beating of an amazing boxer he gets degraded like this.....

And I dont even like him....

but this is stupid!

Come On friend, we both know that Lacy will never become a major player in the SMW. His boxing skills are simply to poor. Hands down.

[Unknowndonor]

Can't say for sure, but I'm sure he would be in the top 5. He still has the power to KO anyone. Before the loss to Joe, I would say he'd be top three at least, but now that the blueprint to beat him has been established, he's going to have it rough regardless of where he is fighting or ranked. Hopefully he makes proper adjustments, and learns to set up his punches better. If he does that, he might do something. But, like I said above, alot of fighters aren't going to be scared, and will challenge him harder after they have seen how to beat him. His future could go either way. We'll see if he has enough heart to make the right choices, and walk through the fire. He showed it against Joe, even in losing. Now, we'll see the true test of courage in his road back.

Im not too famaliar with the SMW division, there are alot of undefeated fighters out there

He already has become a major player in the division and still is after 1 loss.

what next?...Chris Byrd out of the top 25 european hws? how about Zab? get real....Europe has on bonified star a SMW and thats JOE C....not kessler or what ever bum of the month england puts out....

[Taeth]

He would easily be top 25... it owuld be stupid to put him lower than 5...

[Wacko3205]

The thing is...at 168lbs...lately...titles & positions have changed hands & spots more than Royal changes his screen names...but one thing is for sure...opposition wise Lacy has shown more heart & fought better fighters than any of the fighters that are currently ranked in the top 10.

Yes...that does include Kessler.

I'd have Lacy ranked either 5th or 6th. Just under Beyer, Chanet, & Mkrtchian.

The thing about boxing...you don't just toss a man off of the map because he lost to the best in the world...you just move him down a spot or two & wait for him to make another move...that's what makes champions.

Most boxing fans don't let bias & stupidity rule their decisions.

I like Kessler...but he's unproven & he's on fought two or three mentionable names...Lacy fought the best in the world & quite a few others...not to mention...he's done a bit of globetrotting...Lacy will be just fine.

The verdicts still out on my boy Kess...but Lacy sure as shat aint the closed case that the Danish try to make him out to be.

Just under Chanet

...Are you serious? Wow I disagree STRONGLY (seems to be a theme with me and you regarding rankings ). First off Chanet got a gift defeating Tyspko. The fight was a draw at least. Then he went on to get KO'd. How is he over Lacy? I mean...I could see an argument for Beyer, but Chanet has looked less then impressive in his last two fights. I would have Lacy #3 behind Kessler. Outside of Chanet, Mkrtchian has beat absolutely noone. I would have a little difficulty placing him in the top 10, running through my head I would probably have him at 10 but above Lacy? Sure he got beat and beat bad but he's still beat better opposition then those two combined. I wouldn't complain with having Beyer over Lacy, it's close, but I would really like to hear explanations on Mkrtchian and Chanet. Especially Chanet.

When you ask me about ranking someone...I'm sitting here argueing a point on right now...not overall.

No way in hell do I feel that Chanet or Mkrwho? are better than Lacy...but Lacy aint fighting right now...so how do you factor him in. He hasn't made a squeek since the beating & those are the guys that have just so recently fought.

I have Lacy above Chanet & behind Mkrtchian because he took Chanet's spot. Dawson hasnt fought the world...but he's been coming up & he's been just as impressive as all the rest. Basically here's how I'd have it:

1: Joe Calzaghe
2: Mikkel Kessler
3: Markus Beyer
4: Chad Dawson
5: Mger Mkrtchian
6: Jeff Lacy
7: Jackson Chanet
8: Danny Green
9: Brian Magee
10: Anthony Mundine

[Hulk]

Lacy beats em all cept Calzaghe IMO. Bring em on, remember Robin Reid? Wasn't he top 25?

[tuckwopat]

Well, If he's not good then that doesn't say much for Joe's win. So I guess Joe is still untested and won't fight real opponents. Is that the way it works?
