As for Lacy I think he is still #2 to Calzaghe, but you have to put Kessler in front of him because he has the '0' and no humilation... but I suspect Kessler might even struggle with Beyer, let alone Lacy or Calzaghe.

I agree that Lacy is still rankable...but not over Kess...& yes...it's got to be due to the loss...but I think that Kess is going to surprise a lot more people than you think.
Not that I am disagreeing just to disagree...he's only been tested twice by a very worthy opponent...but I do not by anymeans think that he will have issues with Beyer...I've been getting as much of Beyer as I can lately...& I truly believe that Beyer will put up a good fight...but Kess will figure him out.
I could be wrong...because I have seen more of Kess than Beyer.
Again...I like Beyer...but I think that he might be past his best...even his better.
Calzaghe would probably starch Kess...easily Beyer.
I still say that all of the criticism & dropping of Lacy is wrong...he's still got what it takes...& he did just fight the best in the world...no matter what anyone says.
