He never dropped Jermain Taylor legitmately, from my memory it was a shot to the shoulder. Jeff Lacy wasn't ever elite even in his prime IMO, but now hes been reduced to a journeyman status.

Gift decisions against Epifanio Mendoza, Otis Griffin, further prove this point. And you say Jeff Lacy still has some major power in his left hand, but whens the last time Jeff Lacy's stopped anyone ?

His last stoppage win was in 2005 against Scott Pemberton since that, hes never come close to stopping any opponent, even C+ fighters. Personally i think this fight is a farce.

Im a big RJJ fan but i don't see what this is achieving. RJJ is clearly shot and Jeff Lacy has been totally ruined. And it seems like both fighters are just fighting now just for the sake of fighting. Both need to retire A.S.A.P.
