I doubt that Lacy was never the same after Calzaghe, the truth is he was never in that class to begin with. He'd gone life or death in several fights leading up to it, Rubin Williams, Omar Sheika and Donnell Wiggins all had him in huge trouble, those were life and death fights and quite entertaining if you actually watch them. I can see how the odds would've been close and why it was such a hyped up fight against Calzaghe, but I'd bet there were a good bunch of people who knew boxing and made serious money on that affair.
