I think coz Lacy was hyped so much. Lacy to me didnt prove himself, he was just a heavy puncher to me. I picked joe to beat him soundly by UD. But the thing is i dont think we can judge calzaghe so much on this one fight because he only did what he was meant to do and that is outbox a slugger. Its like the old saying goes, boxers always beat sluggers. Not always true but in cases like this it was bound to be true. I thought joe had the speed advantage, he could bang and that lacy was in for a bad night. Keywords to be mentioned with lacy are power, chin and heart but skill IMO doesnt go there. If joe didnt expose lacy i think somebody else would of. Power punchers can only last so long on their power until someone figures them out.
