Lacy was A-Level all the way upto the first bell of his fight with calzaghe. Didnt hear many people calling lacy then!! Only when Joe destroyed him did people slag of Lacy.

same thing happened with Hatton, Kostya Tzsyu was a living legend and rick wouldnt last past 4-5 rounds but after hatton beat him into submission all he got was 'yeah but kostya is washed up and is past his best'

Its kinda funny when you think back actually, how people who dont want to admit they were wrong about something always change their minds so they dont have to admit it.
