10 Years Ago Today - Calzaghe battered Lacy

[mikeeod]

I was on the ESPN forum at that time, and I was one of the idiots that overrated Lacy and fell for the hype. Joe boxed circles around Lacy and definitely took his heart/confidence from him that night. Kessler was Joe's most impressive win, however. That was a very good fight and I was surprised and impressed to see Joe go to that next level that Kessler couldn't match.

Yes that was a fight fight with Kessler because he was having trouble for the first 5 rounds and adjusted and out boxed Mikkel with ease which is a sign of a quality fighter. Joe hurt Kessler with a body shot too.

Calzaghe was something because he could not even really punch his hands were so bad yet still beat everyone one. I have never seen a fighter that has his style and say what want about the divsion being weak so was Hopkins,Haglers and Mozons eras to all there best wins came from guys coming up.

it was 10 years ago so I can't fully remember the exact reason it happened but is was either... one, we changed servers and we lost about a year or 2 worth of posts as the backup wasn't complete or two, we changed the software of the forum and lost one or 2 years worth of posts in the conversion and it was too late to fix by the time it was realised.
