Absolutely none of those points relate to Lacy,and MAB did not get hit upside the head 1,006 times and did not get/want a rematch straight away,it's been 3 years.( I mean no disrespect to Lacy fans,just pointing out that an MAB analogy does not apply)
Yeah but you can@t compare MAB with Lacy. People want to see the re-match because they "know" MAB's quality and believe that it must have been an off night. Beside's MAB is a intelligent fighter/boxer and his tactics will change in a re-match. Lacy is a limited fighter who had relied on his strength to blast out opponents and his supreme self-confidence. I really don't see how he can change his style.
Also to the earlier post, while Gatti was pull out by his corner, there were a lot of us who were shouting that LAcy's corner should have pulled him out. He gained nothing from the last few rounds, only the chance of being KOed
