Was Lacy really that bad??

[jangeorg]

I will love to see Lacy against Kessler,but im pretty sure its illegal to show murder on TV

Oh that's right....Jeff would love to smack someone around with a record more padded than his own

Kessler has fought 3 guys in the Ring top 5 in his last 4 fight. the next fight is another the Ring top 5 fighter. How many the Ring top 5 fighters has Lacy met?

I love Lacy to death but I admit that if he was to fight Kessler next he would get outboxed.....What I have read and saw on a few youtube clips I havent seen Kessler on the inside....jangeorg you know your boy better than us, is he a finesse guy only or is he a tough enough to fight a messy inside fight, cause I feel that is Jeff's shot if he can get on the inside he usually breaks his opponent up..

It will be hard for any fighter to get inside Kessler,they have to get beyond the best jab in SMW.Kessler has never has to fight a messy inside fight,so who knows,but i think he can do it

Don't understand how on the back of this "win" everyone in the division beats the S*** out of Lacy

Mundine
Green
Froch

What Lacy showed in the first two rounds would give him a chance with those guys

Ha Ha - A chance.

Let me put this spin on what you said: What Lacy showed in the other 8 rounds - is what 'those guys' would absolutely eat alive !

He was staggering around like a drunk! by a cut, under-prepared Tsypko.

Well maybe you're right

But considering Mundine has been sparked by Sven (powder-puff) Ottke

Green was all over the shop and nearly stopped against his sparring partner

And Froch (i know, i know, he has a granite chin) would get hit and have to absorb the Lacy bombs

Gives Lacy a good chance, as I said. It's not like any of them are Calzaghe, or even remotely close to him, is it?

I hear what your saying fella - but IMO some of those fighters out there ARE very close to Calzaghe.

Joe has, apart from Lacy, fought 2 middle weights recently and is planning on fighting a further 2 more in Manfredo & Taylor.

There are hardly genuine 168 threats like those guys (mundine aside).

Back to LAcy - i like him, but he has now found his level .... B-
