How Lacy "turned out?"
From what i no of Lacy, he's only 30 years old, he's got 22 wins and only 1 loss. That loss being to arguably the best Supermiddleweight fighter in the world.
So excuse me for thinking he's far from finished and we have no idea how he "turns out."
Lacy will be fighting again, and he'll be back in training come the new year, most likely in Undisputed in San Diego. The long layoff is accountable to the horrible shoulder injury and probably to some extent due to the horrible beating Calzaghe gave him.
I for one feel a match up between Lacy and Taylor could be very interesting. The winner may receive the redemption needed to relaunch careers which have both faltered after their biggest respective tests. Taylor is considerably better in the skill, speed and versatility depts. but one can argue that Lacy has big advantages in power, chin and perhaps stamina as we have seen JT fade in late rounds (although that too could be attributed to making weight.)
All in all i guess all that im trying to say is that both fighters are not finished, they have lost one fight a piece. in addition each showed considerable heart in their respective losses, with Lacy blatantly refusing to be stopped and Taylor deciding to slug it out with the bigger stronger Pavlik.
Their losses have actually made me gain respect for them.
