The thing is...at 168lbs...lately...titles & positions have changed hands & spots more than Royal changes his screen names...but one thing is for sure...opposition wise Lacy has shown more heart & fought better fighters than any of the fighters that are currently ranked in the top 10.

Yes...that does include Kessler.

I'd have Lacy ranked either 5th or 6th. Just under Beyer, Chanet, & Mkrtchian.

The thing about boxing...you don't just toss a man off of the map because he lost to the best in the world...you just move him down a spot or two & wait for him to make another move...that's what makes champions.

Most boxing fans don't let bias & stupidity rule their decisions.

I like Kessler...but he's unproven & he's on fought two or three mentionable names...Lacy fought the best in the world & quite a few others...not to mention...he's done a bit of globetrotting...Lacy will be just fine.

The verdicts still out on my boy Kess...but Lacy sure as shat aint the closed case that the Danish try to make him out to be.
