    Taking money completely out of the equation, i think it's the right decision that he quits the game. He has been deeply depressed with his loss, injury and criticsm of late and if the mind isn't right, then your just gonna get flattened at some point. I thought Taylor might have had some scars in the Pavlik rematch, but he was neck and neck for the full 12 rounds.

    Wheras Lacy just looked crude and a class below the others out there at the moment. Sure he'd be a great opponent for Edison Miranda or someone of that nature, but a skilled operator would take him apart.

    I just hope now Mick Hennessy ignores Dibella's calls now, as Lou ignored his last week.

    Two Majority Decisions and a hideous UD against Manfredo will do that to you.

    Besides, he can feel the sting of the Calzaghe ass whippin' and knows a fight with Jermain Taylor would just be a rehash. I know I wouldn't do it if I watched my last four fights and saw what we saw.

    This is one I would think of as " Fav.match ups" maybe a couple of years ago but Man,Taylor has the retained style too exploit Lacy's deterioration badly Imo.Mendoza had him wrecked more than a couple of times.

    Plus, it's not going to help Lacy that Tennessee judges seem to favor Taylor.

    Every judge seems to favour Taylor.

    Lacy is really going to have to improve to beat Taylor

    Taylor is going to come in wanting to redeem himself; so Lacy better be up for it because this won't be Peter Manfredo fighting in spurts and watching the clock tick. This is a must win for Taylor imo what with the 2 losses to Kelly and his lackluster fights with Spinks and Ouma. He needs a good win over Lacy; and the same could be said of Jeff as well; but I question his desire at this point. I got Taylor by ko. I don't even think this post made any sense; you guys just don't know the pain I'm in right now
