Jeff Lacy Retiring - Taylor Fight Is Off!

[Steffer]

I really hate this LacyMania II - anyone is saying: "before he was so and so good and could KO anyone" - no, he has always been very limited - just be professional and look at his fights vs. Thompson, Sheika and Vanderpool - he really WAS NOT good as a pro. Just like his international amateur career. Average - like it or not.

But he was black, American and the sole hope in SMW in The States - so he was built up to be good.

Anyone who saw Lacy being slaughtered against Gaidarbek Gaidarbekov in the Olympics would never have contributed to the stupid Lacymania - at best Lacy had heart and lately became a nice guy - but skills at world level, not!!!!

Gaidarbek Gaidarbekov did to Lacy what Calzaghe had to use 12 rounds of boxing to do in just 7 minutes. Lacy was outboxed and saved by mercy.
