    Yes, the fight is on November 15th, in Nashville.
    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

    If it's yellow, let it mellow... If it's brown, invite me 'round...

    I'm rooting for Lacy in this one, the odds are stacked against him now and he's been written off by everybody it seems.

    Still me and JT Rock will cheer him on.

    There's no American fighter with a bigger heart than Jeff Lacy so I hope he can dig deep and cause an upset here.

    If Lacy uses him jab and lets his hands go like he did pre Calzaghe i think it will be a good fight. With Lacys heart and Taylors lack of workrate it will be a good fight.

    I still think Taylor will dec Lacy but Jeffs power will keep Jermaine respectful and not too gung ho.

    You are correct, dont forget AMAT he is a big Lacy fan too.. No bigger heart and courage than Jeff Lacy he will be my favorite fighter till he decides to hang them up.. Hopefully he can put his punches together like he did the beginning of the Mendoza fight.. Not making excuses but mendoza hit Lacy on the back of the head at least 20x in that fight as well as Lacy got ripped off of a Knockdown when he throttled mendoza and only the ropes held him up but the ref didnt call it.. Epi is a big time puncher with a 90%+ KO rating in his wins and Jeff dosent exactly have a Mayweather type defense, but he gutted one out.. I am rooting for him hopefully he stays competitive and can present a problem with his power and grit
