I never really thought Jeff Lacy was that good of a fighter personally, but i do admire his courage and guts. But lets bet honest here he was almost KO'ed by a bum in his last fight, and has been struggling with the likes of Peter Manfredo.
I have gave Jeff Lacy two chances to show me something but he hasn't shown me anything, except for heart and guts but he has always had that. I think Jeff Lacy gets an embarrassing beating in this fight, but both fighters are good people outside the ring. So i wish both of em the best of luck in this fight im not rooting for anyone.
I guess you being an amatuer fighter things like injuries dont affect your career, let alone a torn rotator cuff.. I mean hell what do you need that for right??
Dont BS around either, you know damn well Mendoza is one dimensional, but that one dimension is 1 punch KO power, look at his % I think it speaks for itself.. Not to mention all the fouling he got away with
Injury or no injury that wasn't my point JT the fact is whether its the injury or not, he clearly isn't the same fighter. And his punch resistance looks very shaky to me.
Epifanio Mendoza i'll admit i had only seen 2 of his fights when he upset Rubin Williams, and when he lost to Chad Dawson. But he is a shot fighter now and he is a gatekeeper for upcoming prospects.
If Jeff Lacy was at the elite level which he clearly isn't anymore, he should have handled Mendoza with ease. And you talk about Mendoza's punching power but if you actually look at his record, the only real name he has stopped was Rubin Williams. No other names on his record are worth mentioning.
JT even you have to admit Jeff Lacy is a shot fighter. He couldn't avoid any of Mendoza's punches and lets remember how limited Mendoza actually is. I gave Jeff Lacy praise in my last post like i said he is very gutsy fighter, but that doesn't change the fact he is a shot fighter physically and mentally. And Jermain Taylor should give Jeff Lacy a beating, based on Jeff Lacy's recent performances.
Mendoza hits incredibly hard. You are taking away credit where you shouldn't, this is a boxrec moment for you. It honestly sounds like haven't watched the Mendoza/Lacy fight.

Listen to how hard the punch at 2:20 is.
For every story told that divides us, I believe there are a thousand untold that unite us.
