A show of hands - who knew Lacy was an overrated overhyped rookie before the JC fight

[ICB]

A lot of people who picked Lacy had seen the Vanderpool fight, the Sheika fight, the Reid, on and on.

He was on ESPN 2 coming up, of course people had seen Lacy fight.

Boxing writers, knowledgeable fans, dumb fans, etc. All across the board. All seen him fight numerous times no matter how hard you find that to believe Ice and still picked him.

At the same time they'd also seen Calzaghe look kind of crappy against some fairly average fighters.

I've seen almost every Joe Calzaghe fight and he has hardly ever struggled, only against awkward fighters like David Starie, Kabary Salem, Sakio Bika, Robin Reid, but thats because he allowed them to because he fights too much on the inside at times. And allows fighters to rough him up on the inside. But look at Joe Calzaghe's best performances against Charles Brewer, Chris Eubank, etc. Its obvious IMO skill wise Joe Calzaghe is way above Jeff Lacy.

These so called experts also do talk alot of crap sometimes, and i have my own opinion. And i think people do allow there opinion to get changed very easily listening to the hype and these so called experts, rather than going with there gut instinct and there own opinion.
