Could Lacy win a title-fight against Kessler

[Gandalf]

Lacy has a big heart so you never know, i hope he comes back stronger the more contenders for the title the better.

He has a big heart and a big punch, but unfortunately little defense and no boxing skills whatsoever. Joe didn't just beat him--he exposed him as being over-hyped and mediocre.

If Lacy is overhyped and mediocre then Calzaghe's victory means nothing.

I don't think he is overhyped or mediocre, I think he just took the fight a.) to early, b.) to lightly and c.) HE FROZE BIGTIME

Still got huge talent imo - just remains to be seen how mcuh his confidence has been damaged

i would go with a mixture of a) and c). i refuse to take any credit away from joe because i believe on that form he would have beaten lacy no matter if lacy was at his aggressive best...but the nature of the beatdown was surely also a consequence of lacy just not being able to turn it on quite as per unsual come fight night.....
