Jeff Lacy vs. Otis Griffin result

[blegit]

He has heart and soul, I don't know who you've been watching, unfortunately he never took advantage of his athletic gifts, he would throw haymakers when his handspeed actually was half decent, and those haymakers would lessen the impact of his punches because any half decent opponent could half block his shots. He never established a jab or cross, he just loaded up on hooks.

Couldn't have said it better Taeth. Lacy has freakish power(his punch power measured more than everyone on the 2000 Olympic team) and good speed he just doesn't want to use boxing fundamentals. He only wants to go for a one or two punch knockout. He throws all loaded punches. And yes, his heart and soul are gone. I think Calzaghe did that. Lacy realizes that in deepwater he really has no plan B.

I agree with both of you. I always enjoyed watching his fights.
