I think the Calzaghe fight may also have had some bearing on Lacy no longer being the same
I don't think it affected him that bad.

Obviously his confidence would of took a hit but from watching his first fight back after Calzaghe, he looked like the same Jeff Lacy for four rounds but after that it went down hill for him because of his shoulder.
