Is losing to a journeyman bad? Hell yes.

Especially when the scorecards are 118-110, 117-111, and 116-112 (and you are fighting in Florida right where you live).

When you are the "name" fighter, the "hometown" fighter, and you lose at home to a journeyman, 10 rounds to 2, 9 rounds to 3, and 8 rounds to 4 on the 3 scorecards, then you are shot all to hell.
This fight is what worries me as well. Losing to a journeymen by a WIDE margin is a terrible sign. However, I can only imagine that Lacy was not up for the fight and had a very off night in addition to him being a shell of his former self, as we have witnessed for a while now.
