No disrespect to JL but I don’t think that he at the moment is in a position too chose weather he wants to fight Mundine, Kessler or another top smw boxer.

It would also be to risky to come back against so strong opponents and it could ruin his career but of course also be a great booster if he wins, which I doubt.

IMO he should find a guy at the Omar Sheika level. Last time he struggled against Omar so a rematch might be a good fight for him.

[Swice]

Lacy will not come back the same fighter after what Calzaghe did to him.
Mark my words

Good point. I hope he learns from it and doesn't dwell on it.

[chrisbird13]

lacy will never be the same again. Its not like he had the fight and got knocked out bya lucky punch, or lost more orunds than he won. He didn't win a single round and never looked like he was going to, completely and utterly outclassed!

That's because he was all Hype

As i said above ... Joe beat the Fighter outta Lacy same as Lewis did Tyson.

Seen it Sooooo many times with fighters who get a bad beating like that before.
They are NEVER the same again.

You're probably right but to Jeff's credit he was very gracious after taking his beating and seemed as if he really wanted to get better and learn from the experience. Unlike Tyson who was trying to rub Lewis' face while saying he loves him and his kids

Lacy was too green

Tyson was WAAAAY past his prime

Jeff will come back, he'll have ring rust but he needed to take that time to heal and address the shortcomings in his fighting style. They need to put him in with someone who is easy to hit and has a decent chin so he can get comfortable and get rounds in too

[CityOfGod]

He will be under enormous pressure to perform and look good.

Calzaghe landed over a 1000 punches cleanly in their fight.

Jeff took his hiding well and made no excuses - but he should avoid someone with fast hands i would definitely suggest if i was picking his next corpse.

Too green? More than 250 fights and at the age of 28 years old. He should be at his peak now.

[Memphis]

I think he will come back fine, he got it all wrong, his corner were incompitant and he got battered by a superb fighter. Its the ones who cant understand why they have lost that lose the edge, I think Lacy understands just fine

Time will tell.

GREAT!!!! I can stop crediting Calzaghe for that win then

He still ducking Johnson

How the hell can he be ducking Johnson?? Please tell me yes a guy who is avoiding you offers you to fight him, please how does that work?? Calzaghe went looking for Johnson not the other way round.

Allan Green vs. Jeff Lacy anyone?
