    Default Lacy signs up with Golden Boy 5 fight deal

    I just read that Jeff Lacy has signed up with Golden Boy Promotions on a 5 fight contract deal.
    Lacy may fight on the undercard of Hatton/Floyd. (very strong possibility)
    Lacy is down to 180 after being reported to have weighed over 200 pounds a few months ago.

    If it's true then it's good news.

    I think Lacy would do well to be plopped in the middle of that camp with all that experience.

    You've read right Dannny.

    The 1st thing their gonna do is get him a new trainer, nothing against Dan cause he know his stuff but he & Lacy just don't go well IMO.
    Also Lacy needs to get it thru his thick head that he needs to box a little more and use his jab, throw some right hands and they all don't need to be fucken KO power punches.

    I have said it for a long long time, the best thing lacy could do is go with roach, his style is perfect for freddy, roach loves to train guys like lacy and turns them into damn fine fighters...

    Roach loves golden boy, golden boy loves roach - lac is with golden boy... SMW just got a lil bit better

    Good luck to him. On his day he's one of the most exciting fighters around. Even if he gets back to 80% of what he was BJC he'll be a great addition to 168/175.

    Hmm, with a 30 inch waist I very much doubt it, he is only little for super middle, he weighed a pound under the limit for the Calzaghe match and weighed less than 8lbs over on the night

    I've heard on other sites Lacy could be on the undercard of the Hatton V Mayweather fight

    I for one hope so, would be good to see him again live after his fight with Joe, just hope he puts up a better display of his talents this time around

    Dont need to, the tale of the taspe on his fights tells me he has a very small waist, someone that small doesnt balloon to over 30 or 40 lbs over weight, he makes supermiddle with ease, regularly coming in well under the limit and never putting that much weight on at fight night.

    He just isnt that big, he could make middle I reckon and he would have a better chance of success there

    Lacy is done. Lacy has always been a one-dimensional fighter. And I think his recent injury has robbed him of that one dimension. Unless Lacy proves other wise, I see him as a journeyman fighter.

    Disagree wholly, he does rely on the power to much but he's not completely one dimensional. On his best days he's a very good fighter, like the Robin Reid fight. He was a top amateur, he has skill but he isn't all right around the edges.

    Still, the return of my favorite fighter in boxing is very good news to hear. The Mayweather - Hatton undercard would be GREAT.

    You and me both, cant wait for his return . he used to have a real decent jab early on but he kind of started looking to go home in the 3rd round instead of letting the KO come to him..

    I dont get this whole 1 dimension bullshit VD keeps spinning, even if his left isint as powerful he has dynamite in his right too again an under 30yr old kid with 1 loss and he is a journeyman I'll be more than glad to own your azz again for a Bet when he comes back
