    Was anyone surprised by Roy Jones's punch resistance ? It might be just me but these days i half expect every clean shot that lands on Roy to hurt him, but Lacy landed some clean shots on Roy, and around his chin area a couple of times but he never looked hurt which is kind of strange because i believe Calzaghe did hurt him.

    I know people will say Lacy is shot but it does not change the fact Jones took some tuff shots pretty well.

    Calzaghe might have hurt him but Roy took his punches well and kept trying to fire back, he just ran out of gas and had no answers as the fight went. Calzaghe was too active for him at that stage of his career.

    Not at all. Lacy is new to 175, and ain't done any damage to any opponent since Tsypko. He never landed fully flush on RJ either, at least not to the chin. RJ rolled most of his shots even if they did touch his jaw.

    Yes, it seems better than the Tarver and Johnson fights would suggest.

    Have you ever typed your name into Google Images? I suggest you do so and look at the first 2 pictures that come up. And then I suggest you cry when you see them side by side.

    Tommy I suggest you come back here and post when you are an adult. Kids don't need to be on here discussing Boxing.

    Why does it matter? Your argument has always been that a strong gust of wind will knock him out. You predicted Omar Sheika to knock him out without asking the same question of Sheika that you do of Lacy.
