    Calzaghe vs. Lacy is my shout.

    JC tried so, so hard to get Jeff out of there, and he couldn't.

    But what he accomplished in the effort was gorgeous brutality at its best. He was all over Lacy like white on rice.

    It was quite a while after that fight that I saw it on vid. Frankly I was stunned at what a total one-sited beating that was. Seriously, did lacy do any better than any of us could have? LOL
    Ruined Lacy, he was mediocre at best after that drubbing. Washed up jones jr literaly beat him with his eyes closed and Jeff retired after losing to 23-19-7 journeyman dhafir smith.

    I was never on the Celestin Caballero band wagon when his hype train was out of control a few years ago but I was stunned by the way he handled a very capable contender named Daud Yordan on B.A.D. a couple years ago.

    It was probably the most thorough decision win schooling I've ever seen behind Calzaghe Lacy. Yordan literally lost every second of that fight aside from a ten second window when he briefly put Caballero on his heels with two good shots in one of the later rounds.

    It wasn't just that Caballero was hammering Yordan with about 80 percent of the punches he was throwing. It was also the fact that he was making Yordan miss all of his punches by about four or five feet.

    IMO, a decision, no matter how onesided, can never be as decisive as a clean knockout.

    And all the "experts" were predicting a ko or worse for Lacy. I give JC HUGE props for this win.
