    Sounds like a pro GBP/Pro-Oscar agenda of some type.

    Has Teddy Atlas come on board, too? Only a matter of time.

    Cliff Rold has picked the wrong guy in almost every single big fight lately. Don't bet against this guy being wrong again; he's on a roll!:deal

    Teddy Atlas watch your back!:yikes

    not sure what he see`s

    if lacy wins it will have nothing to do with picking on current form ,as lacy has got the benefit 3 times in a row on close descions.

    He rates Taylor's power as equal to that of Lacy, at B+, and his defence at B compared to C+ for Lacy and he still picks Lacy by stoppage. His argument seems to be that Taylor is no Calzaghe. Very strange. It does explain why Lacy is still ranked at No. 5 in the Ring rankings, though.

    Well first off, thats a laugh, Lacy couldn't even crack Manfredo, Mendoza or Tsypko, he wasn't even close.

    Second, his chin is of glass, Epi had him do the chicken dance more than once.. Taylor would surely end it early on that night.

    Third, Lacy is the slowest SMW in history, I've never seen someone as slow as him, and he does not move in with a jab, he just throws himself in with bad balance.

    Taylor will rip him apart with that jab and end him with something BIG.

    And THIS is why the Ring Magazine is the Bible of Boxing, with the likes of Cliff Rold, Doug Fischer, Barry McGuigan and Steve Farhood deciding who is good and who isn't...:deal
