    I just want to know if there is somebody who thinks that Lacy is going to win ans why?

    Anyway I think is going to be a good comeback fight for Taylor, but maybe im wrong ,,, i think Lacy is shot as a fighter , the injuries and his fight with Calzague took so much from him as a fighter . I remember watching his fights before Calzague and thinking this kid got some great future. And suddenly it all goes downhill, definitely a crossroad fight for both fighters, but i think is clear that Taylor have way more rounds left in him than Lacy.Anyway this November has been a good month for the sport with more good fights still to come.

    No way Taylor will make him look silly all night possibly TKO him if not a very wide UD.

    Honestly If Lacy can tighten up his defense he stands a great chance of winning, Taylor's game is so flawed it's funny. He no longer has the advantage of always being the bigger, stronger guy and Lacy might could very well rock him.

    Can't see Lacy doing anything here TBH. Aside from a lucky shot with Taylor leaning in. He went life and death with Epi Mendoza ffs.

    I put a vbet on Lacy . I dont think he can win, but I thought to take the bet . As far as my bet is concerened ; hopefully Taylor will back himself into the ropes like he did against Wright. Here , Lacy can do some work:huh

    I dont think he can do it.

    Both are known to fade, and JT's durability is questionable but he would really have to drop the ball to lose to this version of Lacy.

    But there have been upsets all year, this wouldnt be a massive one.

    I dont even give him that. He is a shell of his former self. I dont know what it is. He is still relatively young, he should still have it physically. I dont know if it is the physical injuries or if it is mental, but whatever it is, he has gone to hell and it is sad to see.


    He doesnt even have his power anymore. He is so slow and pushes his punches. He struggled with Manfredo. He would have easily KTFO of that character pre calzaghe. I dont get what is up with him. Ive never seen anyone slip that drastically.


    He is a good dude, it sucks to see that happen to him. I know his team is just taking this for one last payday. I hope he doesnt get seriously hurt and can comeup with a decent performance for what may be his final fight.
