    I don't know if you're joking, but Lacy these days looks like Evander Holyfield in the ring. As elTerrible says, the guy just can't put his punches together anymore. I have to wonder if that injury and surgery that he had a few years ago has affected his ability to fight.

    lacy was a beast at one time and then he took the fight with calzaghe way too soon in his career and now his not the same fighter i dont see him winning but he has a great chin and will go the full 12 rounds to lose on points

    he was a beast to be true, and has a great chin, but we'll never know how good he REALLY was after that. it's just one of those career ending loses

    Whoever wins is the one who sucks less at the moment cause one just sucks and is kinda past prime and one is just old as hell. Lacy won't KO jones cause he sux and Jones won't KO him cause he has ZERO killr instinct anymore. Prediction:BORING jones decision.

    Roy will stop Lacy. This will resemble the Sheika fight. Lacy basically fights with one arm now and doesn't have the workrate to trouble Jones. This is a mismatch.

    True but those fights were also at 168 and he arguably lost to Epi Mendoza and also looked like dog shits vs Manfredo and Tsypko and just barely beat Otis ****in Griffin in his last fight.......

    Sad to say but Jeff is done. The Roy that fought Calzaghe should destroy him pretty easily.

    its hard to see him winning based on his performances in big fights no doubt, Roy though he has looked better since the last tarver fight, he still has a very low work rate then again Manfredo had Zero work rate and the fight ended up being a snoozer.

    But I simply say that Lacy will have opportunitys with Jones, The question is does lacy have it in him to make something in this fight happens, or is this just his last payday and he is comming in soley for that reason alone?

    if he beats Jones I wont be shocked and this has nothing to do with the chin of jones it has more to do with the age and his declined reflexes.

    I don't know, Lacy fought a Journeyman called Epifanio Mendoza and won a gift decision. I don't think he has it anymore.

    Roy is playing games...

    he wants to beat Lacy and he will probably get the KO and he thinks that will wash away from his Calzaghe loss :p
