    It was like the Thriller in Manilla, except all one way. :-(

    I still say it should've been stopped in the 7th.

    I thought Lacy deserved the benefit of the doubt through perhaps round 9, at which point his corner had an obligation to call a halt to the beating. The last three rounds are painful to watch.

    Lacy got ruined that night, and I'll never have any respect for Dan Birmingham for that reason. Who knows how much better Lacy might have done if Dan had done his job. Too bad his ego got in the way.
