    Was it the loss to Taylor or the "win" over Griffin? :-(

    me also. Lacy has shown that he is just not that high on the top fighter list.

    WTF!! RJJ's no calzaghe victim. He was 4-5yrs shot before Calzaghe even faced him! Not to mention a month from his 40th birthday.

    It was pretty disgraceful of Calzaghe to even fight Jones at that point in his career.

    Without question Lacey is a calzaghe victim. He was in his 'prime' and had enough balls to leave the states and fight calzaghe. It was a grave mistake, I knew Lacey had no chance. I actually had JC beating Lacey via late stoppage.

    I personally couldn't be happier seeing lame as Roid Jones Jr. going the route of pathetic should have retired by now boxer. The guy never showed any class in or outside of the ring during his heyday, and also avoided all the major competition at 168 and 175. He ran around running his mouth, but never backed it up against the best available fighters. (Kind of remind you of a certain comebacking Welterweight)?

    To see Roid become a pathetic laughingstock is one of the most deserved fall from grace situation's that we will ever see. It puts a little grin on my face everytime I see that Roid is continuing on.

    You know the most ironic thing is that Roid became a safety first, no risk fighter after what happened to McCleland. He avoided the tough fights and never went in for the kill on overmatched opponents so that he wouldn't have to risk getting hit cleanly. Now with what he is doing at this age is more detrimental to his health than anything he could have done 10 years ago.

    All I meant was that they both lost to him.

    Of course Lacy took a far worse beating, but truth be told Roy got pretty mangled also. If Calzaghe had tried harder, he could have gotten Roy out of there.

    i don't know why anyone cares who jones fights anymore to be honest.

    Does anyone have real info on if Roy is actually broke or not. I just find that hard to believe.
