Jones still has some good fights in him. On his day he's capable of beating any of the top fighters in around that division. Lacy is shot to pieces though, there really is nothing to see here. Move along, people, move along. This isn't the fight you're looking for.
Why not, Roy loves to fight and he still has a lot of fans who want to see him in the ring, especially in Florida. I know he's over the hill but he has enough left to beat 2nd tiers, like Jeff Lacy is these days. Let the man grab some more cash before he retires, at any rate this fight is irrelevant for boxing. And for Jeff Lacy it's a great opportunity to redeem himself somewhat after his disappointing career, who knows maybe this could even turn out to be competitive. At any rate it's better than Roy fighting at MMA...
Jones knows who he can beat and he fights them. Good pick for Roy. He will win a decision against Lacy.
Roy never fought the best and top guys when he could. I think he cannot give up the limelight, but I never had the feeling he enjoyed fighting.
If he were to knock Jones out he could, although rather undeserved, get himself back in the mix at 168 or even earn himself a decent payday at 175. But he will be exposed by anyone decent.
I have a feeling Lacy KOs jones in this fight. He has been off after the calzaghe beating. Big name, try to revive his career somewhat?
jones should win by stoppage,hope lacy packs it in, then jones no doubt fights twice more against lesser fighters gets tittle shot at end of year froch beats him in nottingham and i hope jones then retires ,i think jones wants a tittle shot that much
