    ESB…..think about your post right now and then place it in the normal everyday ESB mentality algorithm then tell me how much the average opinion held on this forum impressing you.

    Both beat Jeff Lacy easy, just USA version of Bute hype product(Bute was even better than Lacy)

    esb was smaller then
    although still partizan
    but there was more ****ysis frpm posters then instead of what i am reading now

    i like debate and not trolling and as long as posters ****yse fighters/styles/ why there man beats the other man .then i might disagree but i like that they put there reasoning behind the prediction.

    Overstood…..

    I enjoyed a good theoretical debate comparing and contrasting styles and match ups, it doesn't happen much anymore on this site and I think its just a product of today's climate….the lowest of the low can access and build an account on numerous sites and kids have grown lazy as h ell. Years ago when you posted on a forum you made your post worth the effort it took to get online via dial up.

    Lacy ? Ward would box his head off total shut out would beat him worse than Joe .lacy would be staggering round the ring in the late rnd like a drunken sailor. Froch would grind down lacy for a bloody late rnd stoppage. Lacy was a bully a on top fighter when someone took it to him he didn't know what to do.Lacy should not be mentioned in the same sentence as froch or ward.

    yeah its interesting that lacy, for all his brief stint as ibf titlist, has arguably never yet fought someone elite...despite being at the end of his career now!

    in all this time, hes never got into the position of facing either ward, froch or Kessler, nermind the flock of new SMW champions around recently. You'd think he would have faced one of them by now.

    all in all, highly protected.

    I'd expect Ward to beat him easy by shutting his offense down and stopping him from landing anything meaningful.

    Froch and Lacy would be a war that would be over by the 6th at the latest, and Froch would outlast him.

    Lacy's division was stacked with uber talent, Wilder's was full of bums.
    Lacy fought better fighters in his first 10 fight than Wilder has in his whole career.

    He beats both of them. Froch easily. Just use movement and a few angles and Froch is neutralized. Ward would be a good fight. I'd have to favor Ward though.

    This thread is mental and pointless. Ward and Froch would both have Ko'd Lacy pretty easily. Doesn't mean either is better than Calzaghe though.

    Ward seems to avoid left hooks and jabs very well. But he gets hit with the right hand. Rodriguez and Paul Smith both were able to land right hands. Alot of Ward's opponents always are able to get a right hand in. Sakio Bika did also. I wonder how Ward would handle one of those looping over hand rights that Pascal throws?
