    I think some people exaggerate how hyped up Lacy was. I remember his fight with Calzaghe was 50/50, and due in large part to people in America feeling Calzaghe had never been tested, moreso than how good Lacy was.

    well who else stopped Holmes like that ever? And I think Spinks was an ATG. Moving up and beating an established champ at heavy from 175..

    THe loss to Douglas was expected the way Mike was coming in out of shape and disregarding his head movement, but in his prime Mike was great. Almost unbeatable. His prime was short though, like 2 -3 years at the most.
