He'll get a couple of decent wins under his belt. Maybe against Manfredo, or someone like that... He'll get beaten badly again next time he chooses to step it up to the elite level again.
Hes recovering from a pretty serious injury. Time will tell how he recovers from the Lacying he recieved.
His pressure would give Mikkel a good fight, though you'd have to pick Mikkel to win clear. If Taylor steps in with Lacy, he gets KTFO, but this won't happen because Pavlik is going to KTFO Taylor. Lacy/Pavlik though will be a good fight, I'd still pick Lacy because Pavlik will have issue's driving him back and Lacy has an easy target to land his best on and outmuscle. Lacy's a good fighter, hope he recovers.
I hope he comes back strong...he's still top 4 or 5 at 168. But with his injury and beating at the hands of Joe C, I'm not sure.
I really want to see him come back, he has some entertaining fights left in him. He should get a title back one day, maybe at lightheavy.
Tearing ligaments in the shoulder especially the rotator cuff is a very serious injury.I have experienced it playing rugby and after the operation i was out for 10mnths.. Hopefully for Lacy he reaches a 100% recovery as i feel he probably hasnt just yet.. A shoulder injury like that can ruin a career in any sport let alone a sport wear your main power starts at the shoulders.
and your money punch is the left hand:| it's a shame becuase his destruction of reid was horrible his power was great he was limted but he was so dangerous it didnt matter. i hope he stays at super mid cause he is barely 5'9...as much as we love montell griffin,kelvin davis and sam langford he aint going to help him being that small in light heavy.
Lacys a though kid and hill be back. Right now, I would favord him over Manfredo, Miranda, Green, so his got a bright future.
