Calzaghe - Lacy debate

Calzaghe advantages - Hes a better inside fighter than Lacy. He has fast, tight hooks on the inside and his key to victory would be infighting. Calzaghe would land first and stun Lacy enough to tame him from throwing bombs. Calzaghe has said in the past that squat, come forward fighters would be easiest to beat for him because he can pick them off with fast combinations. Lacy is a squat, come forward fighter. People say he "slaps" and so doesnt have power, but Calzaghes "slaps" with the palm are more dangerous than you think, if he hits the jaws it stuns, and puts load on the neck. Theres a good reason why that is forbidden. When asked about his punching technique, Calzaghe said he does it for speed, and to overwhelm his opponents. But he said if you watch most of his knockouts, he throws alot of punches as fast as he can that look like slaps but he will throw a power shot or two in the flurry too. So I checked this out and he is right, the punches that look like slaps are to get the fighter covering up or defending himself and there isnt much power behind them and then he throws his power shots normally as a counter shot as the opponent opens up to try and throw a punch back at him. Calzaghe disadvantages - When he fought well, he used to come down to the late 150s/early 160s before building back up before the fight. But lately it is a real struggle for him to weigh as low as 170 on the morning of the weigh in and so he does not have the great power he used to have in the 1990s because hes cutting weight instead of using what was his secret tactic for power which was building it back up. Lacy advantages - He has a longer reach than Calzaghe, a two inch reach advantage and likes that room to get more momentum into his shots. Lacy needs to use his jab, because if you see Lacys jab it hits as hard as a power shot when he uses it. Jeff is very tenacious and actually increases his pressure throughout the fight. If your favoring Lacy it should be primarily because he consistently improves pressure and delivers more consistent power shots throughout the fight. Lacy isnt a one punch knockout artist, but he is very heavy handed which will probably test Calzaghes heart more than ever. Lacy disadvantages - Lacy is not a young prospect, hes 29 years old. Hes old. He doesnt have the great advantage in youth that everybody is claiming and is probably already past his peak. The very peak of his powers was probably the Robin Reid fight and Calzaghe has twice as much experience. He gets hit more than he should but his chin is solid. Some of his punches are a little wide at times. I hope Jeff wins I like him. But I do have my doubts. I just have to favor Calzaghe, Im afraid.
