Edison Miranda vs Jeff Lacy

2 bums ass dudes who gives a fuck. Somebody going to KOed if they fight.

Jeff Lacy....an im a Miranda fan, but he is overrated....

Just a guess on my part but I don't think Miranda's going to be the same fighter after that beating at the hands of Pavlik. I hate to be the pessimist because Miranda's story is so heartbreaking and I would love to see him succeed..but he's moving up in weight and will be facing even stronger punchers. One good shot would be enough to rattle Edison, not just physically but mentally. But hey I could be wrong and he may just find his groove at this higher weight. Best of luck to him.

In his last fight lacy was destroying vitali in the first 3 rounds, i remember he hit that russian with a right hand that moved him back over 6 feet. Only then after lacy hurt his shoulder did he start to loose it. If lacy can recover from his injury and get over the joe lose then maybe he could win another title. I think if he gets back to full fitness and is also fit in his mind he'll ko miranda worse than pavlik did. :boxing:

Lacy would KO Miranda. I should say the Lacy before the Calzaghe fight would KO Miranda... I say this because I too think Lacy was damaged in the Calzaghe fight. Both physically and psychologically. The good thing about the Rotator Cuff injury is that it forced him to take a long break. A break that he probably needed. Even then an 80% Jeff Lacy should be able to beat Miranda imo.

Remember Miranda will be stronger, faster and have a better chin at 168 because he doesn't have to dehydrate down to 160.

if lacy isn't psycholigically damaged by the loss to calzaghe, and if he completely recovers from his injury, i think he should beat miranda. otherwise, miranda can take lacy out by stoppage. That's just it, I don't think Lacy has mentally recovered ever since the loss to Calzaghe. His fight on the Wright/Quartey undercard against Vitali Tsypko was a prime example of that. He seemed sluggish and reluctant to throw. I know this had a lot to do with his torn rotator cuff but I'm talking in the first round, prior to the tear. It seems Calzaghe's schooling of Lacy had a significant impact on his confidence, but I hope I'm wrong because I like Lacy a lot and want to see him fighting again. If he was mentally prepared for Miranda, then I think he could take him but if he wasn't 100% confident in his ability Miranda would eat him alive.

if lacy isn't psycholigically damaged by the loss to calzaghe, and if he completely recovers from his injury, i think he should beat miranda. otherwise, miranda can take lacy out by stoppage.

Omar Hits hard as Hell? When the hell did Omar hit hard as hell...don't know what guy your watching but Omar is just another name for youngsters who are up and coming to see how far they can go. Omar is good competition but not a serious contender these days, just a spring board.

Miranda would eat Lacy's remains for breakfast.

This would be an interesting fight and one that would no doubt provide some good action. Im pretty sure this fight wouldn't go the distance with both men being more offense oriented. Im just worried about Lacy's shoulder injury thats going to be hard to overcome for him not just physically, but mentally. With that looming over Lacy's head and if they were to fight in the near future I would pick Miranda by KO.

Lacy would KO Miranda.

yeah but you can't remove the damn nerve or build that much muscle over it to protect it from shutting out the blood flowing through it. That makes you see black hence the reason they call it a black out when you get popped in the button. No matter how big Lacy's neck is, that is not going to stop from a punch tapping his jaw.

WTF????? miranda doesn't have a solid chin??? lol he took a billion bombs from pavlik he would have gotten up 10 times .he took every punch abraham threw at him. abraham and pavlik are punchers while slapzaghe is a slapper ! Lacy is much stronger than Pavlik, i think Lacy would slip his right hand and counter with a left hook kabbam couple of time of that it would be KO. Miranda is abit slow too Guys where do you see that Lacy has a solid chin? Lacy was known to not have a solid chin in the amateurs and has been buzzed in the pros by the likes of Omar Sheika and almost knocked out by the welsh man, which coincidentally do not have the punching power Miranda has. Though at the same time we have not seen Miranda at this weight class so it would be difficult to judge how powerful Miranda really is in this division. It would be an interesting match. well you could train to have stronger chin there is jaw and neck exercise for that and you could see his neck

Ive hardly seen either, but i would lean towards lacy as miranda seems very limited.

Even if Lacy isn't a super boxer, he can outbox Miranda. I mean seriously, Ricardo Mayorga is the only person off the top of my head that has less boxing skill than Edison Miranda. This fight would be action packed, but short, because neither man plays any defense at all. he outpointed abraham.

Ok one decent punch lol. He caught pavlik with about 4-5 right hands in a row and it didnt even affect him, so how would he beat jeff with one punch. And about jeff being a superboxer, i know he aint a superboxer but at least he was a champion unlike miranda. Even if Lacy isn't a super boxer, he can outbox Miranda.

no but he can stop him with the first decent punch. Ok one decent punch lol.
