Watching only on my lap-top trough a semi-good stream, I'll have to go with Lazcano, who was competitive against a better opponent. That observation is magnified by the fact that Malinaggi's hand was broken (and he had a bad hair day), so the odds for looking better was in N'dou's favour IMO.
haha. Let's compare the two.
Lovemore Ndou- NEVER been stopped, including Miguel Cotto
Juan Lazcano - stopped by GOLDEN JOHNSON
"So what of Juan Lazcano? Does he bring anything to the table Hatton will have any problems with? To be fair, as a tune-up opponent, Lazcano is a decent choice. He is a name, has been in with some good men himself, and he is still young enough at 32. There are two main problems with the Californian. One, he will have been inactive for well over a year when he tangles with Hatton, and two, the best names he has fought he has lost to. Lazcano was out-pointed by Vivian Harris (the man Witter iced so impressively in his last fight) in his last contest, last February, and he was also beaten by Hatton KO victim Jose Luis Castillo, back in 2004. The names Harris and Castillo are the best ones on Lazcano's resume. What chance then, does the 32-year-old have against Hatton?"
