If Lacy Knocked Roy out this Saturday night? Would it be more shocking than the Tarver or Johnson KO's?
I know given that it would be his 3rd KO loss it maybe wouldn't be as shocking but given how shot to shit Lacy has looked you could agree it would be more so.
I know Roy still has all the tools to beat Lacy well and really should but I just get this sense that Lacy knows all he needs is one good punch to and get himself back. Plus I think the new weight really helps Lacy. I smell a possible upset..
What you think?
I'd be surprised in the sense that I don't rate Lacy as highly as either Tarver or Johnson, especially at the times when they knocked Roy out, and despite his age I feel like Jones is still a better fighter than Lacy. Youth could play a factor, I'm sure, but I think Roy has shown me he has the ability now to go into survival mode in a way he never knew during his prime.
Shocked? No. Never be shocked if a guy who has been put to sleep twice takes a third nap. Slightly surprised? Yeah, if Lacy puts Roy down I'd be surprised.
I wouldn't be shocked at all, I really don't understand why some would view this as an upset. RJJ is well past it and it wouldn't surprise me if he got K.O'd.
Nah...Roy's smelled the canvas a few times now. I think he'll win because I always thought Lacy was way overrated, but I wont put it past him to catch Roy and hurt him.
