    sadly, this might be true. He ballooned up in weight after the Calzaghe fight, now he CANT train so he is going to morph into James Toney.

      He has a bad shoulder. Nothing wrong with his legs and he can still exhibit some self-control and not eat himself completely out of shape. I give him a ton of respect though. This type of injury doesn't just happen, it builds up over time. Knowing that he still went on with the fight. I also liked the heart he showed by not quiting vs. Calzaghe.

      But when I read how depressed he got after the Calzaghe loss I knew he was in trouble. The greats don't let that **** kill them inside, they use it to come back stronger and better.

          Gotta give the guy props for trying to fight with that injury.I have a rotator cuff tear that im rehabing without surgery.When i first tore it if i just moved it in the wrong position it felt like getting stabbed in the shoulder with a ice pick.I cant even imagine the pain if i had tried to throw a punch when i first tore it.

              Hey guys he fought with a torn rotater cuff. The same injury that made Big Klit quit on his stool. Shows you how tough he is.
              as i said before LACY WAS NEVER THE SAME AFTER CALZAGHE

                I can't believe some of you guys are ready to right him off all together! WTF, why doesn't someone just shoot him and get it over with? Either you guys are very pessimistic or have a very short attension span; I don't know which is worse.

                    I was wrong, it WAS his shoulder.

                    Raesaad will be a happy camper.
                    LOL........well it helps explain why he stopped using his jab and left entirely.He did look really good the first 2 rounds so I won't go as hard on him as I had been......He does continue to show a ton of heart either way.

                      You have to admit he looked impressive in the first two rounds, he looked like he was going to blow him out of the water within 5 rounds.. but after the third where he hurt his shoulder that's when it all fell apart.

                      The Jeff Lacy of the first two rounds we saw is the REAL Jeff Lacy.
