Lacy Vs Miranda who would win?

[MlLkMan]

Miranda, did you see Lacy get rocked in his last fight?

I go with Lacy, though the question is more interesting the more I think about it.

My first thought is to say that Lacy is a big SM and Miranda isn't an especially big MW, but then Miranda is arguably a harder-hitting MW than Lacy is a SM.

I think probably the telling factor would be the chins. Lacy can be wobbled but can take it, Miranda has shown in two of his last three fights (Eastman/Abraham, natch) that he can be quite (relatively) easily hurt.

This is honestly a toss-up. Between Lacy's good chin and his bad defense, though, I'd have to say it's up to him to bring it.

I think maybe Lacy's being a little underrated these days. He's not THAT bad.

The fact that he even SURVIVED 12 rounds of what Calzaghe did is proof that he's not complete crap. But his aura of strength is kinda in ruins now, so people are naturally gonna say Miranda would crucify him, because Miranda still seems pretty sturdy.

Miranda, Lacy is mentally **** up...

Miranda is not a big middleweight? Damn, and all this time I respected your negitive opinions about Miranda.
FYI- Miranda walks around at 190-200lbs (in between fights)
For his last fight he weighed in at 161lbs. Before he went to bed that night he weighed 178lbs. He was up to 180lbs 4 hours before the fight. In the locker room he weighed in at 178lbs wearing jeans and flip flops. The HBO staff took off 4lbs and called it an offical 174lbs.

If Miranda fought Lacy, I would not be surprised if Miranda was the larger guy in the ring. Does this change your opinion??

I thought the same thing about that comment.

I thought you were a decent poster until I saw you say "". Complete penises say ""

As for Pantera2000, FYI I don't make "negative" comments about Miranda, I make reserved comments. Have you ever seen me say he's a complete load of crap? No? Oh, you must be talking **** then. Sorry if I'm not saying he's the best middleweight on the planet right now, maybe the fact that he's still relatively untested as a boxer for various different reasons, is limited technically, has power but questionable power and a slightly suspect chin isn't making me go overboard on him but also isn't making me condemn him? No? Oh well, you know best.

As for his weight, I don't give a good ****. I was talking about his PHYSICAL FRAME. The guy may weigh a lot but is wiry, no?

Hatton walks around at 200(250?) lb's, that doesn't make him a big JWW.
