Chins, defence and stamina are pretty even but Lacy is faster and hits harder. Pavlik definitely felt a few of Miranda's shots so Lacy KO if he's anything like he was pre-Calzaghe.
Isnt Lacy out of the game for a while because of his shoulder? Kinda sad if you ask me.
Anyways, I wouldve picked a healthy Lacy over Pavlik anyday. Lacy has a ton of heart, can take a lot of punishment, and hits hard as hell.

I don't know. It'll be a KO either way. If Lacy can not get pushed back, and keep the fight in close, he can land a big left hook. Pavlik throws a long right hand, and lots of them, and is sometimes sloppy with it. Lots of counter opportunities. It may take a better trainer than Birmingham to get the win out of Lacy, but Lacy can do it. Lacy is tougher than people give him credit for.
Pavlik comes with a high volume of punches and a lot of pressure. Plus it seems most of his punches come with a lot of pop in them. Lacy is faster and could pack a punch harder than Miranda's, but he leaves himself open and I think Pavlik would pressure him all night and wear him down like he did Miranda and finish him in the late rounds. Pavlik is open to punches, but he has a good chin and it doesnt seem to change what his gameplan is. Pavlik KO 9.
