JERMAIN TAYLOR versus JEFF LACY in JULY?

[Kball15]

The opponents discussed for former middleweight champ Jermain Taylor's fall fight have ranged from Felix Trinidad to Ricardo Mayorga to Brian Vera of "The Contender." Now add ex-super middleweight titlist Jeff Lacy -- Taylor's 2000 U.S. Olympic teammate -- to the mix. "We've made them an offer," Taylor promoter Lou DiBella told ESPN.com. "They have not accepted yet, so we'll see." Golden Boy's David Itskowitch added, "We're negotiating the fight. Lou made an offer, and we're fine-tuning it, but it's a fight we're interested in." Whether it happens or not, Lacy plans to fight in July. Golden Boy is talking to ESPN2 about a date.

Lacy is nothing, Taylor will obliterate him.

You read the article wrong. Taylor is interested in fighting Lacy but either way Lacy will be fighting in July before the bout, possibly on ESPN.

Nice, this is a good bounce back for Taylor.

isnt it ironic how a few years back people were saying that lacy was a beast, the tyson is a supermiddleweight body, and no one could touch him. and now he's basically a name on the record

it is what it is

This would be a good fight one that is very interesting. Tough fight for either guy. When they fought in the Olympics they were good friends but even they knew one day they'd face each other.

Jermain Taylor wins easy!

Joe Calzaghe ruined Jeff Lacy
