Have watched his last 2 fights and am not impressed. He has a good chin but **** defense and just solely relies on his power. I can see his getting a total schooling at some point, similar to Calzaghe-Lacy. What do other people think?
Is James Kirkland just the next Jeff Lacy waiting to happen?

No he's better then Lacy. He's more relentless and a more effective pressure fighter.
He's doing fine. He had an impressive win against Julio. I think he has a chance to be a great fighter. Honestly if Margarito can get to Williams, i have no doubts that Kirkland can.Comment

Jeff Lacy never fought a Joel Julio-type before a Calzaghe.
Lacy is highly used as an example to downplay US top prospects but that fact is Lacy was 16-0 with wins over nobodies...I never hyped up Lacy, I don't hype a fighter up unless he's got a good win over a good opponent...I honestly think Kirklands defense will get him beat up as soon as he fights an A class fighter....I'm expecting Dzinziruk to beat Kirkland.
I voted for the wrong one, I meant to choose Yes he will win a world title but he will get schooled eventually/Last edited by Kevin Jesus; 04-18-2009, 01:52 PM.Comment
