        Seen as Lacy had never been knocked-out and can take teriffic punishment id say no. Remember years ago Roy was knocking out tomato cans, Roy never knocked out elite fighters even a dead at the weight Toney or a Hopkins so green he lost to a bum.

          Jones has always been a speed + awkward angles + snap type of puncher, once he lost some his speed he lost some of his snap. His legs aren't as fresh either which contributes to some of his loss of power.

            Dude you don't know what the hell your talking about. This is just why I hate haters. They just augment the truth. There full of BS. Hopkins lost the first fight of his career, @ 190 Then he lost 30 pounds and won 25 or so straight fights, lost to Roy, then won 20 or so more straight then lost ot Jermaine. He only lost cause he was fighting to heavy. And he lost to Roy because Roy was better than he could ever dream of being. His power was strong enough to keep a heavy weight off of him. And put Virgil Hill out with a body shot. Then 1st round KO againt Montel, who beat Toney twice. Thats what it is player. Your a Bum.

              Lacy has a real sturdy chin

                Whats weird about Jones is that usually the first thing to go in a fighter is speed. Well, the man still has great handspeed and instead the power has diminished a tad, although he has decent power still. Jones looked good last night even if it was against Lacy and I am interested in RJJ/Green. HBO probably won't pick it up but I think they should, its gonna be big in the OZ.

                    they say the last thing to go on a fighter is his punch. imo rjj's punch is still there but he never really had a massive punch anyways.

                    when rjj was in his prime the majority of his KO's came from his speed, from punches that the other guy never even saw coming. the thing is that his speed has now diminshed and because of that we dont seeso many KD's or KO's. also the legs are one of the ways that power is generated and rjj doesn't really plant his feet and throw and since the weight loss his legs haven't looked the same.
