Considered better than they were?
Ah, and of course you were the one who considered Lacy to bit a shítty hypejob before the Calzaghe fight?
I guess if Joe came out of retirement and píssed over Andre Ward that would make Ward a hypejob as well. It's easily to judge a fighter in retrospect. Lacy's shít, but you have Joe Calzaghe to thank for that....if Lacy hadn't fought Joe, where do you think he'd be today, honest question?
lacy never deserved the hype he got. Who did he beat? He never beat anyone as good as kessler that's for sure.
Furthermore, even if lacy was as good as he was hyped to be (the next mike tyson!? lol) styles make fights. Lacy has the perfect style for calzaghe to exploit to the fullest, which joe did wonderfully.
Ward on the other hand is a versatile fighter, he's not one dimensional like Lacy. He can fight inside or outside, he can box, he can be physical, etc.
No comparison. Lacy cant hold Ward's jockstrap.Comment

I'm saying your logic is flawed. You're saying Lacy is better than Ward because everyone picked Lacy to beat calzaghe, when likely 75% of the people who were picking lacy to win never even seen calzaghe fight before and/or had no idea who he was.

Only sensible comment in this entire ****** thread.Comment

Im pretty sure he had plenty of chances to fight some of the elite fighters but he didn't want it . Ol hopkins , old jones jr the only decent fighter was m.kessler who a.ward beat up on 1st real test.Comment

Why couldn't Ward beat Kessler without all the headbutts? Why couldn't Ward beat Kessler away from his hometown and hometown ref that let him clinch and headbutt? Ward's a farce of a boxer, he cheats to win and people who root for cheaters are as scummy as the people who root for Margarito with his plaster-wraps.Comment

Side note- i think cals greatness is way overrated considering who he has fought. I mean his best win was lacy and kessler. Both fighters have gone on to do nothing. I mean look at Roy, his best wins were probably hopkins and toney but they only look good because what both went on to accomplish after those loses. Take them off roys resume and it looks like crap. That what cals resume is too me.Comment
