Thats exactly what I thought when he fought Shieka and he was in for a real fight that night...
Pemberton owns Sheika, maybe he finds a way to give Lacy an even tougher time than Omar did???
I think Lacy learned a lesson in the Sheika fight about just standing in and exchanging with a guy who is all heart.....I look for him to be more methodical with Pemberton and stop him late,10-12 maybe sooner.He showed a much improved and more used jab against Reid which only makes him more dangerous.This guy is it I think in 3-5 years he will be a household name,Like RJJ he will be superstar.
mad props to Lacy for already finding another opponent. This guy deserves all the respect in the world for fighting often and against good opposition. Very ironic how he's the guy who's replacing Calzaghe as number one in the division. Lacy = fights all the time and against good opposition while Calzaghe = ocassionally bust up a chump opponent

yep thats what i think. pemberton is an excellant tuneup for lacy.
lacy is improving every fight. i hope he stretches this one out and shows he's learning more boxing skills.
and if calzaghe keeps on wimping out lets see lacy against kessler. in U.S.
Lacy could out-gun Pemeberton, who is a pretty big bomber himself...but...it would bode more well for Lacy if he could outbox Pemberton, taming him and using his boxing skills to do so, because he may use these skills to make the Calzaghe fight easier for him.
