    Honestly, who can beat Lacy?

    Calzaghe? Doubt it. Kessler? It'd be fun to see. Tarver? I think Jeff would catch him. Glen Johnson? It'd be a hell of a fight. Taylor? Jeff would work more.

    I think at this point in time Jeff is very close to unbeatable and is in the transition point from being "the next big thing" to actually being THE guy in boxing.

    He said he wants Tarver or Calzaghe next and I'm so glad he did, he needs a signature win to really launch himself into the mainstream sports media ala Roy Jones, Mike Tyson, Oscar De La Hoya, Bernard Hopkins (aka a guy they talk about on Sportscenter everytime he fights). Beating Calzaghe probably wouldn't do that for him, but beating Tarver or Jermaine Taylor might.

    What do you guys think?

    I think you should stop being a chicken Jeff, and fight Calzaghe. He has a date and a venue for you in Feb, so it's there if you want it. You'll lose respect even from your own fans if you don't fight him, Jeff.

      I would give Lacy a kiss if he would fight Winky and knock his boring ass out. I think he proves too much for Winky.

      I also feel like Bernard is too smart for Winky. So I think Bhop would beat him.

          I could beat you...

          So could Hopkins and possibly Kessler or Tarver.

            At this point, I honestly think that nobody has a chance. The guy is just too hungry,strong,determined, and intimidating. I think Tarver would be an interesting fight though and I am sure Tarver will give him a tough fight but Jeff wins on pure strength and agression. I am also positive that he will murder Calzaghe worse than he did reid.

              "Iron" Mike would make him look normal.

                  A physically strong fighter with a good jab would give him fits. Unfortunately, Pemberton wasn't strong enough to keep Lacy off of him.

                  Put Lacy in with Tarver or Taylor, and I think they could. Granted Taylor fights at 160, however he won't be able to make that weight in a year or so.

                  I don't think there's a super middleweight that can beat him, including Calzaghe.
