    Calzaghe and Warren needed a little delay because of the broken hand... They now want Lacy to sign the contract for a Feb fight, but Gary Shaw is throwing up all sorts of excuses as to why the fight won't happen now.

    All they've got to do is sign the contract.

    And all this "Lacy's career on hold" talk is confusing to me... Lacy's last load of fights have been against men Calzaghe beat 4, 5, 6yrs ago. Lacy isn't exactly fighting top teir opponents at the moment.

    I just get tired of all the (I think unfair) critisism Joe Calzaghe receives on this website... (And other boxing websites).

      dont worry about lacy not fighting cal***gy. what you should be worried about is cal***gy not fighting ANYONE.

      really, why would anyone want to fight this fight dodging, injury faking, skilless, creditless, ****** of cal***gy?

        He can move up fight Lacy then fight Calzaghe at 175 or 168 later. What's the problem? So he should just fight nobodies while waiting on Joe?

          That's the thing though... He doesn't have to wait for Calzaghe... Calzaghe will be ready to fight in Feb/Mar Which is about the time Lacy's next fight fill be anyway.

            To be honest... I also think Calzaghe would prefer the fight at 175lbs (Weight making issues) - but not if the belts aren't up for grabs.

                .
                Right after the Pemberton fight Lacy said he would try to get Calzaghe, if not he would go after Tarver. Where did you hear he didn't want to sign to fight Calzaghe?

                  maybe tarver should stop making an ass of himself by calling out vitali and tyson and start calling out logical fights like with cal***gy, lacy, woods, adamek, or erdei.

                    I think Tarver would avoid lacy, that may be why he's calling out heavyweights but then again they can inflict even more damage so Im not so sure.

                      Lacy knows that Tarver hasn't looked to great in his last couple of fights. He won his last few fights but didn't look spectacular. If Lacy applies the pressure he KOs Tarver. Tarver doesn't do well when backing up like Lacy said.
