    "No complaints. I gave it a good go and it was pretty even, but it was Joe's heavier punches that dragged the fight his way more and more until I could take no more. I was beaten by the better fighter." - Richie Woodhall

    "I tried my best, but he was too good for me. He's heavy-handed, quick-handed and him being a southpaw just makes it difficult. It will take a very big effort for someone to beat him." - Charles Brewer

    "I've never been hit so hard so often." - Byron Mitchell
    considering the opposition these guys faced, thats not saying a whole lot.

      Eubank had faced Nigel Benn.

      Woodhall had faced Roy Jones Jr.

      Brewer had faced Antwun Echols.

      Mitchell had faced Frankie Liles.


      All known as big punchers..

          Hearns started at 147 and didn't really do enough at SMW to judge if his power carried up that well, although it was good enough to stun Hagler at MW so I'll stand by it. The others punch comfortably harder than Lacy, and properly with it.
          Generally I would agree about the body build but fact is fact Tyson Hit hard as **** and so does Peter just to name a couple of guys with that build however generally in the lower weight classes this is true like that guy Robert Allen whom Hopkins beat 3 times.....either way Lacy is IMO from what I have ezperienced so far as a boxing fan the Hardest hitting SMW ever and could end up being the Hardest hitting Natural LHW too someday.

            He did, it was a close fight. Woodhall got Bronze at the Olympics, he fought Jones Jr in the semi's and gave him a good fight.

              jones was never considered a "power" puncher though, he was more of a volume puncher

                Roy Jones Jr was a monster power-puncher at the start of his career.. but a pitter-patter single-potshotter at the end of his career.

                    Roy Jones in his prime woulda made Lacy look foolish. Tarver may give him trouble because he is a tall rangy southpaw.

                      I can't rule that out until we see what he's like if/when he learns how to deliver his shots properly. People like Benn and McLellan could ice decent fighters with one shot which Lacy hasn't shown he can do yet.
