Lacy on Antonio Tarver:
"First of all I'm sure any of those guys at heavyweight would find it disrespectful that he's calling them out. What has he done other than beat Roy Jones? If Roy Jones Jr doesn't give him the opportunity, he wouldn't have the name he has now. The only reason he's sitting in this position is because of Roy and now he doesn't even want to give Glen Johnson, another guy who beat him, another shot either. He can't say he don't want to give me a shot because he feels I'm not ready. If that's the case why don't he take the easy fight? If he thinks they feeding me to the wolves, take the fight and don't worry about the guy you're going to get in there to beat up on. I would never worry about that. If it was me in his position and I felt there was a young champion coming up from a lower weight class and I felt I could make millions against someone I could knock out, do you think I would walk away from the easy fight?"
"I'll knock him out. He won't go ten rounds."
"Tarver can't handle pressure and he can't fight backing up. The pressure that I put on a fighter and the strength that I have, and keep in mind I would be a lot stronger at light heavyweight. I don't think he would last eight rounds in the ring with me!"
"I'm willing to go up a weight class, knock Tarver out and then come back down to fight Calzaghe if I have to. It doesn't matter to me how it plays out, I just want to fight the best."
