    Name the Hype job that had u fooled?

    Jeff Lacy
    I really thought Jeff Lacy was going to have longevity. The way he ran through his competition had me fooled. I was so excited about the Calzaghe fight, I couldn't believe my eyes. What fighter had you fooled?

    I thought Lucian Bute was better than he was.

      I did as well, and probably picked him over Froch (can't remember).

              I was pretty sold on David Price being a viable contender in the hw division. He looked really solid against B level competition and I thought he was gonna steamroll Thompson; boy was I ****in' wrong about that one!

                Give the guy a break. he isn't a hypejob... Just people convinced themselves that he was some world beater who walk past a guy like Gonzalez.

                    I second that. Always will be supporting my hometown lad Pricey, but he didn't perform anywhere near to the level I expected of him against Thompson.
