Final Predictions: Championship Bout: Jeff Lacy vs. Joe Calzaghe

[DiegoFuego]

Yep.. and also Lacy, Winky and a few others .

And I'm a fan of Sturm because I know him .

well I suppose that's a good reason. I'm an Etienne fan myself and he's accomplished, well...nothing in his career. But I met him.

I can see this one getting inot the latter rounds. I think Lacy will be hyper out of the gates, and have to chill out. He'll settle down towards the 3rd or 4th round, and start wearing Calzaghe down. Then in the championship rounds, the wear and tear of fighting a younger, stronger fighter will take its toll on Joe. I say Lacy by TKO in round 11. I could see Calzaghe not answering the bell late, like Hatton-Tszyu. I really hope Lacy wins, but I think it will be a very good fight while it lasts. That's my prediction, but whoever posted the analogy to Hagler-Hearns could very well be right. Can't wait...

I envision a 12 round war where both fighters have huge moments, most are predicting a KO but I believe both men are tough as **** and will both see the final bell.

Calzaghe's early points lead will be just enough to hang on with a close but clear UD. (this prediction was made up with 60% heart and 40% brains)

Who the **** knows-this is a u pickem in all honesty.

aside from obvious reasons, one of the main reasons why lacy will win: hes hungry. he wants to do more, he wants to unify in contrast to cal***gy who just wants to fight bums all his career.

lacy by TKO.

[BBKing]

Lacy by KO.

[EXIGE]

Manny if Joe breaks his hand at all, it will be during the fight..

With that said, a Calzaghe UD no excuses. Like Scap said, close but clear too. Perhaps 3 points in it.

lacy by TKO.

I think you will find that a man who has been waiting near his whole life for a career defining fight is/will be the more hungrier (sp).

cal***gy is complacent with fighting bums. and hes gonna act like hes fighting a bum.

lacy wants to win and to unify and to be the best.

cal***gy just wants to survive and keep his joke of a title.

cal***gy has had MANY opportunities to have big fights his whole career and turned them all down. he hasnt been waiting for one, hes afraid of one.

[RAESAAD]

Lacy by brutal 9th round KO.

Hey Evil Saint...Joe "has had MANY opportunities to have big fights his whole career and turned them all down"...elaborate if you would please...I look forward to making you look ******, LOVE SCAP.

Remember folks when your as dumb as Evil Saint you need to post with caution otherwise you just look like a piece of ****.
