    Todays very latest articles on Calzaghe/Lacy (newspapers)

    Interesting points what Bunce and Warren bring up and I suppose it's true - Who has Lacy beaten compared to Eubank, prime Reid, Woodhall, Mitchell and even Charles Brewer??

    But my prediction is not changing - Joe has looked a shadow of his former self in his last three fights, is a natural brawler, and it's too late to learn defence! So Lacy will get him out of there in three rounds or less.

    The big question is,does Lacy truly hit as hard as he is made out to hit?

    I never even saw Robin Reid wobbled,and apparently he never even got wobbled in all his amateur fights,so that does prove that Lacy can ****. But was Reids chin really so great? I never saw him hit by a puncher as hard as they could punch,Wharton couldnt land his left hook clean. Its all terribly confusing.

      yes lacy does really hit hard. i read when he was an up and comer that his left hook was around 1200 psi. thats not as much as tyson but that destroys any other competition.

          strongisland that is a blatant ****ing lie. Jeff's left hook is a good punch but it's not in the league of the likes of Joe Fraziers. I've seen the way Lacy throws it, according to him he only earned the nickname because he threw a lot of left hooks. Make no mistake that he's a hard puncher, but he isn't a kockout artist. Imagine what would happen to him if he tried to trade with Nigel Benn.

            "Interesting points what Bunce and Warren bring up and I suppose it's true - Who has Lacy beaten compared to Eubank, prime Reid, Woodhall, Mitchell and even Charles Brewer??"

            Last time I checked Lacy was a relatively young fighter. That really is a ridiculous statement...and more mindless propaganda. In five years, that will be a punchline.

                Lacy is almost 29! Morales is 29 and he's washed up as ****.

                  29 is old for a sportsman.

                  You reach your physical peak some time between the age of 22 and 28, usually 25 or 26 if you've been training since pre-teens or early teens.
