    What now for LACY?

    After building a career on being a menacing knock-out merchant, and all round bad-ass. Does LACY have the 'pride' to be humbled, and put asside his (alround) defeat, and carry on.
    He's now damaged goods (i know, it's the sign of a great boxer to come back from defeat....but when you're whole career is built around invincibilty, it's hard to make a convincing comeback....to the public...and yourself)
    Or is he too 'one-note' to come back?

    Lacy is obvously tough enough to be where he was last night, but he now has to take the strength and build on it by learning some boxing skills. My feeling is he will be back somewhere down the road....

      Lacy has to stay in US and fight handpicked opponent like Scott Pemberton

        Lacy was a tad exposed. But he's still young and has great power, he can come back from this and still turn out to have a great career. But maybe he should move up or down in weight, there isnt much left to do in this relatively dead divsion. Lacy vs Vargas at 160??? How does that sound??? Can Lacy handle that drop in weight?

          Lacy is an sensational fighter and i`d pick him over 99% of super middleweights. he is sensational, but please, jeff Lcy, don`t go near Calaghe, and Tarver, Hopkins, please don`t go near Calzaghe, he is too good, he`ll ruin all your legacys, Calzaghe, he`s out of this world, he is something else. Please, Tarver avoid this super natural occurance like a plague!

            I'm not trying to piss anyone off, or seem two faced but I said from the beginning I have a feeling someone is going to crack the code of Lacy. I like Lacy and was impressed but I could tell by watching him that he has some flaws. For one, he doesn't move his head enough. He could still comeback, he should team up with Buddy McGirt or a Joe Goossen.

                    I think he should change his name to Jeff "left behind" Lacy, and start a career as a bench presser.
