Last night was a marvelous performance from Joe Calzaghe. I've seen him fight several times, but his performance last night was special. I am a big Jeff Lacy fan, and I hope he can come back, but he was outclassed last night. I haven't been talking much trash coming into this fight, because I knew Joe had a chance. However, I did pick Lacy by KO in 11, so I'm here to say... I was wrong. I wish Calzaghe the best if he moves up to 175, and I think he could beat anyone there, with the exception of Tarver. I told Scap I would personally congratulate him if Calzaghe won, because his analysis was very logical, and his analysis was actually 100% accurate. So congratulations, Joe Calzaghe, Calzaghe fans, and last, but not least, Scap... good call man. So where do you all see Calzaghe going from here? I'd say he'll fight Clinton Woods next. How about "Left Hook"? He was exposed last night, and I ate my words. I had said that I thought he was a better all around boxer than people thought, and he showed nothing to back my theory. I do hope Jeff can improve his skills, and come back strong, but I wonder what's next...
Cogratulations, Calzaghe fans....

Yes I thought Jeff Lacy was a product of AMAZING matchmaking but I didnt think he would lose every round, I didnt expect Joe to fight a perfect defensive fight either.
The only thing I got right was the UD.
Much appreciated though Hitman!Comment

I hope Lacy does bounce back. There is no point in hating on the guy just because he was outboxed and outclassed. He was gracious in his post fight comments and gave Calzaghe full credit.Comment
