    lacys trainer was terrible, he should have worked with the jab, then threw combinations to the body. instead of throwing one punch that misses by 5 feet to the head.

      lacy doesn't have a jab though, ne really needs to work on his all round boxing skills this tiem around if he wants to get better. He will though he'll be back and this will make him better for it.

        lacy should've worked behind a jab, gone to the body all night long, he should've thrown punches at Calzaghe's shoulders instead of his head, and most important he should've let his hands go and go all out in a fight like that.

        he did no work on the inside even when his hands were free, he followed Calzaghe without cutting off the ring. i guess it doesn't matter if he were to cut off the ring cause he never threw a punch!

        i think he froze up and got too much into his head. if he had a plan he took a **** on it thats for sure.........

        BUT Calzaghe fought the perfect fight, lighting quick combos, good foot work, tied up at the right times, he never let Lacy get anything off because he was too busy fending off Calzaghe.

        this fight was the best domination over another fighter that i've seen, better than Winky's shut out over Tito.....

            His trainer was telling him to throw the jab, shorten up his punches and throw combinations. Lacy is the one who didn't do it.

                lacy is only human and is not perfect.....credit to him for going over there and for being a warrior....lacy will be back!

                I second that, Calzaghe would have never come to the states. Lacy will be back!!

                  he still would have lost, but Lacy did not look right at all, credit joe for most of that, but Lacy HAS looked better. he will be back, ala Barrera as a boxer puncher, i think he has the dedication to pull it off!!!
