      Jeff Lacy was a real hype job though.

      Prior to his fight with Calzaghe, he hadn't faced anyone good and he had a really hard fight with unheralded Omar Sheika, a guy that Calzaghe stopped several years before.

      The writing was on the wall.

      Errol Spence has shown really good qualities that Lacy never showed prior to his Calzaghe fight. Qualities that would give Kell Brook problems. Kell Brook can't fight on the inside, he holds for dear life when someone gets close to him and it worked particularly well against Porter because Porter was smaller. Spence has a height and reach on him.

        Well Ponomarev will get the paws put on him and then you will have to test that theory out for yourself Kell. Should be one hell of a fight.

            If you go back and read all the comments on here in those days, none said anything about Lacy and one dimensional. The hype was over the ******** top.

                Fair comment. That's what I like about this stage of fighters' careers, the race to the top.

                  so any fighter who fans are excited about is a hype job?

                      This talk is good to build the fight, but Spence is for real. I think Spence and Kell are 2 of the 3 best welterweights in the world atm.
