    The Sound of Silence

    The blood faucet that became Jeff Lacy’s face that horrible night in Manchester stopped leaking months ago. The cuts have healed. The swelling has subsided. To see him now, one would never know of the punishment he endured against Joe Calzaghe. But the real scars run deep.

    A lesser man would likely have quit that night, but Jeff Lacy didn’t. No, he stood in there like a man in a storm and he took those shots one after the other, round after round. It ended up being a frightful beating and the question many ask now is this: Can Jeff Lacy make it back? The one man who can answer that question is Lacy himself, but for now, he’s not saying much.

          Good piece!

          On Lacy's psyche: I dunno that it also works in boxing, but it does with respect to many facets in life. I refer to the advice on learning to ride bicycles:

          Hop back on after each fall. If you don't, you may never want to ride a bike again.

            Corrales got better numbnuts, lol. A loss to Mayweather does not ruin one's career, especially when Mayweather ends up being one of the top 3 greatest fighters OF ALL TIME.
