Damn Pump I just posted this....what did you erase it?Anyway this will be a good time......

I'd love to go to this card if I could. I hope Lacy fights somebody with an ounce of credibility and HBO would televise it. There's no PPV the week before, so there's an opportunity. Any rumors?Comment

I have not heard but I think they should set him up with a guy like Joe Spina.......a big mouth whom Lacy could crush....who is undefeated and whom Lacy could build some confidence against.Originally posted by cupcrazy01Comment

Spina is fighting Manfredo Jr. on Oct.14 on ESPN2, he wouldn't be available.
What about Yusaf Mack? Lost his last fight, but it's his only loss, and he has a ranking (#13) in the IBF (of which Lacy is former champ). He's also listed as USBA champ, so Lacy could win a meaningless strap in the process.
I don't know if HBO would put that on a WCB broadcast, though.Last edited by cupcrazy01; 09-19-2006, 09:11 AM.Comment

Quartey vs. Wright, the two best jabs in the business finally go head to head.Comment

Quartey also claims that Winky stole his style, they fight similarly but Winky is bigger and will keep Quartey off him with relative ease, IMO. Forrest looked considerably bigger than Quartey, so Winky should dwarf him.Comment

That will be a good technical fight.Comment
