      They were equally one sided, but Joe inflicted alot more damage because he is much more powerful. I believe he landed alot more power shots as well.
      Tito couldnt have taken the beating Lacy took.

        Whats more one sided than 120-107? (Calzone Lacy)

        Also Lacy's face after was a mess, and he had to stay here for a few days in hospital to make sure he was ok. Factor in "ima knock him out in 4" and Gary Shaw desperately calling for Lacy to be pulled out when there are 10 seconds left, and you have your answer.

          That KD wasn't legit IMO

            If i'm not mistaken, i believe Joe lost a point in the later rounds, so couldn't have been 120

              Yeah, I didnt really count that point. The performance was so dominant it didnt even need mentioning. Plus it was equalled out with the KD in the last round.

                He gave Lacy a tap round the back (humiliatingly he revealed in an interview it's something he always does to little kids who come and spar with him for fun, and he's always wanted to do it in a pro fight).

                But Exig's basic point stands... Joe won every single round, which isn't - quite - what Wright did.

                  Are you crazy? Left uppercut landed clean on the button. Lacy's legs were gone anyway. That was a clear knock down.

                    I agree with the other guy... although it was a "there but for the grace of God" knockdown and Lacy was being blasted all over the ring on wobbly legs, he didn't go down from the punch, he went down from a collision with Blow's shoulder. If you're going by the letter of the law, it wasn't a legit KD.

                      No, Wright actually clearly won every round too. He literally controlled action for like 98% of time.
