The super middle devison is shaping up nicely.

I guess Lacy is a heavyweight now

Seriously though, eventhough he took an ass whooping it shouldnt drop him all the way out of the top 10.

DOH! HOw could I forget LACY?...

Yeah, Lacy's still exciting to watch. Just keep him away from the Boyo, isn't it?

Probably need to keep him away from Kessler as well. Lacy seems to have shown he can't cope with top class speedy boxer-punchers.

Well I just saw the Kelssler Beyer fight on YOU-TUBE.. I am pretty sure Calzaghe would have done the same to Beyer .. maybe not the power.. But But kessler only landed about 12 shots through the whole fight.. Beyeronly landed about 10.. Cal would would have to Fear Kesslers right hand and power.. But JCs hands are faster and he would ahve been peppering Beyer way more often.. Beyer is a joke

I would also think Carl Froch's name should be mentioned.. he has MORE pop in his fists than any of the above mentioned.. He has No defence.. But his chin seems quite sturdy.. DID I MENTION THE GUY CAN HIT? If you dont know who I am talking about.. Just remember his name.. WIN OR LOSE you will KNOW who he is SOON..

The guy is a comedian - not a boxer.
He may pack a punch - but he's still not a boxer.

Just listening to him talking about how he'd destroy Calzage, Kessler, Muhammed Ali, God and whoever. Then look at his mediocre acomplishments at the age of 29. Makes me think the guy can't possibly be taking himself seriously.
Therefore i assume he's a comedian.
Bit like Eddie the Eagle maybe. Brits have a tradition for that kind of thing.

Its just a shame we can't live up to the legendary sporting prowess of Denmark.

Indeed.

But then you're so good at so many other things.

I have the greatest respect for british comedy.

Though i have a hard time deciding whether Froch is actually funny or if he's just annoying. - Sometimes there's only a very fine line between.

[SHB]

Froch has a punchers chance against anyone, and has the potential to win a boxing match against anyone, or at least did.

I suspect he would be brutally beaten by a top level fighter though. And I suspect many people would like to see that - for either result.

I think Froch is more calculating than most people realise. His statements are meant to drum up interest, and even he probably doesn't believe most of it.


He is a very exciting fighter anyway. Leaves his chin out to dry and loads up on power shots, but has enough skill to adjust mid-fight and start working the jab. He'd probably beat whatever stiff currently holds the EBU belt (it seems to change very other week).
