If Lacy sucked so much then why were most experts predicting him to walk through Calzaghe?

Was he overrated? Yes, obviously, but he was not a bad fighter by any means. He was a very good fighter that showed glimpses of something special but got outclassed by a better fighter and never recovered mentally.
It's not much different from what happened to Pavlik after he fougt Hopkins. Pavlik did have better wins though
Then please post the fight where he showed glimpses of something special.

So then what did he do that was impressive? Post the fight.

He was a champion so I won't say he was a bad fighter but anyone who watched him against any decent contender could see he just wasn't in Calzaghe's class. That was a clear case of the American media badly overhyping a mediocre pug and underrating a long-time, stready champ.

Dude, there's nothing I can say that will convince you to think that he ever looked impressive. You say he wasn't a bad fighter, but then shyt on the man every other sentence. You obviously don't like dude and it shows in your posts. A good amount of people were impressed by his power and willingness to fight hard and still break dudes down with power late in the fights where he would get out-boxed and struggle early on. Obviously you're not one of those guys that would be impressed by that. Nobody saying he was some great fighter. He was a breath of fresh air in a division that wasn't making noise, but you won't even give him that credit so its......:manny: nikkas just be wanting to argue for the sake of it knowing damn well they not trying see shyt from any other perspective but their own. :snoop: There's no use in going back in forth with this shyt. Lacy never impressed you in the slightest and he was overrated as fukk to you.

Once again we get it.

You're right, there's nothing you can say. Now if there's something you can show, feel free to show it. LOL @ me trying to argue for the sake of arguing. This is a message board. If you think he looked impressive, post the fight. If you can't then yes, feel free to stop blowing hot air.

You already said you seen his fights and wasn't impressed. The fukk I need to show you anything for. :snoop: You don't really like dude, said he was overrated a bunch of times. That's the end of it. This nikka plans on quoting me 10 more times to say the same shyt. :whoa::heh:

This nikka can't even read. I never said I thought he was impressive. I said a good amount of people thought he was impressive, hence the reason he was so hyped and overrated in the 1st place. Just because he ain't impress you don't mean he ain't impress anybody else. Your view on him is your own opinion.

Have a jaded opinion about something and act like everybody else should feel the same way brehs.

I can't read? This is what you said:

He was a very good fighter that showed glimpses of something special

All I'm asking is for you to show me these performances that led you to say that. Shouldn't be so hard. Instead, I'm getting "don't quote me" and "I never said that." Not here to argue semantics. But I get it...hard to show something that doesn't exist.

That was me that said that :ufdup:

A lot of people were impressed with the string of stoppages he had coming into the Calzaghe fight (with the ho hum decision vs. Shieka sandwiched in there). I know the competition was fairly weak but that's what it was.

Truthfully, I think most people were :ohlawd: over his physique and the fact that he was an Olympian
