I think Jeff Lacy has what it takes to make this fight competitive and come out on top. Jeff is younger, stronger and if he can keep Roy on the defense where Roy doesn't fight back he'll win it. Jeff can be non-competitive too if someone puts him on the defense where he just stays behind his gloves, although I don't see Roy having the work rate like Calzaghe to make that happen.

Roy UD or late stoppage.

Lacy has slowed down a lot,his power is completely gone and has arguably lost all of his last few fights.He's just terrible at this point.Going up to 175 will make him even slower.

Jones jnr for me. I dont feel that Lacy will fight at a fast enough pace to wear Roy down and Roy is still a quality fighter at his own pace.
I would like Lacy to somehow recapture some of his past form but just cannot see it.

Jones about 177-111 ish for me.

Funny the poll has Lacy 3-1 but the posts have Jones Jr. 3-1.

Jones by wide decision. His speed and craftiness will be too much for Lacy to deal with, I think we'll see Lacy coming out bombs away for a couple of rounds trying to make Jones uncomfortable but after a few rounds I think Lacy will just be following Jones around the ring throwing 1 shot at a time while getting potshotted from the outside.

Roy Jones Jr. is unfortunately not in his prime anymore. When he was on top, to me he was unreal, this kind of speed, those things he showed, he looked unbeatable. He was so much fun to watch. He still is a very good fighter and Jeff Lacy imo is too slow to give Roy any problems. I think Roy will win a relateively easy decision, maybe even stop Lacy. Lacy is an exciting fighter, but Calzaghe has taken something out of him, i don´t see him getting to the level, he was, before he took on Joe. And even on that level, he once was, he was not as good as he was ranked by most imo. He was fun to watch, but he was limited, no way in Roy´s class.

Jones by a drawn out and safe UD. I see RJJ pot-shotting his way to a potentially dull decision. Lacy's only chance is to get on the inside and land a few bombs, but he's too 1-D for even a shot RJJ. Taylor showed a stiff, repetitive jab is more than enough to keep Lacy at bay, and I see RJJ throwing just enough of them while mixing in his usual hands down antics.
