What software is needed to download. Which Program should I use?

Theres quite a few torrent clients you can use, I use azureus but if your new to torrent clients I suggest a simple client instead as Azureus has too many options.

Try this 1

http://www.bittorrent.com/

You just go to the boxing site, find the torrent, save to your computer and open it with that program and it will download.

What a load of shit.

Calzaghe gave him a sustained beating, with a mixture of classic boxing and toe to toe exchanges.

Lacy didnt land anything in return because Calzaghe was too quick and Lacy's footwork was woeful.

If Calzaghe was holding so much why didnt Lacy, the so called strongman, break from the clinches and pummell Joe?

Because Lacy is just not good enough

One of the poorest world title challengers I have seen

Is this the best the Yanks have to offer at 168.

Dear oh Dear oh Dear

Taken from Ian McNeilly's report...

www.britishboxing.net wrote:"Losing sucks," mused Lacy's promoter Gary Shaw in the post-fight press conference. "It wasn't to be. He ran up against the better man. They had a game plan and Joe executed the game plan and Jeff didn't execute Dan's (Birmingham) game plan. The plan was not to throw one overhand right. Jeff is still a young fighter and hasn't had the experience Joe has had. I'm not making any excuses. This is a bitter pill for me to swallow. Joe should now get fights like Roy Jones and Tarver and for me, he beats both hands down."

Lacy's trainer Dan Birmingham was as fulsome in his praise for Calzaghe as he was in his recriminations for his own fighter. "I've never seen a better performance by any boxer - an American, never mind a Brit. It was a clinic, he took him to school, a performance like Winky Wright puts on. A masterful job. A master of defence and timing. My hat is off to him.

"Jeff wasn't hurt... he was discouraged. We had more than two plans but when your fighter won't execute them, what can you do?"

Good report, by the way.

The fact that Lacy hasn't given an interview yet or appeared in public is a bit worrying. I hope he's ok and its only his pride that was damaged in that fight.

jeej · Post by **jeej** » 06 Mar 2006, 08:17

One of Lacy's camp said he isnt hurt, just a bit gutted. So must be his pride.

A couple of his fights have been shown over here, he does look good all round although I'm not sure he'll be better than Lacy.

numpty · Post by **numpty** » 06 Mar 2006, 08:52

I too hope he is OK and will fight again, after all, he is usually and exciting fighter. I should imagine his pride is severely hurt and I got the message that he was a shy individual anyway.

steve689 · Post by **steve689** » 06 Mar 2006, 10:15

I don't think he will ever be the same again, Calzaghe gave him a beating in there and he will be tentative and probably gun shy when he returns. They will need to put him in with a series of stiffs who he can bully about a bit, but keep him away from movers with speed. Can't see him getting in with Kessler, the Dane would jab his head off his massive shoulders, maybe he should cut his losses and travel to Germany to take on Beyer if he would accomodate him.

Shirow · Post by **Shirow** » 06 Mar 2006, 11:14

Problem is Beyer probably has the 2nd best movement of any of this opponents to date. Don't know if he still has i haven't seen him in years.

Obviously much easier said than done but Calzaghe has shown the perfect blueprint to completely nullify his strengths.

I asked a couple of Lacy's camp on Sunday lunchtime at the hotel if he was OK and this is pretty much how they answered.
