Jones vs. Lacy Verbal Deal in Place For July in Tampa

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

There appears to be a "verbal deal" in place for Roy Jones Jr.(53-5, 39KOs) to face Jeff Lacy (25-2, 17 KOs) on a July date in Tampa, Florida. Jones told the Los Angeles Times that he plans to promote the event through his promotional company Square Ring [that translates to an independent pay-per-view unless a network picks it up].

Jones will outclass Lacy...... Easy

I was hoping for that CW belt!

Both are past it, but Jones is gonna whoop on him. Jones right now is still better than lacy ever was in his prime.

Lacy is not fighting fit at all. He should have this fight and slip out the back door.

[Joe2608]

Roy Jones has this one in the bag.

[KESSLER]

Lacy never was. The Calzaghe fight made him out to be something he never was. Calzaghe hurt him in more ways than one.

They could fight in Lacy's house, Jones will still be the crowd favorite. Lacy is a little *****. I hope Jones finishes him and I hope it's not PPV.

Man what happend to all that Adamek talk?

Fighting another Lacy is the last thing Jones needs. I think hes proved he can beat C level guys by now.
