Saw no Lacy vs. Reid, so throw out my two cents...

Up and comer Lacy, flashy and fast vs. unstoppable veteran Reid. Lacy is more flash than power, and has been groomed for big exposure. Pretty good arsenal, accumalitive power, but not a ko artist. 19-0 15 KO's but opponents quality goes up ko's stop. Fighting in his hometown, place has sro. The St. Pete native will be fighting for the first time at St Pete Times Forum. His opponent unstoppabe Robin Reid is a rock headed veteran Brit, with zero quit. Vast more experience in these type of bouts. Never been stopped 38-4-1. However, he also lacks the power to KO anyone else himself. He has not knocked out anyone since 2003. During his prime from 1997 - 2002 he never even knocked a ranked fighter down. He might be in for his last hurrah, but the line is tilted heavy on the kid. Being this is a hometowner, I will go with

Lacy by dec. +1.45
Ov 11 1/2 -.30
Draw 25-1, or ov 20-1 1/4 unit.


The actual line is -4.50 or so. Bad line, as it is his toughest fight yet. I think if it is close the superbiased crowd can swing a decision to the busier fighter. With neither fighter ever being stopped, I will stick with that. Goes to the cards, maybe a screw job, or a earned decision for the kid.

Best Wishes...OF:howdy:

Reid would have to murder him to get a decision. He lacks power so Lacy shouldn't get KOed even though his chin is untested.

Lacy likely wins, but it's priced in too steep. A pass here.

Heart says Reid, Head says Lacy

Lacy KO7 for those that didn't know.
