    His opponent is terrible for televised professional boxer standards.

    He has no ability.

    He arm punches, he stands straight up, and he has no natural athletic ability or trained athletic ability for that matter.

    Boxing is a spectator sport.

    Unless you're a die hard fan, you're not going to watch a guy like this. He doesn't make action.

    Without the other guy trying to fight, there would be no fight.

    Round 7

    Delvin comes out more aggressive hits Lara with one or two looping overhand rights. Lara takes back over and starts nailing him with jabs and 1 2's.


    Lara 10-9

    They got to start making the rings smaller again or the sport will die.

    I tuned in during R7. D-Rod isn't doing much but Lara seems to be putting on a nice clinic, no? And the commentators mentioned there has been at least one knockdown? Why the boos? :huh

    The fight is terrible. Somebody's dad is out there fighting, and an "elite" professional boxer can't end the show.

    Round 8

    More of the same, Delvin has nothing for Lara, Lara wobbles Delvin once.

    Lara 10-9

    So outpointing your opponent isn't a valid way to win? Lara's showing some beautiful boxing, far as I can tell.
