    It's debatable, there were several great ones, but I haven zero issue with this. It's probably in my Top 3.

    I have no problem with that opinion, I thought it was a fun fight to watch. Goes to show that even fighters that are usually considered boring or unwatchable can be involved in a very exciting fight.

    Easily top 5 best fight imo, very close fight for me and Lara actually engaged which was so surprising.

    Lara impressed me with his toughness. I didn't think he'd be able to trade like that with Hurd and last the full distance.

    Very good fight, props to both fighters especially Lara, because he fought a fight he didn't have too.....or maybe he did!
