    Not sure about that. I think he just had Josh's number. You don't hook with a heavier handed hooker. Josh just met his stylistic mismatch, but I don't he can beat too many of the other titlists in the division. Ironically Josh would probably beat homs of the people who would beat Lara. That's boxing for you.

    His wife is called Barbara? And he's 22?

    Something isn't adding up here.

    Oh please can we? I'd pay for that, and I think those guys would do it.

    Instant classic.

    Not a great show for Hearn at all.

    I had a feeling this was coming Lara had fought 4 times in 2020.

    Kid Galahad is having a field day I bet, but respect Warrington he has a fantastic resume and he’ll be back, I think with no crowd that affected him more than any other fighter.

    I don't think he looked right after he caught an uppercut in the first round, his gait was a little off afterwards which is always a worry, definitely a balance problem, maybe a burst eardrum or something but he looked worrying frail after that first round.

    Obviously I wish him well and hope he is Ok, I don't think he returns the same fighter.

    No, I am just pointing out a reality in boxing. You need to have a solid chin in this sport. Some fighters have them, others don't. It appears Warrington is in the latter category.

    A future where people probably avoid him. The lad can obviously bang and I'm not sure some fighters are going to be keen to fight him unless there's something on the line.

    As if he was cut in the second round and that’s how small the cut stayed after another 7ish rounds, that says it all really
