    Lara deserves the belt. Real road warrior.

    Mauricio Lara is one of my favourite boxers. Please let him knock out Warrington one more time.

    I don't think Wood even had his hands up. I need to rewatch that but did Lara go to a neutral corner and did the ref look him over?

    It looked like he got up and the ref was about to start the fight again like after breaking them from a hold.

    10 seconds or not he could have ended up unconscious then, bomber Graham style.

    Will divide opinions like a lot of towels thrown in. Wood looked absolutely out of it for me though, was surprised the ref didn’t stop it by looking at him so I’m saying it’s a good call. Wood can go again in the rematch, his defence is poor though so I can’t see a different outcome over the course of 12 rounds.

    Hearn said if Lara wins he would make Lara Warrington III at Elland Road. Lara would definitely knock him out again.

    I wouldn’t mind seeing Lara against the Lopez guy who beat Warrington and Isaac Lowe.

    Surely Warrington doesn’t want the Lara fight. He’ll be gutted he doesn’t get a stadium fight against Wood.
