    Lara is more stationary in the later part of his career but hes still an elusive fighter. I think his style is all wrong for Garcia, but Swifts timing is still pretty good, hes got a punchers chance if he can land one of his big counter right hands or left hooks. If not Lara will win a comftorable decision.

    I think Lara still has enough to take this. If he loses, he's done IMHO.

    Garcia is a live dog given the age of Lara. Very interesting matchup. Lara doesn't have the legs of Thurman anymore and Keith ran all over the ring in order to beat Garcia

    Damn I was really hoping to see Lara vs GGG. I’ll still see this one though, both of them are washed up at this point.

    I think Garcia wins it. Lara is super shot.
