    Lara missed weight, so only Wood stands to win the WBA title that he lost to Lara in February.

    Is Wood running it back too soon? Who y'all think wins? Wood was ahead before getting stopped...

    Lara weighed 129.8 which only just below the super featherweight 130.0 limit.

    Regardless of the weight you have to fancy Lara by stoppage again.

    Pretty messed up. Hope gets a lump of change for Lara's unprofessionalism.

    Is it definitely still going ahead? Wouldn't blame Woods team to cancel. Huge props if they continue cannot see it ending well but would hope that Wood can get a win. He was winning the first fight and looked like Lara was tiring although he's always dangerous.

    Nothing against Lara but I'm rooting for Wood. The most likely scenario is Lara by KO again.

    I have a feeling Wood wins by gritty decision. Lara looks overly friendly at the weigh in and is probably overconfident.

    Wood by UD. Think he’ll be much more careful and get a UK decision.

    They forgot to pack Navarrete's scales.
