    After seeing how Tszyu looked against a finished Spence I honestly think Lara still has enough in the tank to beat him. Lara is older but still far more skilled and elusive for a plodder.

    I had really high hopes for Tszyu after beating Mendoza, Gashua & Harrison but those tough fights against Bakrham & Fundora have not so much caused regression but seemed to have plateaued his physical & technical ability. I'll say this I'm interested in Lara vs Tszyu and if Lara he can land left hands like Spence did in the 1st half of the fight Tszyu cld be in trouble.

    Watch the suspects change their tune once Timmy gives Lara New South in the mouth it will be like "Lara was old and shot doe"

    Tim is the one you send to kill the ****ing boogeyman. Tim is a man of focus, commitment and sheer will.

    And when Tim beats him you're gonna be " Lara was too old, he looked like ****, his legs weren't there:risas3:. Tims gonna belt the **** out of Lara.
