    Sounds like Martin was shafted, according to Tarver and crew bad judges decision went to Cruz in the battle of undefeated's that was probably the most entertaining fight of the night (that they didn't show :shakehead:)

    Jesus Christ, I'm seeing the replay RIGHT NOW on youtube and it clearly shows the shot landed on the chin. The impact shook Foreman's chin and he was done.

    You guys who are claiming a quit job are ****ing weird. It's honestly hilarious.

    The top angle showed Yuri's head snap with his hair reacting as well. He must be an Academy award winning actor if that was fake.

    Lara has a Glass Jaw also which is why he fights like he does. He isn't sticking that China Chin out against even someone as feather fisted as Foreman.

    Who cares if it was legit or if the retired rabbi with gammy knees pulled a quit job, the bald chap with the shiny dome who conducted Lara's post-fight interview seemed very excited by the finish and I for one really enjoyed his enthusiasm.

    What did I tell you?

    Lara gets a Golovkin style KO over a Golovkin level opponent to pad his record with another KO. Imagine if Lara went through 20 of this level opponent. He'd have a near 90% KO ratio, like someone else.......

    What I meant was the two fights were stopped prematurely just like 70% of Calzaghe's TKO wins, and Lara fought a typical Golovkin level opponent and got a predictable Golovkin style KO.
    I guess Lara is showing that two can play that game.

    What you got against Fox and who did he molest?

    The perfect punch a left counter upper to the chin disconnected the legs from the upper body.

    Lara is following Golovkin's tried and true record padding technique.
    I won't doubt that Lara's next opponent will be Roman Gonzalez at 154.

    I don't see it. Two of the replays don't show any type of concussion. Maybe Lara hitting him with his shoulder after the grazing punch is what did it if Foreman was really hurt, and not taking a dive. I didn't see a square on the jaw punch land.

    Foreman should not be fighting, he is very weak, can't punch at all, weak chin, but getting knocked out or TKO'd by Lara? egg shell chin, unless he took a dive like he did against Cotto.............
