    Sad reality, that fight don't need a rematch. Give Lara a better fighter, He proved that he is better than hypejob.

    Lmao Warrington is no hypejob. I don't even think Lara would beat Frampton or Galahad.

    Then why he lost like that ? why fight was not competitive ? Lara never fought someone top 100, his last fight before Warrington was a guy ranked 449

    Lara never fought 12 rounds, never outside AMERICA. No hypejob but exposed by unknown mexican who has never fought someone decent ? Really ?

    Why there is a rematch clause for something that is not even a tittle fight ?

    Josh can win a close decision if he doesn't engage with Lara. Josh's style is not exactly fancy Dan so it'll be interesting to see if he change it enough to win.

    No it's not. It's a boss move from a guy that wants to right a loss & get his career kick started again, I admire him for it, he didn't have to fight him again. I think he gets the job done here too, there were a lot of extenuating circumstances last time, fair play to Lara he did the job done & suprised folks but I think Josh can regroup. We'll see..

    It happens, even great fighters like PAC, Tszyu, JLC, Duran etc lost to what I would term lesser fighters.. & no before any of u mouthpieces chime in I'm not comparing him to them in the grander scheme of things before you start.. they are simply illustrating a point .. sometimes fighters who are supposed to lose pull of an upset .. it doesn't stop fighters from regrouping & rebounding .. you can learn from a loss too.. Josh is better than that loss.. he's beaten better fighters than Lara.. hopefully he can rectify it & get the Xu fight going..

    Lara will be getting a good wedge for this and he should fancy his chances.and fair play to Warrington for taking it because he got absolutely bludgeoned the first time.

    This is the only step to redemption that Warrington could have taken imo.

    He's gonna have to prove himself again to be a top FW, get this fight done, then chase the Russell Jr fight.

    Rumour has it that he will have Marcelo Bielsa in his corner for this fight.

    Ballsy move from the wee Loiner.

    He could have bypassed Lara and still positioned himself to fight for another trinket but he wants to right this.

    I don't think the result will be any different, I'm not sure Josh has any other tricks in his bag to change things up..he won't retire wondering though.

    I would look to get tickets for this. 20K at Headingley Stadium, be a great atmosphere.
