Leigh Wood vs. Mauricio Lara Acosta & Dalton Smith vs. Billy Allington RBR.

This was the spell of the fight that Wood was supposed to lose and it looks to me an awful lot like he's won it.

Wood outjabs Lara early, decent right uppercut and jab from Lara even things right up again. Wood lands a nice right and bags the first minute of the always-crucial sixth. So often an important round if it goes to teh cards. Lara looks a little disorganised going past Wood after missing a punch. That body shot in the fith ahas upset Lara. To me, Lara looks like he is going to be beaten by the sharper punching in this sixth round, he looks more in control than at any other time in the fight.

Light work.

WOOD:1,3,5,6,
LARA:2,4,
