    Whilst Lara is old at least he is half active; Danny's lack of activity, and slow feet, will bury him here.

    A shot LWW vs a shot LMW for arguably the number 1 spot in the division.

    Man what a fall from grace MW has had.

    Not to mention that arguably the best current MW could no longer make 160 and is now moving up to 168. MW was already a wasteland but Janibek was really the only guy that was worth watching from that division.

    It's a shame that we couldn't at least see Janibek Alimkhanuly vs Erislandy Lara.

    Garcia is semi retired. I am predicting this fight will put us to sleep for 12 rnds. Two guys waiting to counter.

    It's a very weird fight, I always thought to myself as it's been talked about, what is the point of this fight?

    Lara is damn near my age why is he still going back to the well, and Danny showed at WW he would never regain the stature he had at JWW, and then did absolutely nothing at JMW but he's going to MW now?

    Nothing about this fight makes sense. It's rare you see a fight with two formerly relevant names lack so much relevance

    Lara UD12 I guess...................:ohno
