    If you don't have the skills, sometimes size doesn't mean ****, if it did Willie Nelson would be the most dominant JMW and MW of the last decade, and for the record that ginger midget would tear this yellow haired walking punching bag's head clean off his shoulders. He's built like a tank, kind of like Lemieux and Tyson, short, but stocky and muscular.

    I mean, I know I have a tendency to overrate people I'm a fan of, but I have nothing on you, your sycophantic, bordering on creepy obsessions, and your delusions associated with said obsessions are off the charts.

    Lara took on a freakishly tall massive JMW in Paul Williams, and granted while he was war torn and coming off of two matches with Martinez, one grueling, the other quick and horrifically violent, Lara handled him with relative ease. (That doesn't mean Lara was necessarily better than P Will, Williams just had an aversion to southpaws, kind of like how Horn isn't better than Manny and never will be, he just happened to be the right guy with the right style.

    Well, Lara will do the same thing to this looming goon, let's see him walk right through Lara's pinpoint accurate sniper like left hand, it ain't happening, have you ever noticed guys tend to freeze up against Lara? That's because his punches hurt. The only guys that have been able to do that have been Angulo, who has a ridiculous chin, and Canelo, who as we all know now beyond a shadow of a doubt, does as well. Trout had Hurd teetering, Lara might just put his lights out.

    Canelo's size is the most overrated thing I have seen in boxing, you would think he actually did weigh 180 @ JMW ffs some people need to put the crack pipe down.

    Hurd is just as tall as PW and much more built, they aren't even close in size neither is Willie Nelson, Nelson was the same size as Harrison, actually he wasn't as built but just taller, he's a damn rail.

    Hurd was built the same size as Trout if not broader but much taller, he was far bigger overall.

    Lara getting pushed around by Angulo makes him a tough guy lol, wtf?

    Angulo is nothing special at all, Jarrett would pummel him. I have seen the rumours of Angulo weighing 174 fight night but that seems as realistic as Geale weighing 182 against Cotto straight BS.

    Hurd will walk right through Lara's best and will make him wilt, Lara didn't like the Angulo little man pressure, Hurd will bring big man pressure and his old ass will crumble. I could care less if Lara looked flashy for a few rounds, by halfway the writing will be on the wall.

    I expect Hurd will be even better for this fight, it was good prep for Lara. Lara's left hand lol gtfoh, couldn't crack an egg aka PWs chinny chin chin

    Jamie Cox is not world level.

    Cox steamed in to Groves, he gave it a real go and I do respect him for that but he isn't world class.

    Have to add @james5000 you say Cox is world level and then say you don't think he wins a title at 168-160.

    To me world level is good enough to fight for a belt, but not necessarily good enough to win one.

    Some blokes fight for a belt that aren't actually deserving /good enough. Razan Cojanu etc

    Someone like Liam Smith got lucky but I would classify him as a Jamie Cox level guy.

    Cox could win a belt if he got lucky enough but he wouldn't beat any current champion that's for sure.

    Macklin and Murray are the same, maybe an absolute prime Murray was legitimately good enough just unlucky.

    Lara vs Hurd will be just as one-sided as last night, who will @james5000 support then?
