    So, @Drew101 , you wanna discuss terms? (I've never done one of these before, so I don't actually know the customs)

    Sentencing length... and do we decide on prearranged images ahead of time or will it be dealer's choice on April eighth?

    I would back Lara but my rule is never back a Cuban after the Rigo debacle

    It's going to be more like Martinez-Chavez, only Hurd will get to him before the 12th.

    Huge skills advantage for Lara, but he doesn't have it in him to fend off Hurd for the distance.

    Who you guys got we are just five days away. I honestly have never doubted lara could lose in all his fights. However now I am scared for lara he has aged alot more . He hasn't fought high level competition since canelo. Lara is older . Fighting nothing but fringe contenders lately may have affected him from getting use to the high pressures he once was use to. Hurd 6'1 27 years old stopped trout 10 tko. I know lara is the favorite but dam it lara is not the same . Hurd could possibly stop him . Like lara said hurd could ger careless and could get stopped

    Lara is fighting a cruiserweight in disguise.

    By the time Lara gets done with him Hurd will look like a compacted Turd.

    Sadly for Hurd, he'll look like a Brontosaurus by the time Lara finally does start to gas. His head is like a straight left magnet.

    I fancy Lara for this on points. Hurd is a monster sized Light-Middle, but Lara can be elusive enough to not be worn down for a late stoppage and Hurd isn't hard to find.
