    Wood's issue is he's most vulnerable when he's landed a solid shot and is following it up, he's so open to counters...

    Wood - Lara
    10 : 9
    9 : 10
    10 : 9
    9 : 10 (38/38)

    Tough round to score. Wood's work was cleaner and he seemed in control but Lara landed the eye-catching shots and neither really got too much done. Tentatively giving it to that great left hook Lara landed.

    Jesus anyone with some elite class would absolutely obliterate Lara. He leaves himself so open at times and runs the same combo's over and over.

    Lara thinking taking all these big punches is a good idea?

    Round 5: 10-9 Wood

    Wood hurt Lara to the body who isn't even hiding it lol. But Lara comes back and recovers well. That Wood left hook is money tonight.

    Wood trying to feint now, Lara not interested. Nice uppercut from Wood, neat, close punch, straight line, very sharp, very important that punch, it opens up a new plane of attack for Lara to think about. Lara giving ground in small moves again. Wood wins the first minute on that uppercut. Lara gets that up-jab going, Wood lands a good right hand to the body! Lara doesn't like it! They fight it out at the ropes! Lara was hurt there. Wood is in control, barely. Digs a single right hand and looks for the uppercut, careful, careful, he's getting over-active for me when he has some success. But the round is now Wood's to lose with forty seconds left.

    And he holds the line, barely.

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

    4-1 Wood

    That right hand to the body took a lot out of Lara.
