    Wood needs to stick to the basic punches. Straights straights straights. 4-1

    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,

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

    Wood can Fury this guy in the clinch and he doesn't like that body work ONE BIT. Wood could win this I just think his durability will fold late.

    Nice fight so far. Wood seems to be in control but Lara still dangerous.

    Round 5
    Wood outworks Lara and at one point lands a nice body shot that Lara backs up from and had to be thinking of taking a knee and an 8 count. Lara is visibly slowed from that shot until the end of the round when he trys to rally
    10-9 Wood
    49-46 Wood

    I think woods has got this, Lara looks ****ed and he’s abandoned his body work and he’s not trying to set up any of his work and looks worried about what is coming back.

    Round 1 - 10-9 Wood Close
    Round 2 - 10-9 Lara
    Round 3 - 10-9 Wood
    Round 4 - 10-9 Wood
    Round 5 - 10-9 Wood

    Wood 49-46

    Wood throws the straighter punches and it is holding him in good stead as he constantly beats Lara to the punch, so to speak.
