    This was the spell of the fight that Wood was supposed to lose and it looks to me an awful lot like he's won it.

    Wood outjabs Lara early, decent right uppercut and jab from Lara even things right up again. Wood lands a nice right and bags the first minute of the always-crucial sixth. So often an important round if it goes to teh cards. Lara looks a little disorganised going past Wood after missing a punch. That body shot in the fith ahas upset Lara. To me, Lara looks like he is going to be beaten by the sharper punching in this sixth round, he looks more in control than at any other time in the fight.

    Light work.

    WOOD:1,3,5,6,
    LARA:2,4,

His mouth agape, he's gassing badly. Wood not overcommitting. Landing jabs and rights. Another right knocks Lara off balance. Wood still going to the body. Wood lands left hook. Lara lands decent body shot late.

    It appears as if Lara's gas tank is close to empty already

    Round 6
    Wood in the zone, nailing Lara with jabs, hooks and straight rights when he wants and moves out of danger. Lara tries again to swarm with about :30 left, but he needs to start that sooner because the rest of the round he's playing the role of punching bag
    10-9 Wood
    59-55 Wood
