    What's he going to do; eat more of Lara's punches?

    You know I'm right, Wood wasn't hurt nearly as bad as Galahad and Lara wasn't as fresh as Kiko.

    Wood should have spat out his mouthpiece Chico style and he would have gotten through the round

    @CST80 @George Crowcroft you get nowhere asking ghosts for anything, you two good men should agree to disagree and forget about it.

    Yes but what is the backstory what did Warrington do. Heard something about Warrington abusing or disrespecting Lara’s father who is part of his team.

    You think Warrington's billy goat game was even 1% of what it is under street rules?

    Well that seems to be untrue, but if it were true, all it would prove was that Warrington was a POS as well, not that Lara wasn't.

    I think it doesn't take a genius to know it was an early stoppage. Let's all agree and move on. Jeeez :lol:

    Let's also not act like corner men are faultless humans that know everything about stopping a fight - they aren't. They're just figuring out life like the rest of us :lol: So they make mistakes. Let's also appreciate how long 10 or so seconds is and how it's ample time for a jelly legged boxer to be properly Mercer - Morrison'd.

    Let's assume Numbnuts in the corner saw something the whole world didn't see - a tired boxer on total jelly legs. Let's also assume Davison's warped mind may have decided the fight was in the balance and Lara wasn't 5 rounds down and possibly gassed.

    So Lara’s reputation of being a harder puncher gets him a stoppage, give me a break. Lol

    You think Jill Biden is hotter than Judge Jeanine, clearly you're greatly compromised in a great many ways. I'm better at judging EVERYTHING than you.:lol:

    That may be the case but he was not facing a professional assassin like Lara who we knew came to knockout Wood not win on points.
