    An inactive 40% shell of Fury was literally asleep on the canvas in the dying seconds of round 12 when his energy reserves were heavily depleted and he rose from the dead like Lazarus against the hardest puncher in history :facepalm:

    I liked Woods body work. It clearly was having an impact on Lara. That half jab though is a waste of time and looks gay.

    Heard something with Bellew, Lara Woods and Warrington himself on DAZN. Maybe both of them are POS.

    Don't ever enter into a round of fisticuffs with a Brit on the cobbles with that attitude

    I'm not upset. That looping left on the button from Conlan would've probably dropped and hurt many opponents. Bracero is a featherfist and he damned near killed Danny O'Conner with a well placed straight right, boxing is crazy like that. Regardless, Conlan was fresh, Wood was badly compromised, against a much sharper boxer than Lara. Lara was compromised tonight, was running on empty, how much energy could he have truly mustered. It wouldn't be the first time a gassed guy, completely gasses himself out going for a KO, and gets KO'd himself. It was a terrible call from Davison.

    Yes it was. Gill could barely even stand up but he scored a KO of the Year and Comeback of the Year finish

    Yeah but I don’t think Wood is Fury who when he got up off the canvas was in control of his legs. Wood was more like Whyte after Fury put him down getting up and not in control of his legs.

    Imagine Ben Davidson throwing in the towel in a Fury fight and expect to live another day. Lol

    Lara is lucky. Warrington's vaseline tub was coming out of his back pocket before security held him back.

    There are two things that summarise this fight between Wood and Lara , Lara needed to land that bomb and Davison didn’t need to throw that towel in !

    Hopefully Lethal Leigh has already chinned him backstage and hocked a loogie in his face, Bret Hart-Vince McMahon style.:sisi1

    Let's just say he dropped Wood again. Wood would've totally recovered after the minute rest. I don't care what state Wood was in I've seen many fighters survive till the end of the round in similar states. We were robbed of a Fury/Gatti moment tonight by a metrosexual ponce who had Wood air jabbing all night like a sissy
