Leigh Wood vs. Mauricio Lara Acosta & Dalton Smith vs. Billy Allington RBR.

and there is precedent that the fighter that is hurt gives it right back. Wounded animal is the most dangerous

 

lol watch the fight. Wood dominated until he got stopped. It happens. It's boxing. But saying Wood was beaten up is ridiculous.

 

He was still stumbling around so he wasn't totally recovered. I mean if he was hit again with the same shot, and Koed would Davison have been branded a poor cornerman? The answer is possibly but probably not. The ref had checked Wood, had done his job. The fight goes on.

And what was Davison screaming ''Stop the %£^%$ fight? or something?''

 

what u talking about wood lit him up the whole fight with left hooks and straight right hands at will. His only mistake was playing with his food for too long. never a good idea letting a crude power puncher live

 

Wonder what he was thinking/saying when CEJ was given a second chance vs Smith? Not 'wave it off' for sure

 

The fact is Davison didnt have faith in his boxer to keep going against a pretty spent Lara. That's not great confidence. What did he see? I'd want a cornerman who understands my boxing and character better than me. They let Fury continue because they had faith he'd avoid the punch again. They didn't think the same of Wood and that's not good.

 

Early stoppage, but psycho lara was gonna get in on that ass as soon as the ref let them go back at it, and it wouldnt have ended pretty for wood.

 

Wood boxed well and may have been ahead on points but he was definitely losing the war. Lara was not planning a win on points but to knock him out. Which he know he would because he could get to him. If Wood had been a proper ring general then he would have known his defence had to be on point but it was not and Lara was able to prepare him to get stopped. Serge my friend as you know I am not sentimental about boxing. I call it as I see. Before the fight I was not sure but in round 1 which was close I saw something and in round 2 it was confirmed for me which is why after round 2 I wrote on this thread that Lara is now going to stop him because he can get to him and more importantly when he does he has a real effect. Lara is not the type you go into a shoot out with. You need to negate him, get to him and not allow him to get to you. When Wood was hitting Lara it was not having the same effect.

 

Wood needs different tactics defensively because if Lara can get to him he will knock him out again.

 

They let Fury continue because Freddie Roach was in the corner. Don’t forget Davidson apparently was crying in the corner when Wilder put Fury down in round 12.
