    Tough to say. Iron Man looked a little uncomfortable when Vanes brought the pressure and if he pulls straight back like he did against Ota, he gets waxed. Either way, I think Hurd gives him exponentially more problems than Jackson, Hatley and Lubin combined.

    Well, if ginger has a 'Mexican special' quarter pounder, that might make all the difference.

    I did. I still didn't see it. What I did see is Hurd walking through Lara's best punches.

    Williams will get outmuscled against Hurd. Only guy that's favored against Hurd at 154 is Charlo. That's it.

    True but he will land the bigger cleaner shots on hurd all night. A prime Lara would have beat hurd hes all wrong for a faded lara. Charlo isnt faded like trout and lara were he's prime and he's simply too complete for hurd.

    Ofcourse he was. He had 10-15 pounds on him.

    sounds plausible, charlo better be in the best shape of his life to pull it off, though.

    Truth is an old Lara beat his ass who is a weight bully. It seems boxing these days is a competition of making the weight with biggest success.

    I still can’t get why people don’t like Hurd? He doesn’t claim to be the most skilled dude just hard working, determined and strong. I gave Hurd the 10th which would have made it a majority draw if no KD in the 12th.

    Awesome fight, Pimp I normally co-sign but I can’t seem to agree that Charlo easily wins a fight versus Hurd he’s awkward and a bit more athletic than most seem to realize. I also have an incredible prediction record. Lol

    Charlo is much better now than he was back then. Years of sparring with Spence his brother and lara will make you a much better fighter.

    You can't knock him for that. Those are his abilities in this division. You're going to have to knock him out to take him out of the fight.

    For sure. But you gotta admit that Hurd still brings more to the dance than the last couple of guys Iron Man has faced.
