    I missed the TV fights the last 2 days how was Shumenov Campillo 2 which was on FSN and how was Brinkley on ESPN and how was Lara. The first was close on the cards the others were wide anybody see and can be of help.

    And what about Sylvestor Lyell or even the Skelton fight against a guy with like 5 or less fights

    Lara did good, he got rocked in round 3 I think and he had some problems but got a TKO in the last round, some say it was an early stoppage. Campillo picked Shumenov apart and got robbed in one of the worst decisions I've seen.

    Brinkley-Stevens is the FOTY front runner. Brinkley had a great gameplan and executed it to perfection. Stevens had a couple of moments in the first round, but then Brinkley just took over. I hope it won't be FOTY winner because it wasn't at that level, but it was a damn good fight.

    Mt stock in Lara went down.
    He fights like a dirty old veteran. Shouldn't have been stopped and even the knockdown
    could have been waved as Lara pushed him down with both arms across Brewers back.

    Lara himself was completely one dimension.
    If his opponent is throwing he stays in a shell. Brewer wasn't strong enough nor fast enough to take advantage of it. Someone with power and ability to fight on the inside yet retains a decent jab will probably beat Lara. Even a fast footed foe probably.
