Erislandy Lara Drops, Rocks, Stops Spike O'Sullivan in Eight Rounds
NEW YORK – Erislandy Lara returned to the site of his last competitive fight Saturday night and defeated another huge underdog. The 39-year-old Cuban southpaw stopped Gary “Spike” O’Sullivan at the start of the eighth round of the co-feature before Gervonta Davis and Rolando Romero met in the main event of a Showtime Pay-Per-View card at Barclays Center in Brooklyn. Lara hurt O’Sullivan badly with a left hand just before the seventh round ended, but O’Sullivan was allowed to start the eighth round.
