I will give the Kid credit, he went to Leeds. He did what he does better than Josh and he lost. Galahad is complicated, he disturbed Josh before Lara and might have caused his decline.

What else can they do to make it hard on the Mexican? A big ring? Josh doesn't need to know how to box to take off running. How many Mexican judges, or ref? This is why things are the way they are. When you have to stack the deck to win, don't be shocked when you don't.Last edited by richardt; 08-26-2021, 12:21 PM.

It is all about stars, promoters, network affiliations, branding. A-side almost always gets everything in their favor, whether UK, Mexico, US, EU, wherever. That is never going to change across the globe or in particular areas.

The Lara fight was a devastating loss for Josh. Psychologically, physically, there has to be a lasting impact. It's tough to see how it goes differently, because it seems unlikely that Lara won't be in a position to lay those heavy hands on him at some point and we know it rocks him.
