    This is why i just share my opinion and walk away never reading replies 99% of the time. I read one or two at the top of my never ending nitification list, get annoyed, reply to one and remember why it's best not to engage with people who'd loose a basic debate vs a jr. high school kid. Just like life and work, folks come from the same pool of messed up humans that make up the wold we live in...

      I don’t think there’s ever a right time to fight a Cuban those guys fight well even in their 40s

          Dan Rafael once described this guy as “the club fighter who got knocked out by David Lemeiux” and that pretty much sums it all up.

          This will be the easiest fight of Lara’s career

                It going to be less about what Spike can throw that how many punches he can withstand. Lara throws bombs now that he can't run a country mile in reverse for what feels like 24 rounds. He's ready to go down in a firefight for that rematch with Nelo, after Nelo loses to GGG for double the money!

                  Stoppage losses to both Chris Eubank Jr and Munguia, ranked 1 and 2 respectively by the WBA, yet somehow he gets the shot at the title before either of them? Either it's yet another example of WBA corruption/maladministration or Lara isn't feeling all that confident in himself.

                    I like Spike for the entertainment value but any version of him gets shutout by any version of Lara. Battered and stopped or Lara needs to retire.

                      lol Lara's punch resistance doesnt matter. He could have Khan level china, this guy isnt landing anything.
