Comments Thread For: Mauricio Lara Blasts Leigh Wood in Seventh, Captures WBA Title

[Clegg]

Bad decision by Davidson there. Wood was a domestic level guy not long ago, might never get another title shot.

WTF why they not letting Lara celebrate?

Because they dont want a riot to kick off maybe... This is Leigh hometown... and the crowd got abit hostile soon as the fight got stopped.

Man boxing gotta love it, where did that come from.. F Davison wtf man.. how is he going to talk himself out of this one... Geez.. had about 10 seconds to survive.. Wood has great heart.. let him show it. Looks like Davison panicked.. hope Wood sacks him, gotta let him try to survive the round!! Wood had enough wits about him to complain instantly about the towel.

Congratz Mauricio !!

Yep I agree, he was done

I mean, will never know how he would’ve recovered because he didn’t get a chance, but even when he was stood in the corner after the fight, he still looked unsteady

Yep, his legs were gone in the corner!
Even when stood still his legs were like jelly and not fully supporting him.

Ben may not be a great trainer, but that was a great call. Wood was in a different galaxy for several minutes after that hook.

Wood was miles ahead on the cards, has showed he can recover before, in front of his home fans, Lara is knackered and theres 10 seconds left in the round...

Yes he could've and probably would've been knocked out. But no need for the towel.

Absolutely brutal from Ben Davison. Let the man go out on his shield.

I can see why Davidson did it but with 10 seconds left in the round......
