Comments Thread For: Wood's Trainer On Lara Missing Weight: Realistically This Shouldn't Be Happening; It's In Absolute Shambles

Wood's jist needs to do what I do and Pull Out

[BoxingParadigm]

I really hope Leigh wins, but if he goes through with it and loses, he shouldnt complain.

At least about the weight issue.

If he backs out, which might not be a bad idea, Lara will probably move up. No one will care that Wood backed out.

And if Conlan wins, there could be a rematch.

I hope both the British and Irish guys win. Mexico is also nice.


I have to go back to work after seasonal layoff so been adrinkin.

It's easier said than done to back out of the fight. It's so close to fight night that everyone will lose money, including Woods and Hearns. Although trying to find a quick replacement to take Lara's place and fight Woods would at least help salvage the show.

Hats off to Wood for showing mettle and fighting regardless, may be a bad decision though.. is there rehydration clauses for this for Lara now ?

Lara is the Champion, he can do whatever he wants, if you wanted that privilege then you should have won the first time round. New fight, new rules. Lara calls the shots now, deal with it. Just like Tyson Fury has earned the right to completely dictate contracts after beating Wlad, Delboy, War, & Old Chisora, and Beast Wilder X3, not forgetting when he beat Martin Rogan for the Irish title. Nash out

Maybe Fury will fight Joe Rogan next for the Bald ******* World Title.

This fight should be off.

Weird fight. Wood looked like the bigger stronger fighter, despite

Both teams made a deal to let the fight continue, the rehydration clause that Ben Davison suggested was 136 to not cancel the fight. (Where Lara rehydrated up to 134.5 according to the press conference)

That makes sense then, thanks for the info.
