Motivation is a great thing but you have still have the talent I cant Mick beating Lara even an old Lara he has just too much of everything.

I forgot Zerafa is only 31, that Quillin fight was a long time ago. I've always liked Donaire so hope he does well as a trainer, though I think Lara will have to be shot for them to pull it off.

All the great Cuban amateur's have been stopped with age and he's no exception, but you have to be talented to pull it off.

Yeah think he was only 22 when he fought quillin but It does seem like he's been around for a long time but still a pretty young age in the sport

I could see someone like Crawford fighting the winner of this if he doesn't fight eubank jr up at 160 next

Zerafa's real target is Tszyu. Fight is his biggest dream and money fight in Australia.
They've been doing back and forth in the Australian media hurling insults to each other.
It will never happen if he loses to Lara. It's mere coincidence they're on the same PBC cards.

Lara has to get old eventually, might be ripe for the picking here for zerfara
