wow! well done HBO. I have to admit, I definitely didnt see this one coming.

I'm proud of Paul to be able to return after such a brutal KO.

Hopefully he's made the necessary improvements to avoid that happening again or else he won't last too long in the business.

Huge step up for Lara, maybe to soon! Hes coming from a bad performance in his last fight...

Sorry Indio, no 3rd fight with Williams for u. Williams-Lara is pretty good. Lara might get trashed but he is a southpaw and Williams 2 loses are to southpaws. Lara isn't exactly a slick southpaw though. Hope its a good fight.

F**k thats not a bad fight right there... props to HBO for wheelin & dealin on this one
