Comments Thread For: Lara: Trout Was Out 17 Months, On Back End of Career Versus Hurd

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Jarrett Hurd's stoppage of Austin Trout is commonly considered the most noteworthy win of the IBF 154-pound champion's career. Hurd became the first fighter to beat Trout by knockout or technical knockout when Trout declined to come out of his corner for the 11th round October 14 in Brooklyn. Trout is a former WBA super welterweight champion who soundly defeated Miguel Cotto and was competitive in his loss to Canelo Alvarez.

This fight is going to be a great fight. We will see if Hurd can bring the best out of Lara. I think Lara has been a better fighter since training out of Houston with the Charlos so we will see if Hurd has the skill to beat him

Lara by UD or MD. Unless Laras legs are done which I have seen no indication of whatsoever hes gonna be peppering Hurd while on the move. Hurds best shot is to fight like Angulo but people forget Angulo had to eat 3 or 4 punches just to get close enough to land one. By the end of that fight Angulos head looked like it had been kicked around by a soccer team.

Laras legs will be his key to victory.
Regardless of who takes it, the winner better get the Charlo fight next winner of that is king of 154

Can't wait for April 7th! Should be good action from the opening round of the first undercard!

Trout didn't utilize his height against Lara and got lured into applying pressure which isn't his style. Hurd is very tall and does know how to utilize his height. He will be content picking off Lara from the outside and force Lara to leap in where I can see him getting caught by big shots. I think Hurd brings an end to Lara's consistency.

I'm afraid Hurd will be seriously exposed in this one. I am picking Lara via trademark ho-hum decision.

Trout has been irrelevant for the past 4yrs

how TF does Hurd melt down to 154? that's the question.
