Simple. Hurd took the fight to Lara and kept constant pressure on the Cuban. Even when Lara stayed in the pocket, which was totally out of character for Lara (kudos to Lara btw), Hurd got the better of Lata in most of the inside exchanges. And the body work Hurd did to Lara was a real game changer. I bet the poor guy’s pissing blood this morning. Im not a Lara hater, but he got beat by a bigger and stronger man who didnt gas out in the latter rounds. Lara was done by the 10 ro Nd and was in survival mode for the rest of the fight. If Hurd doesnt land a fight with little Charlo after this, I hope Lara gets a shot at Charlo and see how good the “lions only” fighter really is.
And for the record, the officiating in all three of the televised fights was absolutly atrocious. It ‘s time to bring in a new generation of refs that aren’t vested ( or paid off for better words) in the sport
