Comments Thread For: Erislandy Lara, Brian Castano Battle To a Split Draw Verdict

[Mammoth]

Castano is probably going to win this

[Mammoth]

Can Castano keep this pace up? Good stuff so far

Yes, he can

[Robbie Barrett]

Lara is landing far more clean punches. Castano lands a few scruffy shots and the commentators are on his ****. ****ing garbage.

Nice to see a fighter not allow himself to get held, rarely do you see that.

What is Mark McGwire doing in the 2nd row back there

[joesaiditstrue]

way too much clinching by Lara, ugh

Lara came back to life in the 5th. Interesting. 3-2 Lara.

Was listening to something the other day and they were saying they couldn't understand why boxers don't go to the body against big guys more.

Logic being the big fellas are hard as nails, but haven't lived exactly an athlete's life. The body is where they are softest.

I notice it more from guys with big amateur careers (Ortiz fits this mould) they’re trained 20 years to headhunt, and once they go pro they start going to the body. Once fatigue sets in, muscle memory kicks in and you lose your strategy...just my opinion on it.

5th to the Puerto Rican, 3-2 Lara

Lara doesn't have the style to "TAKE IT FROM THE CHAMP" Castano outworking him IMO
