Not excited but it's still a world title fight.
I don't understand why this fight was made, maybe Lara pissed someone off? Ishe Smith never gets stopped, is never in even reasonable fights and will probably apply no pressure letting Lara go through the motions. Hope I'm wrong, but it's about as pleasing a stylistic matchup on paper as Tarver-Banks was last night.
I was thinking the same but I am happy to have a lot of live boxing this weekendQuote:

Smith gets beat up.... real bad. No joke!
Nice combination sharp shooting between Pearson and Martinez here!
That was a decent scrap
Sierra is probably pushing 185. I liked Jack but just didn't know him.
:vd: ok f'k it he is a heavyweight. 200lbs :-X this is what's wrong with the sport
Sierra looks like a lawnmower stalled out on his face. Love that Smoger voted in as "Non participant". That's a compliment for a ref :-X
Steve Smoger is a sexy, sexy man. 'Take your shirt off fellas'....what a thing to say!
This is better than I anticipated. A close first round, Smith good body shots, Lara cleaner punching. Even.
Smoger stole the second round with the hug at the end. I'm surprised that there was no kiss.
Smith was buzzed there end of 2nd. Fool thinks he is Amir Mansour and that head don't move
Lara looks too sharp, good movement, Smith just not able to land clean right now. Punching air.
Smith looks like he is trying to make it rough, but he needs to get closer more to do it. Floyd there probably looking to fight the winner. :p
Smith starting to ask himself why he didn't stay in the cab. He is trying, but man he is being stuck on the end ugly.
Smith looks confused to me. Lara landing at will with his laser beams.
Thought that 7th was Lara's sharpest round. Throwing rocks at an elephant. 6 7-1 Lara
An okay fight, but nothing exciting. Had Lara winning that easily.
Predictable. Ishe "Someone hand me a Tissue" Smith had nothing to offer a guy like Lara.
no surprises here, smith has always sucked.

Lara is a tough task for anyone and I've never had a real high opinion of Smith. To win against Lara you need great speed and skills that Smith will never have. It would help to have a judge or two in your pocket too. Lol
I understand he gets a good payday, but unless it was a huge payday (like against Mayweather), I'd rather fight someone I had a chance against.
It's like they're keeping Lara busy/pacified until another huge fight can be made. Could Smith be the Lamb?
Lara won?
