Rare Tuesday night card. On paper Trout should command this one but he has had some shakey moments since the Lara fight with guys no more rugged than the 24-3-1 Hernandez can be. Trout is an easy guy to like and a sound boxer, hope he can rebound into another high profile fight.
Jesus M Rojas 21-1-1 (15) takes on Jorge Lara 27-0-1 (19) in a standard issue Puerto Rico-Mexico rivalry at featherweight.

Top minds think alike ;D. Just merged two with identical titles. Cheers bud
It's all good. I see Big John McCarthy setting at ring side, maybe he's wanting to ref boxing.Quote:

We're lagging for some reason, taking quite a while to navigate forum?! Tough start for Lara with multiple cuts from heads. Rojas walking him back, shoulder bulling shorter Lara in 6th, has him flustered.
Shame its called on cuts, going to cards have it 4-2 Lara but who knows. Needs a rematch for sure
Lara v Rojas ends in technical draw 57-57 all. Elbiali is like a more athletic Omar Sheika ;D Big square truck. This should be a shoot out
Ohh. Elbiali drops him ugly and hard! Ref waves it off minute in, bit of an early stoppage as he was still rising
Lara unhappy with the draw but it was fair, in my opinion.
Forum slow as hell. I should be able to comment on the Trout fight by tomorrow morning.
I like Albiali, the man hits hard.
Hernandez didn't make Jr middle limit at first and comes in unofficial 175! Hope Trout keeps it smart, dude is a tank.
I was thinking it was my phone!Quote:

Trout full control. Picking him apart with sharp uppercuts and righthooks. The way Hernandez is moving doubt he keeps it up..Ohh :o Joey looked like he pulled up, needed break and fouled Trout to buy time That was dirty man
Greg the hammer Valentine would be proud of that, full on body slam by Hernandez. He looks done mentally. Hope Trout beats em up now:-X
Trout with flurry involving some nice body work for the KO
Trout absolutely brutalized the right side of him. Great bodyshot ko
Good win for Trout but not unexpected. Hernandez made a big mistake with the body slam, Trout shifted into high gear and became real busy.
Ahh... here I am. Yes... good win for Trout. Nasty body slam by Hernandez (WTF was his thinking).
Forum's behaving normally today, thank goodness.
;D
Damon, completely missed this. I'm a big Trout fan, glad to hear he one.
Bad fight; hurt both careers. Hernandez looked a coward that wouldnt/couldn't fight. But he made Trout look like crap as well.
@TitoFan what channel was this on, I'm bummed, would have loved to have seen trout. Hopefully YouTube or a link here tomorrow.Quote:

You can only sort out what is standing across from you. Trouts legs looked good and he literally dictated every aspect in what was nothing more than a showcase. As much as the head was open he whipped the body on all fronts and left him in a heap.Quote:
